Our Services

What we do

Building best-in-class service management

The focus of our work with our clients is simple – to help our clients to improve their services.

We offer several simple packages and approaches to get started – workshops, and short reviews, built into a clear brief and scope. This helps to set out a strategy and plan and some key activities that will make a difference.

Our job is not necessarily to ‘do’ transformation for our clients, but to advise, support, and facilitate change and positive actions and outcomes. (we can help with more support at key project times if needed).

We help our clients to be successful – by doing it themselves.

Work in an iterative, fluid way with BRC as an expert partner. With a portfolio of professional services and many ways to engage – from a couple of days' work to full project delivery.

Speed

Get issues and strategies defined and agreed upon quickly. We respond and deliver speedily and effectively, using ‘lean and agile’ methods where practical.

Scalability

Start small and simple – with a simple workshop or strategy session. If you need more help, then we can scale up and help you with more or less help in line with your needs.

What are the key elements of our consultancy approach..?

Discovery

The goal is to quickly build an understanding of the organisation, people and challenges, in order to be able to suggest improvements. This is delivered via interview sessions, individual and group meetings, plus data gathering via survey questionnaires and document sharing.

Analysis & Review

This involves a review of discovery materials, plus research and input from industry sources as required. Then work to analyse findings and come up with various risk and decision options and recommendations.

This is delivered with minimal need for client interaction although there are usually one or more feedback and iteration discussions involved.

Solutions

Work is concluded by providing feedback on issues and options, with recommendations and interactive decision support to identify the best actions to take. Including, the delivery of a management report, plus an online presentation workshop and other materials as required.

Ongoing support, people support, tools and documentation are available as needed to support project kick-off and to get started on relevant work.
