Business Recovery Planning The ongoing unprecedented Covid situation is calling for a different approach for all organizations as market shutdowns have and are causing organizations to scramble for response. McKim and Associates has tremendous real life insight and expertise in volatile and challenging markets to guide you through these challenges.
Valuation and Succession Planning More businesses will change hands over the next few years than ever before as demographics bring owners to prepare for retirement by transitioning the company to family or designated successor or planning the actual outright sale. This takes forethought and preparation. McKim and Associates has extensive experience in business valuation, business positioning and transition.
Community Care and In Home Services Community Care is consistently challenged with increasing demands and diminishing resources. To address this means increasing your efficiencies without losing the critical care aspect. Operational excellence means serving more people in your community. Gathering the correct data to make evidence-based decisions, reviewing the market and client needs, developing working Key Performance Indicators and implementing national standards such as Accreditation Canada are all essential to successful organizations in this field. McKim and Associates has first hand experience with these issues and can provide solutions.
Performance Indicators Measuring progress is essential to good business. It can be complicated and potentially overwhelming. Too much of the wrong measurement can slow you down and create frustration and loss of trust with your team. Today organizations require information that is timely, relevant, accurate and not overwhelming. We can help.
Financial Projections Seeking investors or monies for expansion or acquisition? Planning for the future requires solid market assessment and growth projections. When this information is not readily accessible, the market is new or too small to have formal market stats, we specialize in gathering and creating operational financial assessments to ensure you have the information you need in language you understand to make informed decisions.
Staff Management and Training Good staff is hard to find and harder to retain. The cost of staff turnover can be as high as 30% of the positions salary. Improving effectiveness and reducing staff frustration requires excellent onboarding and training. Many new managers fail when they are thrown into the deep end to sink or swim without proper leadership basics. Our team specializes in focusing on the core needs and development programs to ensure your team can adjust to changing requirements.
