Overhead Impact - Quick Scan

Overhead Impact Quick Scan

Pinpoint where overhead might be reduced

 
If you lead an organization of 300+ people, you know the challenge: complex projects, shifting staffing, a multitude of required deliverables, and layers of coordination often create more overhead than necessary. While some overhead is unavoidable, a significant share can be reduced. And with skill shortages, stiffer competition requiring faster time-to-market, and price competition requiring reduction in development costs, organizations need to become leaner.

The Overhead Impact Quick Scan gives you a practical, evidence-based view of how much efficiency your organization could gain from shifting towards bottom-up planning and stable teams. Delivered in only two weeks, it’s a compact yet powerful starting point for change.

 

How it works:

  • Survey of ~30 employees across functions to capture perspectives à please note, at least 30 people need to fill in the survey, the target group should be bigger.
  • 5 in-depth interviews for qualitative insight and stories, these will be scheduled upfront with the most relevant people.
  • Analysis of your product development process and project staffing to identify structural bottlenecks à based on the documentation you send us on the first day of the scan
  • You receive the Overhead Impact Quick Scan after two weeks elaborating on overhead in roles and in meetings.

 

What you get:

  • A directional assessment of how much overhead in your product development process can be reduced
  • Insights into how stable teams and bottom-up planning could improve speed, ownership, and efficiency
  • A clear foundation for deciding if and where to take the next step

  

Why it matters:

  • Free up scarce talent by reducing avoidable overhead roles and meetings
  • Prepare for tomorrow’s shrinking workforce by maximizing efficiency today
  • Create stable, empowered product development teams that deliver with fewer layers of coordination
