Design the target operating model faster, and stay on to prove it is built

Stratavue TOM Delivery turns your operating model work into a live client asset. Capture the current state from an AI first draft, design the target in one model, produce the deliverables your client signs off, and keep measuring how much of it exists.

A target operating model on one page: the vision, principles and each layer of the business today beside the target, generated from the model

What your team gets

The current state without the blank page

Describe the client's business in plain English and the AI drafts its business areas and capabilities. Your team corrects the first pass instead of building it from nothing.

Client-ready deliverables, generated from the model

TOM on a page, the capability map, current versus target, transition states and the operating model canvas, all drawn from the same model and exported as SVG, PNG or print.

A reason to stay after sign-off

The model keeps measuring how much of the target is actually in place, so the engagement does not end at the handover.

Why operating models end up on the shelf

“I've worked on every kind of deliverable, and alongside consultancy firms throughout my career. Two problems came up on every engagement.”
Joe Reid, Founder, Stratavue

You design it, and leave

The consultancy agrees an outcome, such as a business case or a target operating model, delivers it and moves on. A year later, nobody can show whether it was built.

You stay, and can't see it

The consultancy is still there, and finds it near impossible to map the live change happening in the client's business to the target it designed.

From current state to a signed-off target

The work your team already does, in one live model instead of a stack of slides.

  1. Capture the current operating model

    Start from the AI's first draft of business areas and capabilities, add processes, systems and customer journeys, or import what you already hold in a spreadsheet. The capability map draws itself from the model.

    A capability map of the business, each capability a box coloured by its recorded maturity from low to strong, with a legend counting each band.

  2. Design the target as changes

    Write the target as changes against today's model (add this capability, change that process, retire that system), so the target can always be read against the business as it is.

    Today’s capability map beside the target one, with the capabilities the target adds, changes and retires each tinted and counted in a legend.

  3. Plan the transition

    See the operating model at each step between today and the target, by the dates the changes are planned for.

    Transition states by quarter: each layer of the business, from organisation to governance, with every planned change placed in the quarter it is due.

  4. Produce the deliverables

    The operating model canvas, the twelve-element framework and TOM on a page are generated from the same model, so when the design changes every deliverable changes with it. Export to SVG or PNG for your own templates, or print.

    The operating model canvas: value proposition, the value chain in journey order, organisation, information, locations, suppliers and the management system, each zone filled from the model.
    The twelve-element operating model framework drawn as a wheel around the target model, with the elements that have target changes shaded.

  5. Agree the baseline

    Publish versions as the design moves, compare any two field by field, and have the client's executive approve one as the baseline, with who approved it and when on the record.

  6. Keep measuring after handover

    Every project is linked to the part of the target it delivers. Attainment is read from the model rather than reported, work outside the target shows as a standing number, and what Stratavue cannot verify says so rather than turning green.

    Three columns: target changes nobody is delivering, target changes matched to the work delivering them, and projects outside the target.

Less time drawing, more time advising

Start from a draft.

The AI's first pass means less senior time spent building the current state before anything is on screen.

Draw once.

Every view comes from the same model, so a change to the design does not mean redrawing six slides.

Stay consistent.

The capability map, the canvas and TOM on a page cannot disagree with each other, because they read the same data.

Fewer hours rebuilding the same picture means fewer people needed on every engagement.

A reason to stay once the design is done

A USP your clients can see.

You hand over a working model, not a PDF.

A natural reason to come back.

The model keeps reading whether the target is being built, which gives you a review every month or quarter rather than a one-off report.

You stay the people who can read it.

The client can see the distance; your team is the one that knows what to do about it.

Starting is low-risk

Use it internally first.

Model an engagement on anonymised labels, so your client does not need to onboard a new supplier.

Start small.

One engagement, one business area, then expand.

Work with the founder.

You deal directly with the person who built it.

Bring one live or upcoming engagement, and we'll walk through how Stratavue TOM Delivery would hold it.
