Packaged solutions have been developed without a structure of defined enterprise needs
Packaged capital solutions, such as application software, management learning programs, practices and procedures, and performance management methods, help the enterprise meet specific solution needs and save the extra cost of development.
Developing packaged solutions has always been difficult, since there has never been a consistent structure used by all enterprises, within which to develop and apply solutions.
The enterprise had to adjust to some standards to use early packaged solutions. Over the years, solutions have gotten more sophisticated and industry-specific to the needs of individual enterprise customers. This has raised the cost and narrowed the application of packaged solutions.
We need to go back to the need for a consistent structure so that capital solutions can be developed and packaged at a low cost and can be utilized by any enterprise.
The structure to develop packaged solutions that any enterprise can use exists: the business
The structure has existed all along, but has never been used to define enterprise needs and to develop and utilize consistent solutions to meet the needs. That structure is the business in “investments in capital as solutions of worth utilized for costs and effectiveness of performance to produce value and quality in results”.
The enterprise business consists of three components:
- Results: The economic outputs needed for business success that create the value from the business
- Capital Solutions: The capital invested in the business that is consumed and utilized in performance
- Performance: The utilization of capital that generates the costs incurred by the business to produce result value
The enterprise business structure is like a large spreadsheet with the results produced by the business defined by the columns and the capital solutions available to produce results defined by the rows. A cell is a performance domain where a specific capital solution row is utilized to incur costs and produce value in a specific result column. All the solution rows utilized by one result column add up to the total performance cost of producing the volume of the result. All the result columns produced along one solution row add up to the total costs incurred by the solution.
Result-performance Management (R-pM) organizes the business structure to utilize specific capital solutions to produce specific results. Packaged solutions are implemented along a row to produce results for specific result columns.
Packaged performance solutions are defined by capital category and class
R-pM organizes capital in the enterprise capital structure in four categories to provide professional support:
- Business capital: Business capital is specific to produce a particular result. Business capital includes the organization to produce a result, the business and information system process followed, and the data about from the business transaction that affects or updates the result or other business entity. Business capital requires business knowledge and analytical capability
- Human capital: Human capital includes personnel that must be maintained ready to produce results, the human capability that must be developed to produce a high-quality result, and the knowledge needed develop and support humans to use solutions and produce results. Human capital requires human handling and development capabilities
- Facility capital: Facility capital includes reusable financial and equipment facilities, consumable cash and supplies, and accounting and other records. Facility capital required administrative capability and solution expertise
- Management capital: Management capital includes strategy and plans for results, the tactics to produce good results, and the intelligence to know the right results and results against plans. Management capital requires management judgment. analysis, and research
R-pM organizes capital further by the way people produce results, to define performance solutions into three capital classes:
- Readiness capital: The organization, people, work place and equipment. and plans to be ready to produce a set of results in a deployed result unit
- Production capital: The manual and computer process, human skills and capabilities, supplies, and directives needed to produce a specific result
- Information capital: The Business Information Base consisting of data concerning the result and business entities, knowledge for background and instructions, records to document actual against planned results, and intelligence to know the operating and business environment for the result
R-pM organizes all solutions as one of twelve solution types to be supported, deployed, and utilized to produce results:
- Business capital: Business organization, business process, and business data
- Human capital: Human personnel, human capability, and human knowledge
- Facility capital: Facility equipment, facility supply, and facility records
- Management capital: Management strategy, management tactics, and management intelligence
Capital solutions produced to be utilized in business operation and capital development must be in one of the twelve solution types for performance management.
Packaged solutions are packaged by the proper solution type to be utilized with other solutions
Business organization solutions package aids to develop and manage the business structure. Business process solutions include packaged application information systems and business process solutions that must be integrated to produce results. The business process then is implemented and integrated with other production capital to produce results. Business data solutions manage business data entities and the enterprise business information base to manage access and security, to integrate information by result, to provide access to related information, and maintain the base.
Human personnel solutions keep human capital ready to produce results through recruitment, actions, compensation, rewards, outplacement, etc. Human capability development solutions are used to develop, manage, and assess a particular capability on the job. Human knowledge solutions include learning programs and created knowledge to develop and support human capability, use R-pM in general, use specific capital solutions, and produce specific results.
Facility equipment solutions cover infrastructure, network, and equipment planning, operation, and maintenance. Facility supply solutions manage the acquisition, control, and delivery of cash and supplies to produce results. Facility records management solutions are needed to manage complete financial and non-financial records of results produced and to provide records solutions to produce other results.
Management strategy solutions develop and manage the strategic result business structure and support governance. Management tactics solutions provide management tools and assist result evaluation, performance assessment, and result-performance optimization. Management intelligence solutions include data analysis, business and customer research, opportunity and threat analysis, strategic option development, etc.
Business-wide solutions can be developed to manage results and performance
Many business-wide solutions are possible for packaged Result -performance Management Systems, Result-performance Management learning programs, Result-performance strategy development, Result-performance Management solutions, etc
Specific Result Management Solutions can be developed by Result Group
Results are organized into result groups by the three main objectives of results.
- Revenue: To meet main enterprise objectives to produce products and services, generate revenues, or meet other reasons for the enterprise
- Capital: To support the capital utilized in performance and to provide qualified solutions to produce results
- Investment: To manage enterprise change over time in investments, capital development and implementation for new solutions, and strategic value creation
Solution developers can design solutions to produce specific result groups. Revenue result solutions can be industry-specific to handle specific industry exceptions, manage specific result value-quality chains, and update the business structure.
Capital result solutions can support capital management and improvement and performance management to provide and support specific solutions for specific results, for all capital or for a capital category.
Investment result solutions manage change over time for investment analysis to analyze and plan new solutions to create future result value, for capital development projects as a sub-business structure to develop and implement new performance solutions as results, and for strategic result-performance management to manage the creation of strategic result value and govern the enterprise.
