Increased Likelihood of Success—our approach provides improved organizational acceptance, reduced challenges associated with change management, and more focused execution; all of which lead to improved likelihood for success.  Large-scale, all-encompassing efforts that promise huge payoffs in the distant future often collapse under their own weight.

More Effective Cost Control—as benefits begin to accrue efforts can become partially or completely self-funding and smaller, incremental investments can be weighed against the benefits that an organization expects to achieve with each additional phase. 

Increased Flexibility While Mitigating Risk—this multi-phased approach provides the opportunity to alter course or take corrective action as circumstances require.  Go/no-go decisions can be made prior to launching additional phases that require incremental investments.  Large-scale, all encompassing efforts requiring substantial upfront investments may lock organizations into a particular course of action even while internal or external factors warrant change.

MarkWest Consulting’s goal and commitment is to deliver value to our clients.  We utilize an Accelerated Benefit Attainment ^TM approach to maximize the benefits our clients realize.  With this approach we take large-scale efforts and break them down into smaller, more manageable phases that quickly begin to provide benefits to our clients.  The success, and related benefits, are built upon as additional phases are completed.

While it can be alluring to seek out the “big bang” solutions which promise significant benefits while requiring large upfront investments and a long time horizon, we strongly encourage our clients to adopt the Accelerated Benefit Attainment ^TM approach for several reasons:
