Operating Model Design

Structuring organisations to deliver on their priorities

An operating model defines how an organisation creates and delivers value. It covers structure, governance, processes, and capabilities. When strategy changes, the operating model usually needs to change with it.

We help organisations redesign their operating models to support new strategic priorities. This might mean centralising functions for efficiency, decentralising for speed, or building new capabilities from scratch.

Operating model work is detailed and practical. We focus on the choices that matter: spans and layers, decision rights, shared services design, and the governance mechanisms that hold it together. The goal is an organisation that can execute its strategy.

Our approach

1

Current State Assessment

We map the existing operating model, identifying strengths, inefficiencies, and misalignments with strategy.

2

Design Principles

We work with leadership to establish the principles that will guide operating model choices.

3

Target Model Design

We design the target operating model, covering structure, governance, processes, and capabilities.

4

Transition Planning

We plan the transition from current to target state, managing risk and maintaining business continuity.

Typical outcomes

  • Operating model aligned to strategy
  • Clear governance and decision rights
  • Efficient organisational structure
  • Transition plan with change management approach
