GDM Consulting subscribes to the philosophy of “Plan
your work and work your plan.” With an effective plan our clients can focus on
critical tasks, communicate goals, and measure performance against established
objectives.
Regardless of project scope, GDM Consulting will:
develop cohesiveness among managers using a team building approach that focuses
on results; formulate teams to streamline processes, improve productivity and
substantially reduce costs; and, develop missions, goals and objectives for self-managing teams that
vertically link with the company's strategic direction.
Key Benefits
- Gain a better understanding of the competitive market
- Increase revenues by identifying and leveraging key differentiators
- Ensure scalability for continued profitability
Capabilities
- Developing Key Corporate Statements
- Whether it be at a corporate or departmental level, or both, GDM
Consulting will work with the client to develop and refine each of the
following items. These precursors to a formal strategic plan will be
clearly documented and communicated.
- - Value Statement
- Statement of Purpose
- - Corporate Vision
- Mission
- - Goals and Objective
-
- SWOT Analysis and Mapping
- Evaluating internal (Strengths and Weaknesses) and external
(Opportunities and Threats) criteria is a critical element in strategy
development. It is only once a SWOT review is complete that the future
strategy may be readily apparent or, as is more likely the case, a series of
strategies or combinations of tactics will suggest themselves. GDM
Consulting can effectively support the client organization in performance of
a complete SWOT analysis.
-
- Methodically Preparing the Strategic Plan
- GDM Consulting will partner with clients to review existing or create
new strategic plans. A critical review of past performance by
organizational leaders and the preparation of a plan beyond normal budgetary
horizons will require a certain attitude of mind and predisposition. Some
essential points which will be observed during the review and planning
process include the following:
- The plan will relate to the medium term (2-4 years)
- Plan development will be separated from day-to-day work
- Progress of plan development will be reviewed periodically
GDM Consulting will prepare a comprehensive business plan which will include
the identification of critical issues, line of business definition, market
and financial anlayses, scalable financial models, and appropriate action
plans.
- Creating Departmental and Functional Operations Plans
- Developing a corporate strategic plan is not enough in a large, mature
organization. Each Line of Business (LOB) must have its own plan, as
does each functional area. GDM Consulting will work with functional
leaders to develop these plans and ensure their alignment with the corporate
goals and objectives.
