Why think "operations management"? Why get ARDOREN®?
Operating performance is the backbone that holds up the enterprise’s financial performance. While dialogues around ‘efficiency’ abound, several questions remain largely unanswered in existing traditional approaches to operations management. First, while beating up in the name of efficiency, to what extent do these approaches actually nourish and encourage efficiency that sustains over long periods? Second, what about ‘effectiveness’? Is there genuine and general recognition of effectiveness as an equal partner in the enterprise? Third, to what extent are these approaches holistic, and build in all necessary human and infrastructural enablers? ARDOREN® is designed to address such substantial questions. Get ARDOREN® to move away from approaches replete with clichés and truisms, built around caricatures of efficiency.

Who will benefit from ARDOREN®?
First and foremost, heads of operations benefit from ARDOREN® in several ways. ARDOREN® provides an objective and multifaceted view of the quality of operations. Moreover, it allows operating leaders to recast operations models and approaches for better results. In addition, operations leaders are able to single out causal linkages, and isolate people and infrastructural bad actors. Supervisors of units and departments benefit from the product’s framework, by being able to conceptualise a possible picture of higher quality operations. Frontline operations employees benefit from tactical and tangible guidance; from greater clarity in protocols and practices; and from enabling infrastructure. Indeed the operating unit, and ultimately the organisation, benefit from operations that get stronger and more resilient.

Where (in which settings) should you get ARDOREN®?
Get ARDOREN® if you have been observing any of these seven symptoms. First, your organisation’s financial performance has been modest despite its adhering to a high quality strategy and completing major initiatives. Second, your operating heads have struggled to turn in the targeted operating performance. Third, different parts of the organisation tend to follow different operations models and constructs. Fourth, you have noticed a proliferation of operations concepts and tools in the recent past. Fifth, there is palpable frustration in the frontline from the absence of standardised protocols and enabling infrastructure. Sixth, your organisation has had to deal with adverse events in the recent past. Seventh, and most tellingly, you know that your organisation does not pride itself on the quality of its operations.

How does ARDOREN® work?
ARDOREN® is designed on the basis of our proprietary five-part framework with the acronym EFFIC. With ARDOREN®, you will undergo the four stages of ‘installation’, ‘engagement’, ‘analysis’ and ‘dissemination’ over ten weeks. To install ARDOREN®, you will identify symptoms that indicate poor quality in operations design and operations performance management. You will decide the subject of the research by identifying specific operating units, divisions or teams that need the evaluation. ARDOREN® will then engage with the subjects to obtain their inputs, and parallely leverage relevant operations records. The analysis of inputs will be grounded in the product’s framework. The research output with quantitative outcomes and qualitative narrations will then be made available to organisation leadership.

When during the operating year should you get ARDOREN®?
ARDOREN® is designed for biennial as well as episodic usage. ARDOREN® requires ten weeks to go through the ‘installing’, ‘engaging’, ‘analysing’ and ‘disseminating’ phases. While using ARDOREN® on a biennial calendar, the more suitable times are the second or fourth quarters. Second quarter is appropriate if you want to evaluate the situation from the first quarter and leverage the research findings in the second half. Fourth quarter is appropriate if you want to start out the year with a recast approach. We discourage usage during the third quarter, since the research output then does not find immediate application, and risks being overlooked. For your first time usage or an episodic usage, we do not recommend a preferred timing. Instead, get ARDOREN® whenever you encounter the symptoms mentioned earlier.
