OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT SERVICES

Process Documentation

Imagine that your company’s IT department consists of one person. This employee handles everything from end-user support to network management and even organizational stability, and one day decides that this job just isn’t cutting it and quits. The breadth of knowledge, security information, and key process understanding that this employee holds is beyond your understanding, and it is hard to know where to begin to not only keep business running as usual, but to bring in a new IT Specialist to take over these processes. + MORE

Here lies the importance of Process Documentation and the need for Imaging Path’s services. Imaging Path provides you formal digital data that can be stored at any given location, should you require it in a State of Emergency. The scope can be as detailed as a member’s role, responsibilities and even passwords. There is also an option to document large-scale training initiatives. For example, how many resources have you dedicated to implement education within your organization? Does it make sense to centralize all training materials for digital retention and utilization? Even better yet, how do you maintain it so that that the information is current and effective? The loss of this information can be more detrimental than a technology outage.

Process Documentation allows you to uncover, document, and create confidence in the way your business runs. By recording your business processes, you are able to better align operations with strategy, ensure consistency, understand the true costs of processes, improve productivity, uncover new opportunities, and allow room for profitable change. In addition, you gain immediate satisfaction through an understanding of your business processes, and future comfort knowing you are prepared for a disaster.

Our approach in creating this security blanket includes the following discovery and document formats:

  • Instruction and Training Manuals
  • Software Documentation
  • Role Definition and Recognition
  • Disaster Preparedness
  • Mapping and Workflow
  • Templates and Tools

Budget Development

It is not uncommon for the word “budget” to generate feelings of anxiety and uncertainty, raising many questions in the mind of a business owner. Do we have a budget? Are we staying on budget? How much are we over budget? Executives and Administrators rely on this single word to successfully run their companies, completing everyday operations using available resources and continuing to drive revenue to the bottom line. + MORE

Imaging Path takes a detailed approach to this process, engaging key stakeholders and opening an organized communication panel to discuss which items become priorities during the fiscal year. Versing yourself inside of this context requires a careful eye and a large understanding of operations. Imaging Path provides a detailed approach by engaging key stakeholders and opening a panel discussion, which leads to organizational communication about what items become priorities during the fiscal year.

Our key areas of focus are:

  • Planning and Administration
  • Budget Life Cycle
  • Forecasting
  • Status Reports
