Across the healthcare sector, change management is necessarily an ever-present necessity of continuing in business. Economic, technological, population and many other factors operate in a constant state of flux, and organisational change is an ever-present challenge which must be managed optimally at all times to maintain performance at the highest level.

At Sierra North, we fully understand the challenges of the sector and take a partnership approach with our clients so that we are with you every step of the way. Our teams have collectively seen decades of change in many international healthcare environments and are on hand to help you take the next steps in your organisation and to keep you at the leading edge.

Change Management Strategy

Healthcare and life sciences organisations operate in an increasingly dynamic climate which – while hugely challenging – also offers a significant opportunity to develop as leaders in the delivery of high quality products and services.

Many organisations have internal teams in place and have given much thought to developing their commercial proposition in a fast changing environment. There are many factors that must be taken into account in developing a nimble and effective commercial strategy, particularly as the full impact of COVID-19 is still far from certain.

How We Can Help

SENSE: We can support you in identifying areas where existing services could be evolved to provide a compelling value proposition.

SEIZE: Defining optimal operating models, financial analysis, risk management and market growth plan. In summary, we can help you to develop a complete up-to-date business plan, with the resources to work with you to implement it.

TRANSFORM: We can support you through every stage of the development of a service or product, or a bid design and tendering process, leveraging our detailed understanding of the key requirements of healthcare and related services to ensure you have a quality, risk optimised approach that will deliver the best chance of a successful outcome.

Our services include helping our clients to identity all of the key facets to ensure the successful development and implementation of a robust growth strategy. Our experience tells us that there are some key fundamentals which need to be in place to ensure success, including:

• Securing formal support from senior management including specific financial provision to pursue a project
• Developing clarity on what the product or service offering is and why it will be beneficial to its target customers; such customers will often have a problem to solve, rather than a defined specification
• Helping clients to develop a solid understanding of the relevant risks, then developing a matrix to identify and manage specific risks
• Navigating legal, regulatory, cultural and organisational hurdles
• Securing a comprehensive understanding of the routes to market – including potential delivery partners who may open up opportunities simply to operate at all, or to raise commercial finance and investment to share costs and risks
