Consistent standards
Shared master data, roles and processes are versioned.
Capabilities Multi-site control
Capability · Multi-site control
Unify standards.Preserve local intelligence.
Define what must be common, what may vary and how sites consolidate data, decisions and performance without losing context.
A capability shaped by your flows, rules and field evidence.

Framed autonomy
Local variations are allowed where they create value.
Comparable consolidation
Indicators retain shared definitions, scopes and calendars.
Progressive rollout
Pilot, wave, recovery and adoption follow each site’s risk.
Decision framework
Connect promise, responsibility and proof.
Multi-site is not about copying a configuration. It organises master data, rights, models, exceptions, rollout and consolidation at scale.
Gaps to eliminate
What weakens day-to-day decisions.
Each gap connects an observable situation to a business consequence. Diagnosis then verifies frequency, impact and cause.
Divergent master data
Items, customers, assets and units change meaning by site.
Fragile consolidation and transferRigid central model
The standard ignores local legal, physical or organisational constraints.
Workarounds and low adoptionOver-broad rights
An identical role exposes different scopes without rule.
Risk and ownership confusionNon-comparable KPIs
Each site calculates service, stock or productivity differently.
Contested central controlOperational journey
A chain of decisions, not a stack of screens.
Each transition identifies the participant, responsible system and expected proof.

Model
Separate common and local
Master data, processes, roles, rules and indicators are classified by level.
- Owner
- Group governance
- Proof
- Versioned target model
2
Site
Qualify variances
Constraints, volumes, equipment, maturity and local integrations are documented.
- Owner
- Site / project
- Proof
- Explicit fit-gap
3
Deploy
Roll out in waves
Data, interfaces, tests, training, recovery and cutover follow a site plan.
- Owner
- Programme
- Proof
- Ready go-live and rollback
4
Operate
Govern over time
Support, versions, exceptions, local requests and data quality are monitored.
- Owner
- Centre of excellence
- Proof
- Decision and service SLA
5
Consolidate
Compare without decontextualising
Results use shared definitions and explain local differences.
- Owner
- BI / management
- Proof
- Group view and site reading
Decision lab
Change context. Follow what genuinely needs to happen.
These scenarios are illustrative: they show decision logic and responsibilities without claiming to simulate your actual outcomes.
New site
Deploy the standard without importing old errors
A site joins the network with its ERP, codes and practices.
Map, cleanse, reconcile and decide allowed variations.
Master data, roles and flows validated before cutover.

Success conditions
What must be true before automation.
Explicit scope
Activities, sites, participants, systems and boundaries are defined before any automation.
Named responsibilities
Each data item, rule, decision and exception has a business owner and responsible system.
Observable proof
An action is only treated as complete after verifiable feedback from the field or execution system.
Before / after measurement
A baseline, indicator, horizon and interpretation limits are agreed before the pilot.

Frequently asked questions
Decide with the right boundaries.
Must existing systems be replaced?
Not necessarily. Scoping distinguishes what should be retained, connected, extended or replaced based on value, risk and expected responsibility.
Can we start with a limited scope?
Yes. One flow, one site and a few critical decisions can test data, rules, interfaces and adoption before extension.
How is real time defined?
By the decision window. Each event must specify its source, frequency, acceptable age and degraded mode.
Are outcomes guaranteed?
No. Benefits are measured against an agreed baseline, scope and period; no generic percentage is promised.
How are exchanges secured?
Through suitable architecture, role-based rights, logging, retention rules and risk-proportionate monitoring.
Who approves business rules?
Named business owners, with IT and execution teams contributing; overrides remain traceable.
