Digital Readiness Assessment

Current economic conditions challenge all business operations and present the clear and present need to implement changes. Business executives across the globe realize that change is inevitable. Effective Managers™ offers expert assistance with the Digital Readiness Assessment Package which evaluates organizational readiness for implementing change whether it involves innovative efficiencies or any of the new digital technologies:

• EVALUATES DIGITAL CHANGE READINESS IN 10 CRITICAL OPERATIONAL AREAS that directly impact business results.
• PROVIDES GUIDANCE IN REMEDYING PROBLEMATIC SITUATIONS that can cause costly delays.
• ENSURES VALUABLE TIME, ENERGY & RESOURCES are devoted to achieving the targeted ROI.
• PREVENTS LAYERING DISRUPTION OVER DYSFUNCTION in key operational areas.

The assessment tool evaluates the effectiveness of ten key areas of operation critical to the success of important change projects. When all ten areas are operating effectively, the organization is in the best position to implement digital technologies with a minimum of disruption. The assessment tool returns immediate value to the client operation, and digital implementation vendor, by identifying areas ready for an implementation while flagging other areas that could benefit from attention or improvements prior to an implementation.

Targeting a small but representative sample of the workforce, the convenient online assessment tool provides valuable information without burdening the client operation with an invasive, time consuming survey. The result is valuable information concerning issues that can have a serious impact on the ability of the implementation project to produce a positive ROI.

Individual identities of the assessment team remain confidential.

OPTION 1:  Special Focus Report

This prepaid option provides valuable information at the lowest cost and quickest turnaround. Upon completion of the assessment, a Special Focus Report is provided to the client company. This report identifies whether the 10 key areas of operation are adequately prepared to support an implementation. It also flags concerns that should be addressed and suggests actions to limit potentially negative impacts.

OPTION 2:  Special Focus Report plus 2 hrs Expert Consulting

This prepaid option provides the same valuable information as Option 1 with the addition of 2 hours of expert consultation to address specific findings of the Special Focus Report at no additional charge. This allows for an interactive discussion of the needs of the organization and how to enhance preparedness to support an implementation.

OPTION 3:  Special Focus Report plus Extra Expert Consulting

This option provides the same valuable information as Option 1 with the specific findings of the Special Focus Report. However, it also allows for scheduling the specific number of hours of expert consulting needed at a significant discount. This allows the client to tap into a wealth of expertise that can genuinely assist in preparing the organization for a significant implementation project. This option provides the most assistance at affordable rates, is billed on a monthly basis, and provides value-added, actionable information to help ensure the achievement of the targeted ROI.

ROI estimates for digital implementation projects and other types or organizational change are usually based on the benefit potential provided under optimal conditions. But implementations of change, particularly digital technologies, are potentially disruptive to business operations as the workforce adjusts to the demands of the new tools and processes. The Change Readiness Assessment helps prevent layering disruption over dysfunction by identifying how key operational areas will impact the implementation allowing for more realistic expectations while keeping the focus on the production of positive results.
