Process Design & Optimization

Developing holistic solutions that drive measurable results

Process variation leads to inefficient operations, impedes growth potential, and impacts financial outcomes. In a world where the pace of change and competition is accelerating by orders of magnitude every year, operating efficiently, optimizing existing capabilities, standardizing, improving, and redesigning business processes and technologies are critical components for building a foundation for sustained success.

Ankura works collaboratively with an organization’s leadership to identify, analyze, prioritize, and improve existing business processes and practices to optimize performance, meet best practice standards, and improve quality and the user experience for customers and end-users.

Business & Requirements Analysis

Organizations that cannot respond quickly to changes in their environment run a significant risk of losing market share and eventually becoming obsolete. Our business analysts have the unique ability to translate business needs into clear technology requirements that enable teams to deliver results.

Process, Policy, & Procedure Development and Optimization

Organic policy and process growth without a strategic view and rigor around necessity and benefit invariably leads to procedural drag and cost. Our experts will develop and/or optimize existing such policies and processes to ensure role clarity, accountability, speed of delivery, and compliance with key internal and external rules and requirements.

Healthcare Technology Organization

Driving Revenue and Customer Satisfaction

Ankura collaborated with a national, private equity-backed healthcare technology organization, leading a cross-functional client team to redesign business processes and effectively integrate with a consolidated IT system. Following the engagement, the company saw a 50% reduction in customer implementation time and an 85% error reduction, improving overall customer satisfaction. Ankura also identified critical pain and risk points responsible for a 20% decrease in revenue and streamlined and automated complex, manual operational processes. The resulting optimized revenue cycle resulted in an additional $1.2 million in the first year, with rollout expected to result in ten times revenue recognition.
