A principle tenet of the HHA approach is an operational model that recognizes that organizations are, at their core, a collection of people and capital investments (facilities and equipment) driven by a common purpose. The HHA approach is to leverage this fundamental organizational truism through direct engagement with a clients key personnel and then to develop capability-focused organizational and strategic models that clarify the relationships between an organizations key elements (skilled personnel, facilities, equipment and processes). Once the relationships between the key elements of capability are highlighted and understood, an organizations leaders can quickly assimilate this new understanding into performance criteria and metrics that can drive systemic improvements across and throughout the organization, highlight areas for productivity improvement initiatives, and/or identify human capital excesses or gaps that require new learning, hiring or other workforce shaping techniques to boost performance.
