Driving Growth With An Operational Overhaul

Challenge

A large real estate development company’s inefficient system of operation was resulting in significant losses. We were tasked with helping them embark on a new phase of growth, to achieve a level of excellence which could be replicated across the group.

Approach

We conducted an audit of the organisation’s current resources practices, structure and processes to successfully facilitate a business modelling workshop, which identified and evaluated the key function areas. Drawing organisational charts for the company’s different departments, we designed and allocated specific functions across divisions and identified issues for change. This process also allowed us to identify the business’s non-core functions and recommend innovative corporate restructuring interventions that would streamline operations. We also engaged closely with the company’s large blue collar workers segment to ensure the organizational transition was managed as seamlessly as possible, and that employee well-being was a core consideration in our proposed interventions.

Results

As part of a huge collaborative effort with the company’s management, the latter leading a complete financial restructuring of the firm in parallel, we supported with a total strategic and organisational restructuring of the business that led to its share price rising 150% in just one year.

It has been a pleasure working with CID in implementing our first CSR initiative with the Ministry of Education.

A quick note before my last day tomorrow to thank you all for the great support and advice you have given to me and the business since we entered Egypt. It’s added great value to our decision-making, from your understanding of the political dimension to how issues will be perceived ‘on the street’. You have covered all the angles! You are a great team, and I will very much miss working with you all. Hopefully we will get the chance to work together again in the future. I know that Diana is very much looking forward to working with you, looking ahead. In the meantime, keep doing what you do.
