Four years ago, after joining Bio-Rad and being tasked to create a Business Transformation Office, Arnaud Rager designed and deployed a Transformation Framework that was applied to end-to-end processes such as Sales and Operations Planning, Order to Cash, Procure to Pay... and drastically improved the company performance on all fronts.

Join this session to learn about the central elements of this Business Transformation Framework:

• Project Management: Alignment between sponsor, stakeholders and core team members is a critical step to set the project for success. If done right, and with the right project leadership, core team talents and Project Management framework in place, project execution becomes the easy part.
• Process Excellence: Traditionally rooted in Lean and Six-Sigma methodologies, adding the latest digital technologies such as Process Mining, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, revealed with speed and accuracy processes we did not think we had, allowing us to transform them for accelerated revenue growth and cost optimization.
• Change Management: Our Change Management approach is simple yet powerful: Make it Real, so people realize the current state is changing and decide to be part of the change. Make it Work, so people learn new skills to carry the change and demonstrate they can perform in the new environment. Make it Last, so people are accountable to maintain the new environment.
