Ensuring the strategic plan is operationally fit across finance, procurement, production & distribution
Many strategic plans don't survive first contact with reality because they were developed with a top-down process with embedded assumptions that next year will look similar to last year. Value creation implies fundamental transformation of the operating model which requires symbiotic development including all functions with unified metrics across the business.
