The PIVOT Methodology

Five stages from diagnosis to lasting change.

  1. 01 — Plan

    Diagnose the real constraint holding back growth.

    Planning is the most important step. Without proper strategic planning methodologies, a business is potentially set up to fail.

    • SWOT analysis
    • Value curve
    • BCG strategy palette

  2. 02 — Implement

    Build and execute the change.

    Once the plan is endorsed by all stakeholders, resources are ramped up in stages matched to the complexity of the program.

    • People — training, recruitment, rotation
    • Processes — improvement, re-engineering
    • Systems — upgrade, implement, retire

  3. 03 — Verify

    Prove that it's working.

    The implementation is scrutinized against the KPIs and metrics set during planning and implementation.

    • KPI definition & dashboard
    • User acceptance tests
    • Stress tests, when needed
    • Internal process audits

  4. 04 — Operate

    Make the new way the normal way.

    An operating plan sized to the risk. Few risks: ramp up quickly. Many risks: ramp up gradually.

    • Risk-sized operation plan
    • Staged ramp-up

  5. 05 — Transform

    Compound the gains over time.

    A gradual, iterative transformation gives internal and external stakeholders time to adapt and adopt, reduces risk and keeps time to market short.

    • Progressive, iterative rollout
    • Internal & external communication plan

Going forward is going digital

Enhancing your operational efficiency through digital adoption puts you at the forefront of your industry. PIVOT guides you through the digital transformation process.

Two principles shape every engagement. Diagnosis first: we find the real problem before we propose a solution. Systems, not silos: we fix root causes across the whole business rather than patching isolated symptoms.
