Addressing the Core of Your Business Challenges

At Mesh Impact, we have developed a trade mark methodology to help you anticipate the evolution of the market in the realm of climate change, of a changing competitive landscape. Our approach to project-based consulting is rooted in the philosophy of systemic innovation. This means that before we even begin to think about solutions, we invest significant time in understanding the problems your business faces—at a fundamental, systemic level. We believe that effective innovation is not just about creating something new; it’s about addressing the real, underlying challenges that impact your entire organization and its future in the market, global warming as the first driver of change.

Why Starting with the Right Problem is Crucial

Too often, businesses rush to implement solutions without fully understanding the problem. At Mesh Impact, we begin by deeply exploring the business issues at hand. We focus on the “why” behind the challenges you face, not just the “what.” This involves a thorough analysis of your company’s strategic challenges, risks, and opportunities. By understanding the true nature of these issues, we can develop solutions that are not only effective but also sustainable and aligned with your long-term business objectives.

A Cross-Business Unit, Global View

Innovation cannot thrive in silos. To effectively address your company’s challenges, we take a holistic, cross-business unit approach. We don’t just focus on a single department or business unit; instead, we look at how issues intersect across your entire organization. This systemic perspective allows us to identify risks and opportunities that might be missed if viewed in isolation. By understanding the interconnectedness of your business functions, we can develop solutions that enhance overall efficiency, reduce risks, and drive growth across the board.

Identifying Systemic Risks and Strategic Challenges

Every business faces systemic risks—challenges that, if left unaddressed, could threaten the core of the organization. These risks might be external, such as market shifts or regulatory changes, or internal, such as misaligned business units or outdated operational processes. At Mesh Impact, we work with you to identify these systemic risks early on. By doing so, we help you anticipate potential threats and build strategies to mitigate them. Our goal is to ensure that your business is not just reacting to challenges but proactively shaping its future in a way that is resilient and sustainable.

A Design Thinking Approach to Fine-Tune Solutions

Once we’ve identified the core problems and understood the systemic risks, we move into solution development. We use design thinking as a framework to explore and refine potential solutions. This iterative, human-centered approach ensures that the solutions we propose are not only innovative but also practical and aligned with your company’s unique needs and capabilities. Through prototypes, testing, and feedback loops, we fine-tune our approach, ensuring that by the time we reach implementation, the solution is robust, scalable, and ready to deliver real impact

From Problem Identification to Systemic Solutions

1. Initial Scoping and Strategic Planning

• We start by thoroughly understanding your company’s challenges and opportunities through an initial consultation and performance analysis.
• Using design thinking workshops, we dive deep into your business issues and governance challenges, followed by a strategic planning phase where we define key problems, objectives, and a clear roadmap for innovation.
• This phase includes contractual agreements to set clear milestones and decision points, ensuring alignment and clarity from the outset.

2. Prototyping and Testing

• In this phase, we move from concept development to prototyping. Our team collaborates closely with your internal teams, combining Mesh experts with your own resources to generate ideas, conduct feasibility studies, and develop initial prototypes.
• Through iterative testing and market feedback, we refine these prototypes, involving industry and technological experts to ensure robustness.
• This phase is guided by contractual agreements specific to prototyping, with milestone reviews to assess progress and make necessary adjustments.

3. Solution Delivery and Implementation

• Once the project is fully scoped and the team is in place, we move into the execution phase. The team works on implementing the solution, with a strong emphasis on meeting your timelines and quality standards.
• Throughout the project, we maintain close communication with you, providing regular updates and incorporating feedback to ensure the solution remains aligned with your expectations.

Our pricing model for project-based consulting is designed to provide flexibility and transparency while ensuring cost-effectiveness.

• Team-Based Pricing: We define a dedicated team that works primarily in-house at Mesh Impact’s office, but with regular engagement and collaboration with your team. This includes occasional on-site work at your office as needed.
• Bundled Monthly Package: The pricing is structured as a bundled monthly package, based on the daily rates of each team member, adjusted for a bundled discount. This means you benefit from a reduction in the price per head when engaging the entire team, while still maintaining the flexibility of a time & material contract.
• Flexible Engagement: This model allows you to scale the level of support as needed, with a clear understanding of costs upfront. It combines the predictability of a bundled package with the flexibility of a time-based engagement.
