Yet, according to a flash poll conducted by Baker Tilly, 49 percent of respondents said their organizations only conduct an operational review when reacting to an issue—and 14 percent of respondents said their organizations never conduct operational reviews. That’s like driving on a partially inflated tire. It may be possible for a while, but eventually you’ll experience a blowout and wish you had comprehensive roadside service.
Successful organizations find operational reviews so critical that they often pair an operational review with other organizational efforts such as strategic planning, succession planning or financial planning. This combination is an effective way to align strategy and operations—ensuring the identified objectives arrive at the destination of your organization’s goals.
