MSCONSULTING’S SERVICES 

Change Management

Finance & Accountancy

Technology

Our technology team liaises directly with CIOs and CTOs to implement project teams and support their digital agenda. Whether it’s providing end-to-end support for a digital transformation, providing a managed service for multiple project resources or technical specialists for a systems implementation.

Governance, Risk & Compliance

We work with compliance teams, often in conjunction with finance, to provide project support or assurance where clients need controls and process improvement. This could be in response to rapid growth, readiness for an event such as sale or listing or where they have been recently acquired and have new obligations such as the Sarbanes Oxley Act.

Investment & Advisory

Our transactions team support clients with their M&A strategy, predominantly in the SME and mid-cap market with deal values of between £10-£20million. Additionally, we can support with financial due diligence pre and post-deal.

• Pre-Deal – Data cleanse and preparation of the data room and liaison with advisors and deal structure.
• Post-Deal – Professionalise the finance function to ensure reporting and governance are in place for the new PE or corporate environment. We also provide project and technical support to ensure any TSA requirements are met.

THE BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH MSC

The Ask: The Agency invited suppliers to tender for a managed service delivery partner to support its overarching transformation programme and change initiatives. A comprehensive suite of services and expertise were required including Target Operating Model design and Business Architecture; Culture Change initiatives; Organisational Design for the new structure; Service and Process Design; development of a Digital Strategy; assessment of Data Architecture; Business Case Development and Strategic Workforce Planning over the estimated 18 month life cycle of the project. The Agency indicated a minimum requirement of 26 delivery resources as part of managed project team at commencement scaling up and down in line with project needs over the term. 

The Approach: Following notification of successful tender, MSC and Marks Sattin worked together to mobilise and stand up the project team of 26 multi-disciplinary transformation experts at pace. The initial team comprised a combination of senior transformation experts, programme managers, business analysts and project professionals with subject matter and delivery expertise in each of the change areas. The final team were vetted, interviewed and assessed against the requirements and the MSC values to ensure the appropriate technical and cultural fit with the requirement and ways of working. 

The Solution: Following mobilisation, MSC delivery experts were integrated into the transformation team with central oversight, assurance and coordination, provided by the MSC assigned partner to ensure all products and services exceeded expectations and aligned to the programme’s objectives. Where client requirements or transformation priorities changed, MSC and Marks Sattin worked together to onboard new or replacement project resources at pace without disruption or loss of project momentum. For example, as illustrated overleaf, a Generative AI specialist was brought in for a use case assessment over a three-month sprint to help shape part of the overall digital strategy assessment. 

The Outcome: All design work was successfully completed during Phase One of the programme with proposed operating model, digital strategy, workforce plans and organisational designs approved by the Executive Committee .We have been retained to deliver the implementation phase of the programme.
