Vector follows an ‘implementation heavy’ engagement process; the complete solution framework is presented before the commencement of engagement.&nbsp;

‘Vector’s 4 Step’ engagement process is designed to address the client’s risk in engaging a consultant for a long-term transformation project. It ensures that the client enters an engagement only after evaluating the solution and the consultant.

Unique Engagement Process

Vector follows an ‘implementation heavy’ engagement process; the complete solution framework is presented before the commencement of engagement.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Explore Vector Consulting Group's rigorous 4-step engagement process designed to mitigate client risk and ensure alignment before initiating transformational projects.

Unique 4-Step Engagement Process for Transformation Projects | Vector Consulting Group

We take up only quantum improvement projects, which provide a significant increase in profits (2-4 times current levels), or quantum jump in operational leverages (increase in plant output by more than 30%, near 100% on-time delivery in shorter lead times, 100% availability at less than half the current inventory levels).

Decision Gate

This step involves an exploratory assessment of various aspects of an organisation’s supply chain, operations and market conditions. Vector Consulting Group uses its proprietary template to access the organisation's hidden potential.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Potential Validation

This step involves an exploratory assessment of various aspects of an organisation’s supply chain, operations and market conditions. Vector Consulting Group uses its proprietary template to access the organisation's hidden potential.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

We propose an engagement only when we can provide benefits that are considered unattainable by management. At this stage, the top management should be convinced about the viability of a new vision for a quantum jump in the organisation’s  performance.

In this step, we conduct a two-hour session with only the top management team to establish a buy-in for the direction of the solution. Vector Consulting Group validates the logic of ‘Why to change?’, ‘What to change?’ and ‘What to change to?’. At the end of the session, the top management can decide to proceed to the next step.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Alignment Of The New Solution With The Top Management

We discuss further engagement only if the management team is fully convinced of the direction and the details, and is committed to the implementation, and Vector is also convinced of the management’s commitment to implement all the changes - big and small.

The Strategy and Tactic (SnT) workshop is a 2-3 day buy-in session with the entire top management and senior management team. At the end of the session, the top management gets an understanding of all changes to be implemented in various departments, the sequence of implementation, and an assessment of the benefits. This exercise empowers the management to make an informed decision on implementation. The session is preceded by three weeks of detailed study and analysis of the company’s&nbsp;operations, sales, marketing and management policies.&nbsp;

Solution And Implementation Consensus Session

Agreement on the contract, which is structured as a fixed fee per month and variable fee linked to actual achievement on parameters that impact the business as a whole (mainly delivery performance, working capital, sales and profits).

This involves executing the agreed strategy and tactics discussed in the 2-3 days’ session. Vector Consulting Group details the tactics further into Standard Operating Practices (SOPs) and ensures buy-in at various levels of management. It works closely with the client’s managers to deploy the SOPs till the targeted benefits are realised. The implementation methodology focuses on one thing at a time. Each step is implemented at the right time and in the right sequence to bring decisive change and results. This way of implementation not only ensures the necessary management bandwidth for change but also de-risks the entire initiative.&nbsp;
