Business H2 Limited has created a toolkit of business solution modules which together form the Total Business Solution. Each of the modules comprises a number of tools which can be brought to bear on problems experienced by the business owner. All projects are carried out under PRINCE2 methodology.

Business Planning

This is probably the most important of the modules, and certainly, the one where Business H2 would recommend that most businesses start. Strategic Business Planning facilitates a thorough understanding of the processes within a business and provides the raw data to facilitate business change. The module contains four sub-modules which each contain a number of individual tools to enable an accurate picture to be drawn up of:

1.The level of achievement of the business to date under the previous business plan, together with details of any factors which prevented total achievement.

2.The present position of the business and any existing factors; both internal and external,  which may impact on the future development of the business.

3.The objectives and aspirations of the various stakeholders in the future of the business.

4.Finally, the creation of an Action Plan to facilitate the development of the business from (2) to (3) above together with any identified constraints. This forms the first and integral part of any programme for business change.

Further details of the Business Planning module appear on the Planning Page which can be accessed by clicking here.

The remaining modules in alphabetical order are:

Organisational Development

As businesses grow they evolve, develop and need to re-engineer critical processes to drive the business forward. This module includes tools to shape and track that growth and business change, facilitating the eventual exit strategy of the business owner.

People

People are the most valuable resource that a business has but like all resources they need to be respected. This module provides tools to drive the recruitment and retention of the right people, to understand the training needs of those people and to ensure that they are properly managed.

Product/Service Development

All products and services need to be developed during their lifetime until they reach maturity, when they need to be re-engineered or moved to a different marketplace. This module guides the development of products and services, identifies where they are on the maturity curve, facilitating re-engineering as required.

Further details of this module appear on the Product/Service Development Page which can be accessed by clicking here.

Systems

Every business has to have systems; be they manual or computerised, to handle all of the daily activity of the business. Activity such as: orders, sales, production, delivery, invoicing, banking etc. This module includes tools to streamline these activities to ensure that they do not become a drain on the resources of the business.

Whilst each of the above modules can stand alone, there is considerable inter-connection and some tools can cause reactions in other modules. It is for this reason that some tools operate across more than one module and some tools are common to more than one module.

Businesses can dip in and out of the modules to meet their needs but, Business H2 would recommend that such a process shouls always begin with the Business Planning module.

Mentoring

Business H2 can also provide a mentoring service to support those business owners who wish to undertake the business change process themselves. Full details of this service are available on request.
