Business Health Check
When did your company last have a health check?
When did you last visit your doctor or dentist?
If there doesn't seem an obvious link between those two questions,
consider this: why would your business be any less important than
your personal health?
And yet, many owners of small and medium sized companies do not
even think about getting an independent business health check, even
when they know they have significant problems. We do business Health
Checks all the time.
A Health Check from ibd for your business is a
painless exercise that can identify inefficiencies and lost opportunities.
An objective assessment by an experienced business Adviser could
make a huge difference to your company - a greater understanding
of the problem issues and underlying causes, and a prioritised action
list of what needs to be fixed most urgently. We have numerous examples
of companies that have saved many thousands of pounds after our
Health Check, and identified all sorts of problems that they were
quite unaware of before.
Free Health Checks Available
Many businesses will qualify for a free Health Check if they meet
the simple qualifying criteria - a minimum of 6 employees, OR at
least £200,000 annual turnover, and they must be located in
mainland UK. The meeting will be attended by an expert ibd
Adviser, and all principal decision makers in the business must
be present at the meeting.
How does a Health Check work?
The Health Check is conducted at your premises and takes around
an hour. There are no obligations, on either side. Our qualified
Adviser will take you through a series of questions about different
aspects of the business that will enable us to identify the key
strengths, weaknesses and opportunities of the operation. The Health
Check uses a rigorous and well proven diagnostic tool to produce
practical and meaningfull results on completion.
The Adviser will then discuss the findings with you. He/She will
suggest aspects of your business where savings could be made, or
where there is potential to increase productivity and profitability.
At the end of the meeting it is entirely up to you how you wish
to proceed, in the light of any suggestions made by the Adviser.
There is no obligation on either side. You may wish to implement
improvements yourself, or you may want an ibd team
to do this for you. Of course we will be happy to prepare and implement
an action plan for you through our extensive network of specialists.
Either way, the path to improvement of your business starts with
the essential Health Check. It's an important opportunity to get
an absolutely objective view of your business.
