Teams - Business strategy - Establish excellence

Establish a model for excellence

Business operations help organizations thrive. You manage the inner workings of your company, constantly seeking ways to generate revenue, increase productivity, and reduce costs. Define your business strategy and plans in a purpose-built workspace in Aha! Roadmaps to bring a great level of transparency to your operating model.

Craft your business strategy

Use built-in strategic models — including lean canvas, SWOT, and Porter’s 5 Forces — to identify growth opportunities and drive progress. Explore bold new strategies on a whiteboard and evaluate the best path forward. Then, establish a clear set of measurable, time-bound goals (or OKRs) and initiatives to crystalize your foundation for organizational success.

Put your strategy into action

Create a strategic roadmap to align different functional groups around a common purpose. Highlight your company goals and initiatives, establishing a clear roll-up relationship between the work each group is doing — including product management, engineering, IT, and marketing — to show how everything ties together.

Monitor real-time progress

How are you performing against the annual plan? What is the status of goals and initiatives? Knowing these answers is critical for assessing progress. Automatically calculate the percentage complete of your objectives based on the progress of underlying work. Share updates with the team and monitor high-level dependencies to keep everyone on track.

Report on impact

Capture all your key business metrics in Aha! Roadmaps. Use custom worksheets to set budgets, track costs, and calculate ROI. Create sophisticated reports to analyze your data and add them to a live dashboard to keep leadership informed. Integrate with Power BI to combine this data with other sources for a complete view of company performance.
