Consulting
Consulting engagements are project based and delivered on site. We are usually brought in where something specific is not working: a process that keeps failing audit, a structure that no longer fits the organisation, or a project nobody has capacity to run. The engagement ends with the problem addressed and your team able to keep it that way.
Organisational Review and Design
Structures tend to accumulate rather than get designed. We review how the organisation is arranged against what it now has to deliver, and propose a structure with the reporting lines, roles and accountabilities written down.
- Organisational structure review
- Role profiling and job descriptions
- Span of control and reporting line analysis
- Change implementation planning
Supply Chain Management
Supply chain is where public sector audit findings concentrate and where private sector value quietly leaks. We review the process end to end against the applicable regulations and against what is actually being done, which are rarely the same thing.
- SCM policy and process review
- Compliance with the MFMA and Treasury regulations
- Deviation and expansion analysis
- Bid committee support and training
Policy and Procedure Development
Policies fail when they are written to satisfy an auditor rather than to be followed. We draft documents describing what people should actually do, in language they will read, mapped to the controls the policy is meant to enforce.
- Policy drafting and rationalisation
- Standard operating procedures
- Delegation and approval frameworks
- Implementation and staff training
Project Management Support
Projects fail on governance more often than on technical grounds. We provide the project management office function, the reporting discipline, and an independent view of whether a project is where its status report claims it is.
- Project management office setup
- Independent project assurance reviews
- Status and milestone reporting
- Risk and issue management
Change Management
A new system or structure delivers only if people use it as intended. We plan the communication, training and support around the change, then measure adoption afterwards rather than assuming it happened.
- Stakeholder analysis and communication planning
- Training design and delivery
- Adoption measurement
- Post implementation review
