PRODUCT OPERATING MODEL
A product operating model is a strategic approach to software product development used by product businesses that places the technology at the core of a business's operations.
We have experience assisting project-based businesses to transform into product businesses and have developed our proprietary approach to the organisational transformation required.
CHANGING THE WAY A PROJECT-BASED ORGANISATION OPERATES
The way of working for a product business is distinctive and champions the idea that technology is not just a support function but a driving force in creating value for customers and achieving competitive advantage.
A Product Operating Model outlines the approach your business takes from concept to delivery, managing products at every stage of their lifecycle. It details the collaboration between different parts of your organisation to implement the strategy effectively and bring value to customers, users, and the company itself. We have written a lot about these changes - you can read more here.
THE PRODUCT TRANSFORMATION FOCUSES ON REFRESHING THE PROCESSES USED BY YOUR PEOPLE
A Product Operating model encompasses the management of product development, integrating technology and software development at its core. Operating with a distinct technology or IT model often indicates a project-based approach, where business units specify requirements for 'delivery teams' or 'squads' to execute.
Our focus at Propel Ventures is to ensure a cohesive and integrated operation that leverages technology as a fundamental asset in product development and delivery. We have written extensively about this change, and you can read more here.
Propel transformed a set of distinct, specialised tools into a cohesive, unified system that enhanced the operational efficiency and strategic agility of the business.
