At the Advance stage, the focus is on introducing and consolidating best practice to ensure continued growth. The focus is now on consolidated growth, with strong supporting systems, controls and reporting.
Enhancement and strengthening of the board and the management team will be addressed and there will need to be a recognition that it may require changes at a senior level.
The company continues to be dynamic and fast moving although changes to the core operations and product set are less frequent. This stage allows for the cessation of certain parts of the business if they are not performing, ensuring focus on the highest return activities.
Cashflow remains essential, and the marketing and sales are subject to efficiency reviews through measurement and analysis.
The culture of the company will be established and additional controls, policies and systems will be introduced and existing ones strengthened. Measurement and performance against the business plan will be possible and key performance indicators will be established for better management.
Shareholder/investor relationships continue to be important and additional financing or acquisitions can be considered. Credibility has been established and will require support to ensure large customers and suppliers are maintained.
Commercial strategies will be revisited to ensure they are applicable and to highlight where there may be market or competitive risks and scale issues for growth.
Exit opportunities and business continuity planning will become a key focus for strategic development.
Effective control systems will require reinforcement and rationalisation to continue to support the growth and ensure that it doesn't impact the smooth operations of the organisation.
Areas of Focus for the Company will include:-
- Sales process and growth
- Cashflow management
- Hiring and retaining of staff
- Statutory and Legal Issues
