Improve Processes & Methodologies Through
Business Health Check
A Business Health Check is a broad evaluation of the essential components of your business. It consists of a series of thought-provoking questions that cause you to look at the operations and functions of the business from the perspective of an outsider.
Why It Matters
Like a physical health exam, a business health check should be conducted regularly, no less than annually. A health check ensures the business is tracking towards its goals. It’s an opportunity to make course corrections, mitigate or exploit risks or market changes, or take advantage of new and innovative solutions.
The most discernable benefit of a health check is the big-picture view of your business, a synopsis of where you stand. You’ll gain basic knowledge of the overall performance, opportunities for improvements, employee health, end-user experience, organization culture, engagement, and alignment.

Performance Assessment
Great companies consistently monitor their growth and progress. A vital part of monitoring progress entails measuring the actual performance of a business against pre-determined goals and objectives. Regularly assessing business performance shields the business from unexpected consequences related to poor performance. It uncovers opportunities to lower process costs and improve productivity and mission effectiveness.
Why It Matters
Studies show that effective performance management is essential to businesses. Performance management entails continual monitoring and measuring to ensure strategic objectives are met according to projections. During the assessment process, warning flags are raised to highlight areas that require attention or present an opportunity for improvement, and prospects are uncovered to increase revenue and/or decrease costs.

Business Impact Assessment
A Business Impact Assessment (iBIA©) is a methodical process that identifies and assesses the effects that accidents, emergencies, disasters, and other unplanned, negative events have on a business. Its focus is on events that disrupt operations – when business cannot proceed normally due to a negative incident.
iSeek’s Business Impact Assessment (iBIA©) often entails thorough assessments of one, several, or all of these areas:
business processes, technology platforms and infrastructure, human capital, and organizational structure.
Why It Matters
Many businesses equate a Risk Assessment with a Business Impact Assessment. Whereas a risk assessment seeks to identify risk factors and the probability of them occurring, a business impact assessment, which can be performed before or after an event, seeks to evaluate how any identified or actual risk has affected the business.
