Operating Models
Document How the Organization Works
An operating model explains how the major components of an organization work together to support its business activities.
Lamtas provides operating model writing support for companies undergoing growth, restructuring, service redesign, operational transformation, or organizational development.
The document can describe organizational functions, roles, capabilities, processes, systems, resources, interfaces, and decision structures.
Operating model documentation provides a broader structural perspective than a procedure or individual workflow.
Source information may include organizational charts, strategic plans, process documents, technology information, management notes, interviews, and existing operating materials.
Where the operating model incorporates legal, regulatory, technology, cybersecurity, financial, or other specialist considerations, appropriate professional review should be obtained.
