4 New Programmes For Higher Performance

June 2010: New Pace Consulting sets a new pace for higher operational performance of small, medium, and large enterprises. The boutique firm based in Lausanne, Switzerland, announces four innovative customer-specific consulting programmes that lift organisations to higher performance levels and generate measurable impact in short time.

Exactly, what does high performance mean?

High performance is indicated by results such as:

  • Streamlined processes serve clients effectively, leading to high customer satisfaction and loyalty.
  • Clear responsibilities of employees and managers result in fast decision-making and swift strategy execution.
  • Transparent structures, business processes and information flows improve employee motivation, minimise risks, and increase the enterprise ability to grow.
  • A consistently executed strategy ensures business sustainability.
  • High efficiency of business processes increases profitability and shortens processing times.

Why four?

Our projects and direct customer feedback has allowed us to enhance our focus on four typical classes of organisations. Each requires a specific set of actions to achieve higher performance:

  1. Fast growing SMEs 1
  2. Well-established SMEs
  3. Large enterprises
  4. Not-for-profit organisations

Distinct focus for each

  • Fast growing SMEs require structures and processes for growth and early break-even. They also want to minimise their risk of failure. Consequently, the key is to create sound foundations, define processes and structures, and assign clear responsibilities.
  • Well-established SMEs can find themselves in the "success trap": performing quite well, they still do not use their full potential. Our programme focuses on helping such companies increase their profitability, regain agility, enhance their client base, and become more attractive to employees - all this is essential for sustained success.
  • Large enterprises virtually always run improvement programmes. The challenge is to make these improvements really stick and ensure that changes are understood and executed throughout the organisation. Our programm New Pace Approach for Continuous Execution (ACE) is an effective method to ensure sustainably high performance in large businesses.
  • Not-for-profit organisations (NFPOs) are devoted to the effective fulfillment of their mission. High operational efficiency and strategy execution are often not on top of their priorities, yet they are key to high-quality service and good donors' relationships. Our special program helps NFPOs establish strategies, structures, and processes required for effective mission fulfilment.

What makes New Pace Programmes different to "normal consulting"?

In 3 words: Results, results, results. Our package-based delivery model guarantees faster impact at lower costs:

  • Fixed prices: New Pace delivers only at fixed prices as compensation for provided value and achieved benefits.
  • Clear objectives: New Pace starts projects only after measurable objectives have been agreed upon. Consulting for the initial goal-setting phase is free of charge.
  • Execution: New Pace puts special emphasis on the execution of concepts and methods. Without it, any improvement remains a dream, and not reality.
