What to Expect from our Operations Transformation Solution?

If you want to stay ahead of the competition, gain opportunities, and tackle threats the right way, you need dynamic and evolving operations. SORTAgile can help you address these challenges by designing and implementing successful operational transformations according to the needs of your business.

Here are the primary areas we can help you achieve operational excellence:

Business Agility

We offer you the best solutions to empower you to adapt rapidly to dynamic market opportunities and risks in a cost-effective and productive way.

Financial Performance

Financial assets are the most integral part of making a business successful. However, the incorrect way to utilize this asset can also lead to losses and damage to the business, moving you away from your business goals and desired outcomes. Therefore, high-quality financial performance is essential to keep a business up and running, and our services aim to do that for you. We offer operational transformation solutions that aim to optimize the use of assets and resources to deliver robust financial results and give you a competitive edge.

You need your business to be scalable, and our services help you achieve it. We offer tailored solutions to help you expand and grow your operations efficiently without the need to add more resources, team members, or costs.

Clarity and Transparency

Two of the most important ingredients to accomplish the success you want your business to achieve are clarity and transparency. When the operations are more visible, clearer, and perceivable by the employees as well as by the customers, it gives an exceptional boost to the trust they put in you. We transform your operations with expertise so that they have enhanced visibility. This clarity will not only ensure the integrity of processes but will also enable you to predict and tackle future issues proactively.

What our clients say

"Many [benefits] but probably the most important was that we saw who we could count on and who is in the wrong place (e.g. xxx - wrong place, xxxx exceptional dependable bandwidth, xxxx uninterested). With senior manager transitioning and the fast growth of the business it was necessary to quickly upscale and you helped greatly with this. In the short terms the exercises were expensive however the benefits will be felt in the medium and long term. Most favorite part was breaking processes down to their simplest form, and then being able to discuss these with staff in simple language that people at all levels understand. Once the scope was agreed, you 'just got on with it."
Aftab Jivanjee. Finance and Admin ManagerCarbacid Co2
"I enjoyed most your hands on approach and in depth engagement. Yes, I have learnt & benefited individually about business process improvement, the company has benefited with improved pricing, updated underwriting documents and customer service. There has been improved turnaround times in underwriting, update and automation of proposal forms and policy documents which have improved customer service".
Luke Munene, Deputy Actuarial ManagerThe Monarch Insurance
"SORT was frank, candid and went out of their way to make the assignment as relevant and practical to NOPE as possible. Assessment of NOPE operations, dissemination of findings and recommendations to the Board and Management have resulted in: - Discussions with KRA on tax arrears, agreeing on a payment plan and ensuring that NOPE is up-to-date with PAYE - Having a strong, evidence-base for the next strategic plan - Incorporation of institutional strengthening in proposals for funding."
Philip Mbugua, Executive DirectorNOPE
“I went to the workshop with a clear idea, I needed to improve the customer experience of our service, so the workshop helped me to map the customer journey and have a better understanding of the different wastes within our value chain. Eventually we created an action plan to work on delays and extra processing that were frustrating our customers in terms of bad deliveries."
Mimmo, E Commerce ManagerVivo Active Wear
"I loved the Prompt objective feedback with SMART action points. You were able to breakdown huge challenges into small doable time based activities that eventually arrives at a solution. You achieved this by enabling cross-functional teams focus on solution based objectives."
Hellen Muchira, Credit ManagerThe Monarch Insurance
“Thanks to the workshop I realized we had some problems on our internal meeting structure, this was creating delays on deliverables and we were not utilizing correctly our talent, we manage to improve internal timing by changing the structure of meetings and this impacted on our customer satisfaction”
Caroline, General ManagerNairobi Garage
“We have reduced extra motion, for example, we have developed a system to communicate with members. Also, my colleagues have taken time to reduce items from their desktop which makes it easier to retrieve documents.”
Lynn, Community ManagerFoundry Africa
The organizational assessment has given more insight on the situation. The other times we have spent more money and doing strategy did not go into depth of what the challenges were, there was no staff survey. This has been different, it has been a learning session with more focus on what we need to do as a team, setting of the goals and objective, think outside the box, think critically. There was an indication that we may not be able to agree on the second objective, but we finally did.  Thank you so much of the excellent facilitation skills
Edith AluProgram Manager, SWAP
Reflective, practical and engaging…
David MuyendoCountry Director, CBM
I had the pleasure to work with Liz in 2016, she demonstrated a strong desire to develop and train other staff. Liz has a detail knowledge on the microfinance sector and combined with her awareness of the social and cultural fabric of Ethiopia she provided me with the tools to succeed at my current role. I found her a great coach, she is a good listener and understands my concerns and fears. At the same time, she is very persistent – there is no excuse for not succeeding.

SORT has valuable expertise in strategy deployment and process improvement. The service was exemplary structured right from online survey questions, one on one discussions with my staff and workshop with management staff. The level of engagement was excellent. Elizabeth was committed to her work and managed her time very well.
Alex MwakiCountry Director, SWAP. Kenya.
I have worked with Liz on different assignments in Ethiopia and Kenya. Each time, I was impressed with her professionalism and determination for reaching conclusive outcomes within limited time frames and resource constraints. She is the one who is not afraid to put in what it takes to achieve results. Her innate leadership quality and her ability to remain on top of situations would be hard to miss even for someone meeting her for the first time.
