| Case Studies from this Sector: |
| Process Redesign in Corporate Recovery |
| Advised a “big four” accountancy firm on the redesign of processes in the Corporate Recovery function. The new process splits “front” and “back” office functions, centralising all “back office” processes previously carried out in national, regional and local offices. The Shared Service Centre supports significant improvements in the Corporate Recovery function, at reduced costs, utilising integrated workflow and accountancy software to ensure seamless integration of the national practice. |
| Global Vendor Management for an Accounting Firm |
| Worked with one of the “final four” major accounting firms to create a global service management function covering all IT supplies. The service management provided a hierarchy of performance measures that enabled the Global Vendor Management function to move beyond the measures of failure (remedies) to measuring genuine service improvements. |
| Performance and Process Change for a Law Firm |
| Worked with a large regional law firm to support a significant expansion of services on a UK-wide basis. This required the redesign of core processes, the implementation of shared service centres to support the increased transaction workload, and the implementation of e-commerce applications to support customer acquisition. These changes were supported by improved IT applications and infrastructure. The project also identified a number of quick wins in local offices to enhance capacity and improve customer service levels. |
| IT Advice for an Accounting Firm |
| Advised a “big four” accountancy firm on the implementation of knowledge management systems to support the collection, processing and distribution across all UK locations of tax rulings, external legal advice and guidance from government departments received at any of its UK locations. |
| Training in Change and Benefit Realisation for a Professional Firm |
| Worked with a major, global consultancy to introduce change and project management techniques to “Make Change Stick”. Trained the internal consultancy teams and then worked on assignments with the teams, applying the tools and techniques and mentoring the client teams. |
