EXPERTISE

Building the structures
businesses and organizations need — then helping them perform.

BUILD • IMPROVE • MEASURE

MFD can design and help implement the structures required to run an activity effectively — not only advise on structures that already exist.

Developing a business, entering a new market or implementing a new operating model requires more than a strategic recommendation. The commercial and economic logic behind the project also needs to be understood.

MFD Consulting can support clients in structuring growth opportunities, identifying commercial or industrial partners and assessing the economic performance of projects, products and operational solutions.

From business case to profitability

When MFD has helped develop or implement a solution, the assignment can continue into performance review. Depending on the client's needs and available data, MFD can help analyze the drivers that determine whether the solution is creating the expected business value.

Examples of structures MFD may help establish
  • Operational structures and workflows
  • Roles, responsibilities and governance routines
  • Purchasing, sourcing and supplier-management processes
  • Logistics and supply-chain organization
  • Commercial and business-development processes
  • Budget, cost, margin and profitability monitoring frameworks
  • KPI dashboards and management reporting
  • Project-management and partner-coordination structures
  • Structures adapted to companies, clubs, federations, associations and other organizations

Areas that may be reviewed

  • Revenue model and commercial assumptions
  • Target pricing and margin structure
  • Product and sourcing costs
  • Manufacturing and packaging economics
  • Logistics and cost-to-serve
  • Operating efficiency and resource use
  • Break-even logic and scenario comparison
  • Business-case review before major implementation decisions
  • Post-implementation performance against agreed objectives
  • Identification and prioritization of improvement opportunities

Important positioning

This work is management and business-performance consulting linked to the client's projects and operations. MFD does not present itself as an auditor, accounting firm, investment adviser or provider of guaranteed financial returns.
