20th century business management consulting is obsolete
There is no framework or definition for the 20th century business. Any kind of “business solution” can be contrived and laid over the business. All solutions are by definition bad solutions, because they do not solve unsolvable 20th century problems. 20th century business management consultants propagate obsolete 20th practices and lay high-cost organization, process, information system, performance management, and administration structures over the client business.
New organization structures laid over the business prevent business management. Business process management prevents actual management of costs, quality, and value. Information systems implement high cost structures that describe the enterprise with conflicting terminology, but do not actually manage the business. Performance management control panels and scorecards define results as performance to prevent actual business management information. Administration structures for accounting, human resources, etc propagate inefficient functions and prevent actual capital and performance management.
There is no model for 20th century management consulting and business consulting services. 20th century management consultants can employ any business practice both good and bad. 20th century management consulting creates problems for the client and makes it more difficult for the client to compete against 21st Century Management.
Base your practice on fundamentally-correct 21st Century Management
21st Century Management uses Result-performance Management (R-pM) to organize and manage the actual enterprise business. R-pM abolishes high-cost overhead structures, manages actual business data, and provides actual business management information. R-pM provides the actual business structure to identify and define specific results needed and to develop required solutions result by result. The scope of R-pM consulting programs are defined within the business structure as specific results to be added or improved by new or improved performance solutions. All programs are managed by the enterprise and R-pM consultants provide professional assistance, where the enterprise lacks the skills and knowledge. All consulting programs are substantiated by clear and planned result value-added benefits.
R-pM updates management consulting services for the 21st century:
- Business organization and transformation services implement R-pM and organize the business for 21st Century Management
- Strategic management services define the strategic business in results of value and performance solution development needed to provide value-added benefits
- Business process management is replaced by result value-quality chains to manage performance capacity, costs, and effectiveness to produce result volumes, value, and quality, result by result
- Information system implementation integrates business and information system processing to produce each result in the chain, result by result
- Information systems are restructured later to provide a simple Result-performance Management System to manage the actual business through simplified business and computer processing modules to produce specific results
- Performance management is replaced by Result-performance Management to capture actual business data and provide actual business management information
- Administration is replaced by capital management to manage capital in operations and development and performance management to provide and maintain qualified solutions to produce results
- Other services for investment, capital development, financial management, corporate governance, etc are based on managing the actual and strategic business
All R-pM consulting is broken down to the basic business needs to provide cost-effective performance solutions to produce high value-quality results.
Employ the R-pM Management Consulting Model to guide services and the enterprise partnership
All R-pM Consultants employ the 21st Century Management Consulting Model, discussed in the Business Change Forum. The model helps the enterprise manage and lead development and improvement and helps the R-pM Consultant provide the proper assistance and solutions needed. R-pM consultants help the enterprise produce planned and measured result value-added. Base your practice on working in partnership with your enterprise customer to provide fundamentally correct and proven solutions to his problems.
Enter a growing market with an assured future
Enterprises cannot continue high cost and wasteful 20th century management. Once a competitor uses R-pM to organize his business for 21st Century Management, the enterprise must also move to 21st Century Management. The enterprise will require R-pM consulting support for the transition to R-pM and continuing support to increase result value-added through 21st Century Management. The same as 21st Century Management is the future of business management; the 21st Century Management Consulting Model is the future of business management consulting.
Access continuing on-going support
With 20th century consulting, each consultant and firm must provide its own knowledge, guidance, and support. R-pM Management Consultants and enterprise customers receive a wide range of R-pM support.
- The R-pM Toolkit is the 21st Century Management Manual and is an ongoing source of assistance for both the R-pM Consultant and the enterprise customer
- The R-pM Toolkit includes 21st Century Management descriptions, conventions, standards, and definitions. This enables consistent services across customers for collaboration, outsourcing, common solutions, etc
- Result-performance-management.com provides an expanding range of knowledge and learning on R-pM
- R-pM is supported by the Business Change Forum and the 21st Century Management Magazine to discuss specific 20th century problems and the use of R-pM for specific 21st century solutions
- New websites will be launched as R-pM grows at R-pM-consultants.com, R-pM-support.com, R-pM-solutions.com, and R-pM-education.com
R-pM support for the enterprise and management consultants will continue to grow as R-pM is launched into use later in 2008.
Maintain Certification as an R-pM Consultant
All R-pM Consultants are licensed year by year. Consultants must maintain a professional R-pM practice to renew. A directory is being built of licensed R-pM Consultants at Result-performance-Management.com to allow enterprise customers to locate and validate licensed R-pM Consultants.
This protects the professional image of R-pM consultants and their investments in Result-performance Management. Learn more about using R-pM to build a solid management consulting practice, and becoming a licensed R-pM Consultant at Result-performance-management.com.
