Lecot, a leader in the construction materials sector, recognised the need to streamline its analysis processes. With growing project demands and a mix of internal and external analysts, there was an urgent push to implement a standardised, market-conform 'Way of Working' to drive consistency, efficiency, and collaboration.
A challenge: creating clarity in a dynamic environment
Lecot operated in a dynamic environment where analytical processes had evolved organically across teams. While this approach offered flexibility, it also resulted in a variety of tools and methods being used, making it challenging to maintain consistency in documentation and alignment. With priorities regularly shifting to meet evolving business needs, this environment sometimes impacted efficiency and made it harder to fully capitalise on growth opportunities and scale operations in a structured way.
Building a scalable way of working
We partnered with Lecot to design and implement a clear, structured, yet straightforward 'Way of Working,' rooted in best practices. This included tailored workshops to map current processes (SWOT analysis), identify gaps, and create future-proof documentation standards, competency profiles, and a collaboration model.
Lecot now operates with a unified analysis process, backed by clear roles, standardised documentation, and strong cross-team collaboration. Analysts confidently own their processes. As the way of working is unified, simplified and straightforward, it leaves room for continuously improving that way of working.
Key benefits for Lecot?
By establishing a structured yet flexible 'Way of Working,' Lecot empowered its analysts to take ownership, foster knowledge-sharing, and deliver consistent value. The result is a more agile organisation that responds swiftly to market opportunities without compromising quality.
