Organizational Design for PE-backed Consumer Goods
The client, a PE portfolio company in the consumer goods space, was missing out on market opportunities due to slow decision-making, inefficient communication and bureaucratic processes.
“The portfolio company was under-performing. The key to the turnaround following our investment was to make the organization more fast-paced and agile.” — PE Firm Operating Partner
The client sought a consultant with a proven track record in organizational redesign and prior experience collaborating with PE-firms.
Consultport proposed 4 strong candidates within 48 hours. The client interviewed 3 candidates and selected a former Principal at Mercer with 12+ years experience in organizational design. The consultant started working with the client team 72 hours after the initial request.
The consultant conducted a thorough analysis of the current organizational structure and identified bottlenecks in existing workflows.
The consultant also ran several workshops with cross-functional teams to gain in-depth understanding of the company’s strategic goals and facilitate alignment among key stakeholders.
“Combining quantitative data from the analysis with human insights from the workshops, we had a solid foundation to build our initiatives.” — Organizational Design Consultant
The reorganization roadmap quickly demonstrated its value, earning leadership endorsements from both the portfolio company’s executives and the PE investors. The roadmap’s clarity and structured approach provided stakeholders with the confidence that the transformation would be executed effectively, minimizing risks while driving tangible benefits.
