Introducing the Partnering Readiness Score

What is it?

The Allinnova PRS is an assessment service with online components that enables you to visualize your organization's capability to partner, whether bi-lateral or in an ecosystem of partners. PRS Score is the summary of our alignment gap analysis and optimization strategy process, applied specifically to your context.

Our PRS is a continuing refinement on the Alliance Management best practices from the Association of Alliance Management Professionals (ASAP) and other sources. Combining our own experience, with that of practitioners, ASAP's own best practice committee as well as academic research, we have developed a unique product with the following benefits:

1. Grounded in thoroughly vetted, generally adopted practices that are relevant to partnering
2. Independently managed instruments and process, to safeguard bias in the results
3. Regularly updated weighting scales to reflect relative importance of practices
4. Practitioner oriented, real world practices and evaluation methods: efficient, effective ad results oriented.

At what point should an organization deploy our gap analysis?

• Preparation for Partnering: The readiness assessment. Do we have the right personnel and do they need additional training/support?
• Internal Alignment: Enabling the alliance partners to have regular constructive review and enhancement planning meetings together
• Strategic Objective Implementation: Is our Alliance capability able to support the strategic demands of the company?
• Alliance Responsibility: Will everyone in our organization constructively be able to take on responsibility for Alliance related activities?
• Successful onboarding: implementation of the alliance plans in the first 18 months.

Why deploy a gap analysis project with your partner organizations?

We believe it is time to make some changes in how you are monitoring the success of your alliance efforts.  No more guessing at performance indicators, no more defending the crucial need for your activities in the absence of quarterly results. Your team needs to have a handle on what practices to implement and how well they are being followed.

We have refined the concept of 'best practice' by analyzing which best practices contribute more significantly to partnering ROI than others. The result is GAPP, the Generally Accepted Partnering Practices. GAPP are an integral part of our PRS scoring and analysis tools, giving you a sophisticated insight into the current state of partnering in your organization, as well as a unique ability to compare other organizations apples-to-apples. 

The Allinnova PRS can provide you that insight:

• Anonymously
• Comprehensively
• Based on industry best practices
• Within a time frame that is acceptable to you
• Repeatable as often as you desire
