Businesses may benefit from advisory support when they are experiencing rapid growth, entering a new market, restructuring operations, facing increasing complexity or preparing for a significant change. 

Advisory support can also help businesses reassess whether their existing operating model, controls and processes remain appropriate as the organisation evolves. 

Business advisory can cover a range of areas depending on the organisation's needs, including operating model design, financial controls, operational processes and risk management. The scope should be tailored to the specific challenges, objectives and stage of the business rather than applying a standard approach. 

Improving operational efficiency starts with understanding how key processes work in practice. Reviewing workflows, responsibilities, controls and unnecessary points of complexity can help identify opportunities to improve how work is performed.

The objective is to develop practical improvements that make operations more effective without creating unnecessary processes or bureaucracy. 

A target operating model describes how an organisation should be structured and operate to support its strategic objectives. It can consider areas such as organisational structure, roles and responsibilities, processes, governance and resources.

A well-designed operating model helps provide clarity around how different parts of the business should work together as the organisation grows or changes.

As business grows, informal processes that previously worked may become insufficient. Appropriate financial controls can help imporve the reliability of financial information, strengthen accountability, identify potential issues earlier and give management better visibility for decision-making. Controls should remain proportionate to the size, nature and complexity of the business. 

A structured review can examine how processes and controls are designed and how they operate in practice. This may involve reviewing documentation, workflows, responsibilities and existing controls, as well as discussing processes with relevant personnel. The findings can help management prioritise areas where improvements may have the greatest practical impact.
