What is business process improvement?
Business Process Improvement involves analysing current processes, identifying areas for improvement and implementing change to achieve better performance.
How can Prevail help with business process improvement?
Our vast experience working with small and mid-size businesses in the construction industry helps us to pinpoint the areas and processes that are holding you back while raising your understanding of common pitfalls in the sector.
What are the common pitfalls for construction industry businesses?
When you start out as a business, you often develop ways of doing things that are expedient at the time but not necessarily the best way to do things as you grow.
Very quickly, these decisions become embedded in your business practices – they become “the way we do things round here” even if they are no longer the best, most efficient or cost-effective way of getting the job done.
Making the time to step back and analyse the processes which have become your norm is hard – you may not even recognise the inefficiencies even if you could free up the time to review them. This is where expert third-party guidance can assist. A fresh pair of eyes and an experienced hand to help you drive process improvements that will take cost out of your business operations and enable improved performance and growth.
Where does Prevail add value?
Typically, we will review your current processes to identify where they are creating bottlenecks, driving up costs and/or resulting in frequent errors. We’ll then work with you to map the process to pinpoint exactly where you need to make improvements.
By gathering data, we can analyse the process to identify root causes of inefficiencies. Together we will define clear, measurable goals for process improvement and develop an action plan.
Importantly, we will also support you to monitor and measure the results, helping you to track the performance of the improved process and measure it against the goals we set.
