Operational Excellence for Newspapers

As one of the leading management consultancies for media companies we have seen many different organizations from the inside. One thing that we have learned is that operational excellence is a major success factor that safeguards the future. In many hundreds of projects we have helped newspaper publishers to implement operational excellence and gained experience as to how to do so. Thus, we know how important it is to ensure that an organization will be agile in the long-term while also making sure that efficiency is increased and that innovation is constantly in progress. These goals might seem hard to reach, especially as cultural change must go along with it. But it is well worth the effort.  

We assist newspaper publishers to reduce complexity and also make sure that structures for information- and working-processes are optimized. Also we consult regarding different outsourcing solutions.

Some examples for operational excellence projects we have carried out are:

• Usage of our one-of-a-kind benchmarking-database for media processes
• KPI/Best practice solutions
• Optimization of processes
• Strategic development of organizations
• Cost-cutting-programs
• Outsourcing-programs
• Transformation of organizations
