Your current situation

Perhaps there is an area of your business that could function more effectively, or are you are faced with the challenge of selecting and implementing a new system for your organization?

Maybe your business has grown so that processes that worked a number of years ago are not so efficient now; possibly you want to take advantage of the exciting advances that you’ve seen in integrated systems, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) or Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems.

Maybe you’ve already asked Lateral Solutions to come in for a meeting and provided you with a Target Report that has highlighted the areas that require development.

The next step would be a full Business Analysis.

Business Analysis

Lateral Solutions offers an in-depth analysis with an insightful set of recommendations to improve your operational effectiveness and efficiency. We have particular expertise within the accounting and finance function, but operate at a business-wide level. 

Our business analysts are accredited with industry recognised tools of analysis. We’ll investigate any existing system in detail and document process flows, talk to the management team responsible for the processes as well as the staff charged with making the system work on a day-to-day basis. In short, we conduct thorough stakeholder analysis.

We’ll listen to the challenges that you face, find out how fast you need to implement a new solution and what budget you’ve put aside.

Key Recommendations

The result of all our independent analysis will be the culmination of our advice in a document called Key Recommendations.

The Key Recommendations report will contain a detailed breakdown of our analysis into key areas:

1. Existing Analysis / Future Recommendations

• Processes
• Systems
• Software
• People

2. Budget Considerations

3. Timescales

4. Summary

Costs

The cost of producing Key Recommendations can be quite accurately calculated once we’ve had an initial meeting with you, and/or after we’ve produced our free Target Report.

Our Key Recommendations report offers excellent value for money because the analysis of your existing systems ensures that you are making the best of what you already have before you invest in new resources.

In addition Key Recommendations can be used to share with other managers in the business and used as a discussion document for directors (and the Board) before the Business Process Re-engineering stage is begun and changes are made.
