Value Creation Plan reset for services company
- Situation
- PE-backed global service company struggled to execute its value creation plan due to too many projects, limited capabilities and missing metrics
- Management required support to review, prioritize and reshape the plan into something the organization could actually execute
- Actions
- Defined a joint 5-year financial ambition with senior management and translated it into value creation levers and country contributions
- Assessed the project portfolio and value creation levers for strategic fit, financial impact and feasibility
- Identified gaps, overlaps and ambiguity, clarified concepts and sequenced initiatives into digestible waves
- Defined key performance metrics per lever and developed driver-based models for bottom-up country planning
- Supported countries in developing bottom-up plans and ran review sessions to challenge outcomes against the overall ambition
- Results
- Agreed 5-year financial ambition for the group and key countries targeting >50% more EBITDA in 4 years
- Focused value creation plan on less critical levers with clear country contributions and phasing
- Value creation levers underpinned by operational metrics and agreed local implementation plans
- Investments and resources aligned with the value creation plan and tracking embedded into performance management with a monthly review cadence
