An independent management consultancy based in the UK and operating throughout Europe, JGA is based around a core team of enthusiastic, experienced consultants and business managers. We have worked together for many years and are able to operate as a high performance team, expert in applying JGA’s approaches & techniques and experienced in forging successful joint teams with our clients.
Our clients are mainly, but not exclusively, major financial services organisations, leading companies in European Financial Services, UK FTSE 100 and major Swiss and Belgian multi-nationals. They come to us at times of major strategic change and value the experience we bring and the contribution we make using our portfolio of approaches and techniques. We continually develop and add to this to bring innovative yet tested, practical approaches to transition management.
The JGA approach brings a benefits driven management perspective, focusing on the targeted business outcomes of a planned transition and providing the means by which all involved can align to actually achieve them. We find that this is important wherever the change originates but that it is crucial for IT driven change - to align IT and business strategies and to ensure that IT and the business work together as an intertwined “whole” - efficiently and cost effectively.
JGA helps its customers focus on their customers through targeted operational design. The customer relationship management approach can be refocused, redefined and rejuvenated by end-to-end redesign.
Drivers for I.T. ChangeDrivers for IT change may be external or internal. Both are rooted in business imperatives and require an organisation to respond with a clear coordinated strategy for change. JGA identifies and assesses key drivers for IT change. This allows IT and business strategies and performance indicators to be correctly aligned. |
StrategyStrategic opportunities and pressures can only be met successfully and strategic goals achieved when there is real and continual alignment across all areas and processes of an organisation, starting with the strategy process itself. |
T.O.M.Developing a common understanding of an organisation's Target Operating Model is imperative in order to deliver the right people, processes and infrastructure to achieve strategic goals. |
GovernanceGreater scrutiny of governance and control and transparency of policy setting and decision making have been promoted by the introduction of new auditing requirements; namely Basel II, SOX and MiFID. |
