Enterprise Strategy & Transformation Innovation Center

Guiding diverse perspectives to envision, execute, and transform together.

Successful transformation of an enterprise* requires meaningful engagement of people from across that enterprise supported by a strong culture, working collaboratively toward a clear, compelling direction. MITRE’s Enterprise Strategy and Transformation (ES&T) Innovation Center helps identify and develop the right people, build consensus around their collective intentions, and nurture a culture of trust while showing them how to better understand their operations, design their future enterprise and roadmap to get there, and measure their progress toward their goals.

* Enterprises are collectives of individuals, communities, and/or organizations with interdependent interests who are catalyzed toward a common purpose or outcome and enabled by processes, information, technology, and infrastructure.

We help you build your capacity to make evidence-based decisions on your investments and operational performance—all based on reliable data, insightful performance measures, and transparent governance processes that build shared outcomes across diverse stakeholders.

Business Innovation and Process Design

We work at the intersection of business strategy and execution. We use business engineering methods and analytics to help create new capacity in response to emerging mission demands.

We employ time-tested process analysis and design methods, such as Lean Six Sigma, and support forward leaning approaches in intelligent process automation to deliver measurable performance improvement.

Organization Change & Agility, Stakeholder Communication, and Workforce Strategy

Our organization change and agility specialists assess the change readiness and current agility levels of the key stakeholder groups within and outside your organization, e.g., leadership, customers, partners, employees, then work with you to design, develop, and implement change plans tailored to the needs of the enterprise. Our specialists use stakeholder engagement and communication to create and sustain strong relationships across stakeholders, to build coalitions and to encourage collaboration within and outside your organization to enable you to better meet your mission. Our workforce strategists help you better understand your current talent pool and design your development plans with evidence and insights. Our methods build upon current research in behavioral science and social neuroscience.

Enterprise Transition Planning, Architecture, and Shared Services

We help you convert your strategic priorities into a blueprint for planning and implementing changes in enterprise systems.

Our transition planning specialists help guide your decisions on projects, investments, and timelines as you modernize systems or migrate to a shared services model.

We can develop strategies for convening and implementing new collaboratives among government, industry, academia, and other organizations to develop whole-of-nation solutions based on trust and designed to achieve innovative results and sustainable impact. Our methods are practical, grounded in research, and can accelerate the right business, funding, governance, and engagement models.
