              How It Works 

Organizations are inundated with detailed data tracking business operations. Unable to "digest" all this data, the classic solution is to aggregate it, or create averages and trends. This can conceal significant insight into performance improvement opportunities which can dramatically affect the bottom line.

The primary objective of Propel's analysis is to uncover these hidden opportunities. Propel has developed a proprietary three step analytical approach to identify opportunities to yield significant financial return. This three step approach is described below.

Step 1: Examine Actual Performance
To examine actual performance, Propel analyzes data that is available within a specific area of your business operations where improvement is desired. Propel's propriety toolset, SCOUT, identifies exceptional conditions warranting examination.

Step 2: Validate Opportunity
Propel reviews each of the potentially significant performance-related conditions with you to ascertain its implication and cause. We will then jointly determine the potential business "call-to-action" for each. Representative calls-to-action include: addressable business process, training, technology/information solutions, and management issues.

Step 3: Project Improvement Scenarios
Using our propriety tool, FADS, we will project scenarios for implementing each call-to-action. Each projection will include: the cost to launch an associated initiative; its expected benefits; and, the risk-adjusted return on investment. Propel will document the findings in a presentation which serves as the formal deliverable for the project. We will then present the findings to you and, as appropriate, identify next steps for your organization.
