Global Advisory <strong>Offering</strong>s<br />

3<br />

This is an exciting time in Advisory as we launch our #AdvisoryCONNECTED strategy. At a time when our competitors are<br />

becoming more siloed, our strategy is to become the most “connected” consulting business, integrating the five dimensions of<br />

EY: Clients, Sectors and <strong>Offering</strong>s, Capabilities, Functions, and Areas.<br />

To be successful in this new paradigm, we need to:<br />

►<br />

►<br />

►<br />

►<br />

Win and differentiate in a rapidly shifting marketplace<br />

Prepare our business to succeed in 2020 and beyond<br />

Evolve our strategy, so it continues to be successful<br />

Give our people what they need to succeed… a sustainable legacy<br />

This <strong>Offering</strong>s <strong>Playbook</strong> is an integral part of pivoting our business to a model that leverages repeatable, scalable offerings that<br />

we build for our clients and that can evolve to span sectors, geographies, and service lines. The framework described in this<br />

document will enable us to move more quickly, have better transparency around investments and ROI, and keep clients at the<br />

heart of all we do. I ask all of us to become familiar with the new approach and to take part in helping to deliver on the value of<br />

Executive summary<br />

5<br />

I’m pleased to present this <strong>Offering</strong>s <strong>Playbook</strong> being launched as part of our #AdvisoryCONNECTED strategy. Our new<br />

approach to <strong>Offering</strong>s is client-centric and is designed to help accelerate our growth and innovation by bringing greater<br />

consistency, speed, asset reusability, and integrated capabilities to how we identify, build, and activate offerings. In fact, we’ve<br />

built this playbook by tapping into the work already being done by the many <strong>Offering</strong> teams throughout EY.<br />

However, as we all know, a <strong>Offering</strong>s <strong>Playbook</strong> on its own doesn’t guarantee success. We’re also allocating resources in new<br />

<strong>Offering</strong> roles, implementing new funding processes, and we’re prioritizing investment in <strong>Offering</strong> development to maximize<br />

opportunities to promote innovation and entrepreneurialism that crosses service lines<br />

►<br />

►<br />

►<br />

►<br />

►<br />

Develop new and innovative service offerings addressing mega trends<br />

Enable increased EY market share within and across sectors.<br />

To accomplish these goals we are strengthening our focus on <strong>Offering</strong>s, and actively building and managing our portfolio of:<br />

Core offerings that today make up the majority of our Advisory business and are the pillars of our sub service line teams and<br />

capabilities<br />

Sector <strong>Offering</strong>s that address industry issues, are built with clients, and can be scaled in the market to drive $100+m of<br />

revenue per year<br />

Global <strong>Offering</strong>s that are at the heart of convergence and disruption across sectors, have the potential to dominate the market<br />

with $500+m of revenue per year, and are a blend of delivery models, service lines, and capabilities (e.g., managed services,<br />

technology assets, EY intellectual property, and alliances).<br />

By implementing a consistent approach and connected pathways for commercial opportunities across all sectors, clients, and<br />

geographies, we can rapidly test and sharpen new propositions in the market and engage clients in co-design opportunities. This<br />

new <strong>Offering</strong>s <strong>Playbook</strong> includes a supporting framework which will enable, mobilize and accelerate the impact these <strong>Offering</strong>s<br />

will have in the market.<br />

I invite you all to join in our #AdvisoryCONNECTED strategy by taking a leading role in <strong>Offering</strong> development, sales, and delivery.<br />

Together we can accelerate Advisory’s strategic contribution to all of EY.<br />

Prospective <strong>Offering</strong>s can come from a variety of sources, with a range of potential returns on investment and time needed to activate in the<br />

market. Each type of <strong>Offering</strong> needs an appropriate and consistent approach to activate and scale. Here is a single framework for accommodating<br />

the various types of <strong>Offering</strong>s:<br />

For identifying, developing, and launching <strong>Offering</strong>s (Regions, accounts, clients)<br />

11<br />

Our bigger <strong>Offering</strong>s typically originate earlier in the <strong>Offering</strong>s funnel and require more investment and time to bring to market. All <strong>Offering</strong>s must<br />

have client involvement to validate the value proposition and market demand, and will need to pass stage-gate reviews as they progress through<br />

their life cycle.<br />

Global <strong>Offering</strong> design approach<br />

From Discover through Activate<br />

13<br />

Minimum Viable Product (MVP) – is a development technique in which a new <strong>Offering</strong> is developed with sufficient features to satisfy early<br />

adopters. The final, complete set of features is only designed and developed after considering feedback from the <strong>Offering</strong>’s initial users.<br />

Excitation Phase<br />

Discover<br />

Global <strong>Offering</strong><br />

design approach<br />

1. Discover<br />

Identify prospective <strong>Offering</strong> concepts by examining megatrends and what types of<br />

innovative projects are happening across network that will impact clients in the future and<br />

that can we uniquely exploit.<br />

2. Ideate<br />

Define the problem we are looking to solve. Quantify and qualify the prospective <strong>Offering</strong><br />

opportunity, demand drivers, and market potential. Document this in the Business Case<br />

which addresses how problem are we looking to solve.<br />

3. Incubate<br />

Test the <strong>Offering</strong> with internal and external stakeholders/clients and validate or pivot the<br />

strategy and detailed value proposition to assess true market feasibility and gain buy-in.<br />

4. Design/Build<br />

Complete the design, build the <strong>Offering</strong> and develop the go-to-market plan including the<br />

development of methods, tools, and intellectual property. Refine all the internal and<br />

external requirements and preparations for launch including finalizing the GTM plan, BMC<br />

support, and training.<br />

5. Activate<br />

<strong>Offering</strong> activitation – Launch the <strong>Offering</strong> for sales and delivery. Develop operations and<br />

establish processes/mechanisms for <strong>Offering</strong> maintenance, enhancement and retirement.<br />

How to Engage<br />

23<br />

Client Issued Challenge Client RFP Repack <strong>Offering</strong> to Scale New/Emerging Market or Technology Issue<br />

I am a RAMP: A channel 2 healthcare<br />

client in my region is bringing a consortium<br />

together to solve the issue of diabetic<br />

patient non-compliance to drug programs.<br />

The client has already signed heads of<br />

agreement with Samsung (channel 2) as<br />

their tech partner and has asked EY if we<br />

want to be part of this consortium for the<br />

compliance piece. This could eventually<br />

become a joint-venture between the three<br />

of us.<br />

How do I <strong>Offering</strong> for this?<br />

I am a GCSP on a P&U G360 account: My client<br />

wants to build a finance shared service center<br />

(SSC) offshore. I told the CFO that we could do it<br />

for them at scale and run it as a captive managed<br />

service.<br />

This would involve a lift-and-shift of all their<br />

processes to India or Manila. Then EY would hire<br />

lots of people there to do the work, but as we are<br />

also expecting to put in robotics process<br />

automation (RPA) at the same time, the net effect<br />

is having a lot less heads.<br />

I know we have an RPA <strong>Offering</strong> and technology<br />

relationship with Blue Prism. I know we have a<br />

Finance Transformation <strong>Offering</strong> through the<br />

Finance competency. I know some teams have<br />

built offshore centers before, but I’m not sure if<br />

that is a repeatable <strong>Offering</strong>. This is a $20m deal.<br />

I am the Analytics sub-competency<br />

leader inside Risk: This is the third time I<br />

am seeing this same kind of request coming<br />

in for analytics benchmarking of supplier risk<br />

ratings.<br />

We should have an offer around this as we<br />

are making it up from scratch every time.<br />

No-one seems to have the time or money to<br />

do that up the analytics line or up the Risk<br />

line so we just keep reinventing the wheel at<br />

the accounts and sending around slide<br />

decks instead of building these analytics<br />

once in a way that can be reused.<br />

How can this be resolved?<br />

I am the Advisory CPR Sector Leader: We have<br />

been watching the startup community for a year and<br />

one of them jumps out as a leader in augmented<br />

reality. They now have Unilever and Mondelēz as<br />

clients but they also have Bank of America and Ford<br />

who are conducting early pilots with them. Seems<br />

this is running ahead and away from us.<br />

We want to ideate and work with this startup to see<br />

how this technology is being applied and to come up<br />

with a few industry <strong>Offering</strong>s ourselves. We don’t<br />

have any of our clients asking for it yet but feels like<br />

we need to get in the game and do some<br />

investigation and experimentation very soon.<br />

Who can I speak to for some investment in this to<br />

potentially turn it into a new <strong>Offering</strong>?<br />

How do I <strong>Offering</strong> for this?<br />

1. What is the right operating model for<br />

this <strong>Offering</strong>?<br />

2. How could we activate the network to<br />

deliver?<br />

3. Who should you have support from?<br />

4. What would be the funding model?<br />

5. What should you do once the <strong>Offering</strong><br />

has been established to ensure that<br />

others know about it?<br />

1. How would you take this forward?<br />

2. Who should you have support from?<br />

3. Who would you connect with regarding Blue<br />

Prism/Alliances?<br />

4. What are the challenges you might face?<br />

5. What would be the funding model?<br />

1. How would you take this forward and<br />

turn this into repeatable <strong>Offering</strong>?<br />

2. Who should you have support from?<br />

3. Who should you connect with?<br />

4. What are the challenges you might<br />

face?<br />

5. What would be the funding model?<br />

6. Is it my job to tell people about this or<br />

will someone else pick it up?<br />

1. Who do I talk to in EY to get some investment in<br />

this?<br />

2. Who else should you connect with?<br />

3. Who else should you have support from and<br />

make aware about this?<br />

4. What are the challenges you might face?<br />

5. How would you take this forward and turn this<br />

into repeatable <strong>Offering</strong>?<br />
