Organization Design & Governance

• Decision relating to identifying the core competencies of the firm and thus completing those activities internally
• When can an activity be outsourced and the associated risks with it?
• Decentralization of any activity/ process for e.g. having centralized warehouse system or having distributed network and the resulting trade off which needs to be balanced between time, money and quality
• Are all the functions needed to perform an activity/ process in place?
• What are the various non value adding functions that can be done way with resulting in a lean organization hence better managed?
• Linking of roles/ ownership associated with each function thereby assigning the responsibility and doing away with all the non value adding roles
• Identification of the bottlenecks in proper flow of information, goods etc. from one function to another and their respective solutions
• Identification of critical roles and responsibility required to maintain an efficient supply chain and equipping them with appropriate wherewithal to discharge their duties effectively
• Strictly defining  the reporting structure across the entire supply chain
• Restructuring the supply chain with a view to building support throughout the firm, eliminating unnecessary delays, reducing costs, simplifying complexities
• Developing the capability in order to acquire the critical roles internally over a period of time
