Unlike other industry-standard models, which require an extended time commitment and complex execution, Nolan’s Process Maturity Model is intuitive to administer. Its straightforward language and logical progression of maturity levels make it easy to understand the business value of each stage as it applies to your organization. The Nolan model can be deployed as part of ongoing operations, without the need to create a designated department or invest in additional infrastructure — making it a cost-effective way to continually align your capabilities with the demands of a changing industry.
The Nolan Approach
Process maturity is based on both qualitative and quantitative data. From the moment you identify the objectives and processes to be addressed, our consultants conduct interviews, make observations, review process documentation, and analyze key metrics and controls against key process maturity attributes. Then, we apply our considerable expertise to synthesize the information and outline the specific advancements that must be made to achieve desired maturity levels.
Your specific needs will drive the length of your assessment and remediation period; however, work can generally be completed in four to eight weeks.
