IROCs enable faster response and integrated decision-making across the value chain, supporting functions and planning horizons; improving accuracy, responsiveness and quality of decisions whilst driving a culture of operational discipline and continuous improvement.

Organizations approach integrated operations and digitalization in many ways. We can help you define the right style of IROC for your company according to its business context, strategy, goals and needs.

Companies that add IROCs achieve an initial performance gain, but consistently suffer long-term from poor operating discipline. Our research indicates that existing IROCs experience multiple areas of value loss, most commonly from limited decision-making capabilities, lack of alignment with the new ways of working and redefined role requirements. These factors highlight the importance of a continuous approach that monitors, updates, and provides insights to improve operations over time.
