Performance Improvement: Speed,
skills and decisiveness are key
mas offers a range of services to help convert a solution into a result. With our co-execution approach we ensure that results are achieved.
Operational Performance Reviews
The Operational Review provides company management teams, company investors and boards with a focused, short term assessment of operational performance improvement potentials and necessary actions.
There are a host of situations where this analysis can be valuable, including:
- due diligence input before M&A transactions
- target setting and action scoping for planning significant improvements as part of annual planning or 3 year planning
- regular annual/bi-annual review of portfolio companies
- unsatisfactory company performance situations

Turnarounds
In turnaround situations you need experienced leaders to act quickly and decisively to avoid mistakes and compound the waste of time and resources. Our approach is to create a small, effective team to complement existing management teams, blending together the right spectrum of skills to support the financial and organizational restructuring, as well as the needs of an operational task force. In a co-execution situation, we act as interim managers to complement your team. Our diplomatic but results oriented approach has in several cases returned struggling operations to profitable growth.
Co-Execution – Our engagement model in
operational performance improvement
Understanding how to design and implement a performance improvement program is good, but one must also have the right engagement model to be successful. So our engagement begins by working with those mandated to affect change. Top management, company owners and investors, ambitious Boards and CEOs. Our first goal is define a clear mission. Is it a turnaround, a strategic transformation or a performance improvement that is needed? Working closely together, we identify the priorities and then set to work. With a clear mandate, we then assemble a team of experts with the right skills, professional and management experience, and the right blend of toughness and social competence. We ensure that resources are placed at the right place and time, minimizing waste maximizing effectiveness. Above all, we take responsibility for the program, keeping all levels of the organization – from the Board level, through to executive and operational levels – working together to ensure things really get done.
