Anpro' s Value Creation Process:

Effective implementation requires management commitment to support the project and its objectives, sufficient and competent resources, effective communications, teamwork and robust project management skills & methods. Early Wins to sustain momentum and motivation are also crucial.

Anpro's implementation projects are designed in collaboration with our clients with these factors in mind and we have the experience to implement change management projects in any area of your business.

Twin-track Approach

With the results of the phase 1 analysis in hand, clients have agreed on what needs to change and on success criteria for the project. Anpro's twin-track approach avoids the "paralysis of analysis" and gets the project off to a flying start with an Early Wins programme to start delivering real improvements from project day 1. In tandem, development work on more challenging problems, which require more time and effort to solve, gets underway in a positive climate.

"7-Step" Proven Methodology

Anpro designs and implements projects to customer specifications, working from a solid base of implementation know-how. This methodology enables work to progress to planned timetables and costs, creating real value within viable timeframes. Step by step, clients know exactly where they are in the project implementation process. Some slippages occur in most projects and our project management mechanisms ensure early warning and remedial action to deal with these potential hiccups.

Anchoring changes in a new "way of working" is the acid-test of successful implementation. Our "co-authorship" approach to implementing new processes, systems, procedures or working practices takes a lot longer than simply giving clients lists of recommendations - but it ensures acceptance, understanding and lasting value with client personnel involved in making the "new way of working" actually work. Clients don't have to take our word for it - our implementation approach means that client management and personnel present their own departmental "performance improvement plans - actions and objectives" for approval to their own colleagues and bosses. This "public" commitment is almost impossible to fake - our clients get the opportunity to test this commitment to their own satisfaction.

In all our implementation projects we establish base (historical) performance criteria, as well as targets for performance improvement in the projects themselves. Our commitment to achieving these targets is absolute - something reflected in the fee-related guarantees we provide related to this value creation. Typically we create a net return on project investment of 150-200% and 400-500% in year 1 and 2 respectively.

We offer clients support after the project, auditing compliance and results to ensure that the mechanisms we have installed for operational effectiveness and continuous improvement are working properly. The audit will also identify "changes over time" and diagnose emerging new requirements.

All projects vary, but on average typical project implementation requires

approximately 9 months

anything from 1 - 4 consultants, 0 - 4 client task force members

early wins programme 6 - 8 weeks

cycle time per department/business process (develop/upgrade, install, consolidate) = 3 months

all organisational levels.
