PinkREADY™

What Is PinkREADY?

PinkREADY is a transformation program, risk identification, and mitigation planning service that enables customers to realize the promised benefits of their programs and projects, avoid unnecessary costs, and support organizational change.

Why is this important? Many process improvement initiatives fail because risks and barriers are not properly identified before the start of a major change. Increase your chances of success by using PinkREADY.

How Does PinkREADY Work?

A Pink Elephant expert consultant facilitates your transformation readiness and risk assessment by reviewing the “health” of 22 critical success factors necessary for program/project success, based on several best practice models and Pink Elephant’s extensive 20 years of organizational change management experience. The service leverages a comprehensive survey for management and staff and a facilitated risk analysis/planning workshop to deliver three key outcomes:

• Visibility into a change initiative’s state of health
• A prioritized plan for managing risks to the program/project’s success
• Key inputs for managing change

Who Is PinkREADY For?

PinkREADY is aimed at organizations that are starting major change initiatives or those already progressing through a change and are experiencing problems. Depending on which of these critical questions you face, Pink Elephant works with key stakeholders, including management, staff, and contractors to find the answer:

• Are we ready to start?
  • Are we ready to move forward with an investment in a transformation program based on the history of past transformation programs and our current operational culture?
• Are we ready to go live?
  • Are we ready to deploy our projects based on the activities completed during the planning, design, and implementation phase of the program/project life cycle?
• Are we ready to continue?
  • Are we ready to continue with the transformation program based on the success or failure of the program and related projects so far?
