Structured Three-Phase Approach to Zero-Based Redesign Implementation Structured Approach to Building a Fact Base for Strategy Link Between Long-Term Cost Productivity and Shareholder Value

Cost Productivity is our management system for lowering unit cost while protecting service, quality, and growth capacity. Zero-Based Redesign (ZBR) is the method that decides what work deserves to exist, then designs how it should run. Together, they fund growth, build resilience, and make results durable.

ZBR follows a 3-phase process: set a bold ambition, design for the future, deliver results. This sequence links strategy, design, and delivery, and keeps value, service, and risk visible.

The ZBR Cost Transformation framework delivers impact through 8 actions that move from ambition-setting to Design, Deployment, and Change Management. We use ZBR to make Cost Productivity repeatable, visible, and tied to outcomes.

1. Align leadership around bold ambition
2. Identify sources of value and set direction
3. Design an ideal state that supports strategy (the "what")
4. Design the future state (the "how")
5. Define a holistic blueprint
6. Detail design
7. Scale and deploy
8. Manage the change

We define Cost Productivity, introduce ZBR, explain the 3-phase process, and provide 8 action deep dives with diagnostics, examples, and a reusable visual that tracks progress across the deck.

This deck on Zero-Based Redesign also includes slide templates you can use in your own business presentations.

Structured Three-Phase Approach to Zero-Based Redesign Implementation

This PPT slide outlines a structured approach to implementing Zero-Based Redesign (ZBR) through a three-phase process: setting a bold ambition, designing for the future, and delivering results. The first phase involves aligning leadership around a clear goal to establish strategic direction. The second phase focuses on identifying value sources and planning the steps to achieve the ideal future state. The final phase emphasizes detailed cross-functional design using Agile sprints and scaling solutions for deployment. Managing change is critical throughout the process to sustain benefits and ensure adoption. Successful ZBR implementation relies on a disciplined, phased approach that fosters strategic clarity, operational planning, and effective execution, ultimately driving significant cost and efficiency improvements.

Structured Approach to Building a Fact Base for Strategy

This PPT slide outlines a structured approach for establishing a fact base to guide strategic direction through value identification. Key actions include creating a detailed cost map by activity and function, supported by external benchmarks, complexity scores, and digital readiness assessments. The process involves comparing the current state with best practices and redefining each function's mission to align with organizational objectives. Critical steps include setting investment posture, design principles, and cost targets, while effectively communicating these to leadership. The timeline for diagnostics and resetting efforts spans 4 to 6 weeks. An example illustrates how a finance function can pivot towards efficiency by establishing a baseline cost map and mobilizing workstreams. This methodology aligns cost management with strategic priorities, emphasizing external benchmarking, digital readiness, and leadership alignment as key enablers for successful transformation initiatives.

Link Between Long-Term Cost Productivity and Shareholder Value

This PPT slide highlights the relationship between sustained cost productivity and Total Shareholder Return (TSR). A chart compares average TSR CAGR from 2016 to 2021, showing that companies maintaining productivity for 5 years achieved a 22% TSR CAGR, significantly above the 8% sample average. Most companies sustain productivity for only 0-1 years or 2 years, indicating that long-term discipline is rare, but leads to superior performance. A multi-year productivity program, tied to leadership accountability, is essential for enhancing shareholder value. The key takeaway is that a disciplined, long-term approach to productivity directly correlates with increased TSR, reinforcing the need for strategic change management.

Stages of Value Capture in Zero-Based Redesign Framework

This PPT slide outlines the stages of value capture within a Zero-Based Redesign (ZBR) framework, emphasizing a three-wave process over 18 to 36 months. The initial phase focuses on quick wins within 6-9 months, involving the elimination of unnecessary tasks and service level reductions to generate early value. The second wave, lasting 9-18 months, includes no-regret moves such as automation and standardization to enhance efficiency with minimal risk. The final phase, spanning 18-36 months, targets large-scale transformations or "big bets," incorporating end-to-end process changes and advanced technologies like AI to achieve substantial value gains of 20-30%. Early wins and no-regret moves build momentum for subsequent transformative initiatives, highlighting the importance of strategic planning and careful timing in embedding major process changes for long-term benefits.

Structured Deployment Approach for Banking Transformation

This PPT slide outlines a structured approach to scaling and deploying banking initiatives for measurable results. The core action, "Scale and deploy," focuses on converting approved designs into deployable units, managing backlogs, and executing a wave plan to accelerate benefits. Key components include establishing dedicated scale teams, standardizing operational procedures, and utilizing a centralized command center for progress tracking. The deployment timeline spans 6 to 18 months, with Wave 1 in 6-9 months and Wave 2 in 9-18 months, emphasizing the management of interdependencies and swift plan adjustments. A practical example demonstrates a finance automation project scaling from 2 pilot markets to fifteen waves, with dashboards tracking progress and bottlenecks. This disciplined, wave-based approach enhances operational efficiency and accelerates benefit realization in large-scale transformation initiatives.
