Organizational Design

Successful organizations need clever organizational design. Thriving organizations do not just happen – they are built to be sustained over time. Operational design involves structuring roles and responsibilities, appropriate headcount, productivity standards, corresponding information flows, and job descriptions within the context of established goals and objectives.

Calyptus performs comprehensive organizational reviews and studies, creates and assesses job classifications, and evaluates and determines workload and staffing. We use Full-Time-Equivalent (FTE) analysis tools to assess staffing in line with best practices and industry standards. Our capabilities and services address managerial and unionized workforces.

Organizational Assessment

We use an organizational assessment approach to determine the effectiveness of a given organizational structure and culture. We follow a multi-step method to assess organization structure alternatives. Ninety-eight elements are evaluated across several key dimensions. For manufacturing clients, vision and strategy, objectives, measurements, continuous improvement, and supply chain improvement are assessed. We assess organizational quality using a Malcolm Baldrige-related tool.

Headcount studies

We can perform headcount studies to compare a company’s headcount to best-in-class practices and benchmarks.

RACI chart Analysis

Calyptus will also use RACI chart analysis to link current roles and responsibilities to the responsibilities referenced in policies and procedures and in other organizational systems of record.

Calyptus Group's organizational assessment offerings can be tailored to a client’s market and applied to both public- and private-sector clients. The objective is to help leaders structure their organizations so that they accomplish overall business strategies while efficiently executing the tactical, day-to-day tasks. Calyptus uses a participative process to surface the best ideas and organizational nuances critical to any organizational design. The result is an organizational design chosen and embraced by the organization itself, infused with Calyptus Consulting's insights, best practices, and facilitation skills.
