Optimisation

Back-office inefficiencies often stem from a lack of functional expertise, insufficient automation and integration,  fragmented processes, and replication of tasks.

 

Our comprehensive analysis will highlight opportunities to reduce costs and enhance the quality of your services.

What our clients say

CEO, TKAT

“CJK Associates helped us get a really clear view of our current services.  CJK’s benchmarking was really helpful, as was the independent gathering of views from our trustees, headteachers, and operational teams.  CJK then supported us to develop a strong framework for moving forwards.  They were knowledgeable about the barriers that needed to be overcome, clear about the solutions, and provided us with great direction”.

CEO, Dartmoor MAT

“The work of CJK Associates gave a laser sharp appraisal of our current position in terms of both strategic mapping and operational efficiencies; the proposals emanating have helped us to streamline where needed and to grow functions where this was necessary. An invaluable partnership that has brought better strategic fit and resultingly operational excellence”.

CEO, E-ACT

“The initial assessment was incredibly valuable in collating a range of information on process, costs and service quality.  Going through the exercise promoted us to process map, brought to light variation in regional delivery practice and provided insight into the aggregate impact of services in schools as well as evaluation of an  individual service.  The partnership with the CJK team made the process of discovery useful to the executive team and the board as we charted what a change programme might look like.  The careful attention to Headteacher feedback also reflected our organisational culture with the opportunity to co-construct future models with input from across E-ACT”.
