Elevate ConsultancyOur analysis involves study of internal and sector specific documents and discussions with key internaland external stakeholders.IT StrategyA company's IT Strategy should enable its business strategy and not be a drag on it. We first identify thestrategic and operational needs of our clients and then determine the IT capabilities, aligned to theirlong-term goals.We help our clients in one of more of the following aspects - Formulate Overall IT Strategy aligned with long term business strategy - Tool/Vendor Evaluation - Hel decide on the operational model – in-house vs outsourced, License vs SaaS - Project/Program Management - Risk Management - Change ManagementIT Solution/Vendor EvaluationMany organizations lack in-house skills and find it difficult to decide on the choice of Technology and/orvendors. Often their decisions are based on management preferences/selling ability of the vendor. Thisresults in selecting tools which the organization is not prepared for.Our Platform/Vendor agnostic approach towards evaluation and selection helps you in selecting theappropriate IT solutions and vendors, most suitable for your unique needs. Our comprehensiveevaluation framework helps in objective evaluation.We further work with the management teams and help negotiate the commercials too.Vinod Sadavarte Page 3

Elevate ConsultancyProcess ReengineeringWe undertake business process reengineering to enable the organizations optimize processes. Theobjective is to improve overall efficiency, productivity, and quality.Our Process reengineering is an involved task and covers the following elements - The existing Process is reviewed end to end i.e. Procure to Pay. This helps identify redundancies, weaknesses and their root causes across functions and sub-processes like indenting, purchase, payable, etc. - The process is redesigned to align the same with company overall objectives and using the industry best practices - Key Process KPIs are identified and linked to functions and individuals for tracking and monitoring effectiveness of the process - Leverage appropriate technology to automate the process - A detailed Process Manual/SOP is created and is available with all stakeholdersEnterprise Performance managementMost organizations today are suffering from data flooding and information starvation. The main reasonfor this situation is lack of appropriate systems and processes. Most decisions are today taken based onhunch and/or stale data.Enterprise Performance management is often viewed as ineffective by employees and managers alike.Despite the time, efforts and resources devoted to it, performance management rarely achieves itsintended purpose—improving performance.Managing enterprise performance is a key part of effective leadership. Research has shown thatmanagers who engage in effective performance management produce extraordinary business results.But many organizations fail to realize these benefits as performance management serves reactivepurpose. On one hand tons of data is presented in board rooms without meaningful insights, on theother the data is used to help managers make pay decisions. They fail to leverage EPM for betterbusiness decision making to achieve its strategic vision and objectives.In order to ensure that Organisations reach their goals, we help them take few systematic steps.• Link Strategic Goals to initiatives establishing clear linkages to business units, resources (financial and human), technology.• Break down Goals (big or small, corporate, operational, financial or people related) into Concrete, Balanced, Interrelated and most importantly Measurable and Verifiable targets/ KRAs/parameters• Cascade these goals down to the level of the individual employees, ensuring transparency• Set processes and systems to collect and measure the data points• Monitor continuously all major KRAs to take purposeful control measures aimed at optimizing business performance.• Set mechanism to identify deviations from goals early and reliably and set corrective actionsVinod Sadavarte Page 4
