Strategy and Governance
Strategy is the overall path to achieving an organization’s vision and mission. Individual initiatives, managed as projects, are the mechanisms used to move the organization forward on that strategic path. The failure of a company to establish an effective system of corporate governance produces a major strategic and operational risk to the company, as well as to its investors and shareholders. Corporate governance deficiencies may even jeopardize the continued existence of a company. In consequent, it is necessary to constantly monitor a company’s practices, the composition of its board of directors, the company’s competitive and market conditions, and/or mergers and acquisitions.

Our Services include:

  • Assessment of management decisions in alignment with the entity’s mission, vision, and values
  • Evaluation of the entity’s strategic objectives and related performance measures
  • SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis
  • Design of an effective risk management program
  • Merger integration and implementation of divestitures

Data and Analytics

Empowering your organization – becoming a “data-driven” company

Ready access and insights into an organization’s data improves and optimizes decisions and performance, ultimately leading to an organization’s success and allowing them to obtain a competitive advantage. This “data driven” approach unites data, technology, and analytics to optimize business decision making. The right choice and use of emerging technologies can be a key differentiator for strategic organizations in transforming data into information.

Our Services include:

  • Data transformation roadmaps
  • Alignment of the data analytics and reporting initiatives to the business strategy, governance structure and practices
  • Assist in developing policies and procedures on data privacy and security

As organizations invest and grow their digital footprint, the respective threat landscape also expands, potentially exposing sensitive and valuable business information to greater risk. Protecting key business digital assets, applications, and data from cyber criminals seeking to exploit emerging security vulnerabilities must be a key focus area, ultimately contributing to an organization’s success. Adopting a holistic zero-trust approach to cyber security protecting critical systems and sensitive information from digital attacks, able to provide insights into cyber threats to mitigate risks and maintain compliance to regulatory regulations and certifications, is a key differentiator for strategic organizations. An effective internal control environment is the first line of defense for mitigating cyber threats.
