Support for a major national humanitarian organization involved in emergency and health care in transforming its geographical organization from 12 regions into 6 business units
Mission
- This French NGO aims to improve the economic performance of its business units (17,000 employees) through an organization that brings together the business expertise functions and the managerial line in charge of overseeing the 600-plus units.
- To achieve this, General Management wanted support in designing an organization based on 6 business units, so that future business unit managers could be allocated the dedicated functions needed to manage their activity effectively.
Approach
- Determining the target organization and budget for each business unit:
- By level: centrally and for each geographical territory,
- By function (management, HR, management control, quality, etc.),
- By budget item (payroll, travel expenses, external services, rent, other expenses, etc.).
- Determination of resource allocation keys shared between business units:
- Corporate functions,
- Shared services centers (payroll, accounting).
- Assessment of social impact and development of a support and transition plan.
Results
- Favorable opinion given by the CSE-C to the proposed new organization.
- Reduction of 2 hierarchical levels in the organization chart.
- Bringing together expert business functions and regional managers for the same activity within the same management line.
- Social impact and PES costs minimized by reallocating resources within the various BUs.
- Deployment of the plan in 3 months after validation of Book 2.
