Assess
We help our clients objectively assess their current state, establish their capacity for change, and prioritize improvement opportunities. Through the application of our technical, operational, and transactional experiences, along with rigorous benchmarking and in-depth analysis, Pace Harmon provides structured, fact-based assessments that help our clients to determine the appropriate course of action.
We bring insight, not preconceptions, to each engagement and we understand that a new procurement or a determination to outsource is not, in many cases, the optimal solution. Our practitioners have experience in effecting change via process and technology optimization as well as via sourcing and vendor management, enabling our evaluation to address a wide range of potential options. Our seasoned view on technical, operational, and commercial dimensions provides a depth of pragmatism to our analysis that enables the recommendations to be readily implemented and the projected benefits to be actually attained.
Examples of services during the Assess stage include:
- Development of technology strategy and definition of implementation and sourcing roadmaps
- Current state assessments (e.g., architectural, operational / process, TCO modeling)
- Market and technology research and analysis
- Organization and vendor performance benchmarking
- Sourcing / procurement process review (e.g., "Source to Settle", "Record to Report")
- Identification and prioritization of sourcing opportunities
- Business case development
- "Build vs. buy" decision support
- Enterprise change readiness assessments
