Business improvement strategies

Sustainability is the underlying platform for the business improvement strategies we develop. Sustainability provides a powerful framework for improved decision making and for creating business success. The key to business sustainability is the ability to simultaneously maximise both internal and external stakeholder value by keeping customers, employees and shareholders happy.

Value Network will work with organisations to develop and implement their business improvement strategies.

Procurement and supply chain management

The area of supplier management and logistics , also known as outsourcing and increasingly referred to as procurement is an important component of business today. This means performance of the supply chain is an increasingly important component of business viability. Today, many organisations spend as much as 25% of total outlays on procurement.

Value Network has extensive experience in developing and implementing procurement, tendering and supply chain reform strategies.

Regardless of the size of your business, a strategy customised to your business needs will result in significant benefit if considered in the context of the risk which underperformance by the supply chain might mean to your business.

Asset management strategies

For many organisations asset management is a core component of their resource allocation. At the same time the value inherent in this resource is often not fully appreciated in terms of the asset's contribution to and impact on the business or service objectives of the organisation.

Value Network can assist organisations in both developing asset strategies and more importantly linking these strategies to the wider business strategies of the organisation.

Organisational development

Value Network brings a risk management approach to the strategic planning and development processes of an organisation. This recognises that the need for change is to a large degree driven by risk, the perceptions of it, and the wish to often take that risk to gain reward. What is required then is a clear understanding of purpose and the goals to guide an organisation, and the sharing of those goals amongst those who have to make the change work.

Policy development

Value Network has extensive experience and success in policy development and application at both organisational and industry level. Our approach is grounded in making it work for the business i.e. to be sustainable it must value add to the business.

Training

So, you’ve got your strategy, or a change initiative, now the hard work starts – take up and implementation. So, what problems are you likely to encounter?

Lots! It is estimated that 60% of businesses will encounter two problems: capabilities of key personnel are not sufficient and instruction given to staff is not adequate.

The solution is often simple and involves training as a means to communicate new initiatives and workplace requirements, obtain employee commitment and involvement, and equip staff with the knowledge, expertise and confidence to implement the strategy and changes required.
Value Network has the capability to assist organisations in both developing training programs and delivering customised in-house training to facilitate the smooth implementation of a business strategy or change initiative.

Keynote speakers

The underlying challenge for most organisations is do you want a good organisation or do you want to be a great organisation.

Value Network and its partners can provide speakers who will challenge existing paradigms. In doing so, they will appeal to all levels of a business - your executives, employees or partners.
