Business Planning Services

How do you intend to get to where you want to go if you don’t have a plan to reach your goals?

Every business, whether large or small needs a plan...without planning, a business will lack direction and focus, resulting in difficulties identifying, establishing and meeting key performance targets.

We offer several planning services aimed at assisting your business to understand and engage in planning activities.
We will help you to develop a specific plan for your business, based on your requirements.

Strategic plans

These are an essential part of the strategic process in any business.  They set a path for the longer term, 3-5 years. We will help you develop a strategic plan that addresses your business goals and objectives and defines a structured approach to accomplish what your business first set out to achieve.

Business cases

If your business is about to engage in a new activity or risk area, we can help develop a concept plan and business case ascertaining its viability before moving forward and potentially wasting valuable time and money. We also can help you successfully commercialise your IP from idea to market.

Business start up plans

When first starting out in business, one of the most vital success factors is having a clearly identifyable plan that outlines what you are aiming to achieve, and how and when you plan to achieve it.

Information memorandums

If your business is looking at gaining finance through a grant, bank, financial institution or private equity investors, we offer planning services specifically suited for a particular business proposition.

Operational plans

The operational plan is derived from the strategic plan, and is a detailed action plan to achieve the goals and objectives of the strategic plan. It looks at short term business strategies and incorporates annual budgeting with quarterly reviews. This can also include marketing plans, which can be incorporated in the operational plan or as a seperate plan altogether.

One Page Plans

This is a daily use management tool that is based on the Balanced Scorecard approach. It breaks the business down into 4 key areas, Financial, Processes, Customers and Growth. It then defines Objectives, Targets, Initiatives and Measures for those areas and creates an action plan on one page. These are exceptionally powerful for boards or management. They provide clarity at a glance as to whether a business is moving in the right direction – or not.
