“This is how we make transformation happen.”

Our approach

Strategy and Process

To drive sustainable growth, business leaders need a clear strategic vision and the right processes in place to bring it to life. Our Corporate Experience building blocks set the strategy, operating model, and redesigned business models needed to make this happen.

From post-merger integration to procurement and finance transformation, we help to define and build change. We enable organizations to transform from siloed corporate functions to achieve a holistic corporate experience.

What we do

Enterprise model & Strategy

In a rapidly changing world, how do you successfully manage complexity and achieve the promised value of your strategic operating and growth initiatives?

Business change is constant. Globalization, competitive pressure, dissolving market boundaries, sustainability goals, innovation, and digitalization are driving forces for organizations to change their businesses, merge, divest non-core assets, or invest in promising ones.

We help you to design the right strategy for sustainable transformation and create a competitive advantage. We define target operating models and build the business case and transformation roadmap, working with you to unify and mobilize stakeholders for change.

Leveraging informed data insights, our corporate experience services help reduce risks and manage challenges, from new operating model design and investment strategy, to post-merger integration or divestment. We identify a plan for long-term growth and translate the strategy and steps into value-driven outcomes.

Procurement Transformation

As a key contributor to the strategic and tactical success of an organization, procurement delivers the flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and resources needed to operate effectively.

Procurement reaches across your end-to-end business ecosystem, from employees making purchasing decisions, to your customers and suppliers. It must interact with operations, business, IT, and finance, which can be difficult if systems and processes aren’t integrated.

We work with clients to increase procurement efficiency and purchasing compliance across their entire organization. Using advanced data and new digital levers, we provide enhanced transparency for informed decisions on supplier consolidation, strategic sourcing, back-office cost-saving opportunities, and process optimization.

From concept to procurement transformation (procurement strategy), from platform strategy to conceptual design (identify technology solutions), we help you implement controls and compliance governance, change management, organization culture, and sustainable sourcing strategies.

Finance Transformation

In becoming more efficient, more data-led, and more digital, today’s corporate finance function can be a true partner to the wider business, providing insight and real-time analytics.

CFOs adopting digital operating models often struggle with identifying the right tools to free up their teams for more value-added activities. In transforming with digital, they seek to drive down costs, improve service efficiency, and tap into digital data for deep business insight.

Through our corporate transformation services, we empower help finance leaders transform processes and evolve their people. We steer them towards new enterprise performance management tools, adopting Lean approaches to standardizing processes and redefining operating models with our Global Business Services. Tailored dashboards put real-time information in one place to support strategic decisions. And, we help to identify and select new (cloud-based) ERP platforms — always with the end user experience in mind.

SAP S/4 Hana Transformation

Implementing SAP S/4HANA is not simply an IT transformation. Its success inevitably rests on your people and should be defined by user and business outcomes.

While moving to cloud-based SAP S/4HANA represents a new digital core, it should be viewed from the perspective of your broader business transformation. It will change the processes across all areas, from finance and procurement, to supply chain, manufacturing, and HR. Senior stakeholders must break down silos and engage in your S/4HANA transformation from the outset, or risk failing to build a credible business case for change.

We tailor every client engagement individually, taking an end-to-end perspective, from the business transformation you want to achieve to the outcome each S/4HANA component will deliver. We conduct focus interviews with key sponsors, assess maturity, and create a value-driven roadmap and business case.

Working with colleagues across the wider Capgemini Group, we steer your S/4HANA transformation from design through to deployment for true value realization.

People

People make transformation work. That’s why we focus on the human-side of business change. We work with businesses and HR leaders to co-create people strategy and organization purpose.

HR equips the business with the information and insights it needs to make vital strategic people decisions — ideally in real time. A talent-centric and data-powered HR function is essential to underpin the transition to the new world of work in which people “management” ceases to be merely a support function, and becomes a core business contributor.

Together, we design digital and sustainable organizations for effective workforce organization — From reinventing HR and employee experiences to moving towards a new operating model underpinning strategy and purpose, we help our clients become sustainable, future-ready digital organizations. We leverage the power of data to accelerate change across people, leadership, and culture.

What we do

Organization purpose & Strategy

To survive and thrive, companies must design new organization strategies that align with a purpose in which employees and customers alike believe.

Organizations need a purpose to stay relevant in today’s world. It is the foundation upon which a new model for innovating, designing, and transforming modern business is built. Employees and customers are increasingly sustainability conscious. They want to work for or buy from companies with a defined purpose that embraces planet and people, not just profit.

Through our workforce transformation services, we help to make this happen with a new organization vision, structure, governance, capabilities, and culture. But we don’t stop there. We work with you to identify and implement what you need to achieve your purpose — embedding social impact, diversity, and sustainability into an organization-wide ambition.

Our program managers help you to accelerate change by becoming an agile organization, enabling you to seize the digital opportunities you need to be purpose-led day in, day out.

Workforce Transformation

Skills are the new business currency. Achieving consistent growth depends on equipping your people with appropriate skills augmented with modern technologies to enable new ways of working.

How do you successfully navigate your talent through the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation? It’s important to design a winning formula around the right mix of people and AI, where digital technology improves productivity, reduces employee costs, minimizes human error, and makes the workplace a better place to be.

We at Empire Consulting help organizations make this transition in a way that creates trust and engagement. We assess the impact of automation on the workforce and identify the jobs and skills needed for digital leadership. We put in place new talent infrastructures governing recruitment, rightsizing, and training to support continuous development or a transition into second careers. Additionally, our organizational transformation services help your people to adapt to new ways of working.

Employee Experience and HR

HR must use data-rich insights to match people competencies with changing corporate needs while enabling employees to adapt to new, digital ways of working.

HR must become a true business partner as organizations ramp up their adaptability to internal and external challenges. Digitalization opens new and exciting possibilities, but change can be difficult. That’s where enterprise workforce management helps. It plays an important role in how employees adapt to technological and cultural changes.

In turn, HR must ask itself some searching questions about how to match its often outdated people management process to the demands of a transitioning workforce organization. What does it take to formulate an HR strategy aligned with corporate goals? What workforce solutions does a new multi-generation demographic require, with diverging working and development demands? Can HR benefit from using cloud solutions and analyzing data for more effective service delivery?

We help to answer all these questions — and more — from strategy to implementation as we transition HR to being the engine of your organization.

Program Management & Change Acceleration

It’s not what you do, but how you do it. Transformation is never easy, but intelligent data-driven program management and human-centered change management design make all the difference.

To bring to life your workforce and organizational transformation, you must first identify the right portfolio of initiatives, setting the foundation for change. That’s the role of program management — and it puts people and data at the center of your transformation.

Research shows engaged employees are far more likely to go beyond what is expected of them or to stay late when something needs to be done. Little wonder organizations with high employee engagement show a marked increase in operating income and high growth in earnings per share.

With intelligent data-driven program management, you can define the right structures, identify the risks, and engage your people in the process of change. What leadership skills must you develop to accelerate change? How do you create engagement in times of change exhaustion? Can you leverage the AI tools and process evolutions needed to improve and maximize the impact of your transformation?

We help to answer these questions by applying design thinking and agile methodology to leadership, learning, and how we create business impact by accelerating change.

Technology

The right technology choices are one of management’s top priorities for growth. Business technology empowers the modern enterprise, its people, organization, and processes. Now, more than ever, this technology must enable resilience and agility, with investment in scalable, cloud-native solutions that have sustainability at their core. Technology evolves at a phenomenal pace. Its impact on business operations can be disruptive.
