Strategic Plan

Over the past decade, the effectiveness of 5-10 year strategic plans has been called into question due to the acceleration of ecosystems, rendering plans rapidly obsolete, and often erroneous forecasts of technological developments. The rotation of prescribers, a lack of cross-functional coordination, and the absence of concrete, achievable measures in strategic orientations, have contributed to reducing these plans to mere problem statements rather than effective action plans. These plans, mostly focused on financial and corporate aspects, often fail to redefine a crucial aspect: the company's vision, thus necessitating a revision of strategic planning methods to focus more on flexibility and a clear vision.

When structuring strategic plans for our customers, we believe it is important to have 5 distinct actions:

  • Support" them in their strategic orientations through relevant and detailed analyses
  • Challenge them in the form of options and in line with a realistic level of risk and investment
  • Shake them up" in the structuring of a Vision backed by an objective: "I want to multiply my positions by 2 in 5 years and become the key player...".
  • Warn them of risks and constraints based on speed of execution
  • Helping them to anchor themselves in the real world and the medium term by reconciling implementation capacity with 2-year impact

Our approach

3 phases follow one another in the structuring of a strategic plan:

1

Design phase


We define the Vision and the Objective

2

Build phase


We present options, validate and structure them in the form of project roadmaps.

3

Run phase


We accompany, adjust and amend what we had imagined and which, when confronted with reality, requires a change in management or objectives.

Finally, it is important not to neglect where you can pause for a moment to reflectand then get back to work!

The cornerstone of these plans depends on a single point: support at the highest level of the organization to get the operational staff on board and maintain the initial level of ambition.

Companies have to evolve continuously to increase their competitiveness, reduce production lead times, introduce new products with a high level of quality... What's more, transformation has become a way of life for most companies. The need to transform is reflected in major efforts. Yet one in three plans fails to achieve its objectives.
