Operating Models
Businesses have understood the value of having a standard way of operating since commerce began.
- Leveraging experience in a meaningful way is rare. Few business understand the true value of encoding, and maintaining their model and how to leverage it. - An operating model must describe what a business does, how it does it and how its success is measured in a consistent and integrated way that is accessible to all employees

Digital Integrated Operating Models
A well-designed Operating Model creates clarity around how the business actually works—removing waste, reducing complexity and providing a foundation for continuous improvement. As an enterprise grows, so does the need for integration. Processes, roles, responsibilities and performance must connect across organizational boundaries, from enterprise-level outcomes to the work being done every day. When this Operating Model is integrated and digitally enabled, the enterprise becomes visible. People can see how work flows, understand how their actions contribute to outcomes, and identify where things can be improved. This shared understanding creates the foundation for greater human agency, faster adaptation and a more connected enterprise.
