StratATecture

Where are you now? If your business has trouble answering that question, StratATecture can help.

Together, we use the tools of Enterprise Discovery to check your business’s actual current state when, for example:

• You’re unsure of your customer’s needs or wants.
• You’re unsure of your competitors’ strengths or weaknesses.
• You’re slow to capitalize on strategic opportunities.
• You’re worried about mitigating operational risks.

Clear understanding of your business’s actual current state requires not only keen awareness of market forces and stakeholder demands but also a candid assessment of operating capabilities and strategic challenges.

We gather data and offer insight to help you analyze: 

• Your business’s current position in the marketplace and with stakeholders.
• The degree to which your business’s strategy fits operations and vice versa.
• Your business’s capabilities, both what you are doing and what you could do.

We help you navigate the intersection where customers, competitors, opportunities, and risks meet so you can choose the right path forward.

Using objective data and actionable insight, we help you: 

• Define your business’s competitive advantage, be it comparative in your market or differential for your stakeholders.
• Articulate your business’s path to success—how you can improve capabilities to increase your competitive advantage.
• Align your leadership on that path to success because, in most cases, where leadership goes the business will follow.

What is next?

If your business has trouble answering that question, StratATecture can help.

Together, we use the tools of Vision and Strategy Development to help you clarify your business’s ideal future state when, for example: 

• Your leaders aren’t united around your value proposition.
• Your employees are unaware of your guiding vision.
• Your strategy gets lost in translation from ideation to implementation.
• Your goals don’t support your strategy.
• Your goals aren’t attainable with your current capabilities.

Your business’s next depends on crystal-clear strategic intent.

This combination of guiding vision, defined capabilities and principled leadership provides a strong but flexible direction for sustained success.

We gather data and offer insight to help you evaluate:

• Your business’s competitive landscape, both externally and internally.
• How events, trends and developments have shaped your business.
• How projected or hypothetical scenarios might shape your business.

We help you focus your business’s vision and strategy so you can respond rapidly to change in the present and make sound decisions for the future.

Using objective data and actionable insight, we help you: 

• Envision your business’s possibilities with outside-the-box, blue-sky, game-changer thinking.
• Develop a strategic roadmap—your business’s guide for what (and what not) to do as you turn possibility into reality.
• Define principles to inspire your leadership’s attitudes and actions, which set the precedent for your entire business.

How do you get from here to there?

If your business has trouble answering that question, StratATecture can help.

Together, we use the tools of Operating Model Design to help you create a current-to-future plan for your business when, for example: 

• Your teams produce fragmented work.
• Your workflows are inefficient or ineffective.
• Your employees are uninspired or unempowered.
• Your objectives and metrics don’t match or don’t matter.
• You can’t find the right data to make decisions.
• You don’t have the right technology to drive value.

Your business’s agility and sustainability depend on a well-balanced operating system.

All the elements of that system work together to drive your business outcomes.

We help you: 

• Evaluate your current operating model, including its structures, processes, people, performance metrics, data, technology and culture.
• Design your future operating model blueprint—a plan to engage the right people in the right work—and its corresponding performance scorecard—a tool to measure the right outcomes at the right times.
• Develop your transformation roadmap, which can be a single, sweeping transformation (traditional) or a series of transformations made with a continuous-learning approach (agile).

We help you align your business’s strategic intent, organizational culture, and operational model to simultaneously strengthen your business’s current agility and future sustainability.

Our objective data and actionable insight will help you create:

• An operating model that reflects your business’s strategic intent.
• A balanced scorecard to reinforce your business’s strategic intent.
• Engagement across your business supporting your strategic intent. 

With the help of StratATecture, your business will be better designed to drive for better outcomes with comprehensively coordinated strategy, culture and operations.
