International Management Decisions Library

We solve management problems related to sustainable development, managing
change, and streamlining your business through standard operating procedures

Any company can implement organizational changes independently without the need for expensive budgets when equipped with the appropriate “How to” instructions. The need for this information occurs in organizations of any size, especially in small to medium-sized businesses that sometimes cannot afford (or think it’s unnecessary) to use outside help. Today, there is a trend of searching for “boxed management solutions” that include detailed instructions for implementing organizational changes and company transformation in the form of standard operating procedures (SOPs)

Simultaneously, companies seek advisory support per their requests to implement these management solutions. Besides, we live in the digital world, which allows us to change the traditional face-to-face style of management consulting via different types of electronic communication and do it efficiently without sacrificing the quality of service. Based on the abovementioned trends, we created our International Management Decisions Library (IMDL). We do not provide theoretical management underpinnings but deliver practical managerial solutions and advisory support for their implementation. These solutions suit different cultures, industries, and companies of various sizes

What is a standard operating procedure?

Management processes of any company often correspond to the well-known saying: “The new is the well-forgotten old”; In most cases, business development follows several known scenarios, so no matter how unique your management problem may seem, there is a high probability that someone has encountered the same challenge once. Clearly, albeit with some adaptation to the country and/or corporate culture, a business solution does exist that will work for you

A standard operating procedure (SOP) is a set of instructions describing in detail and systematically how to perform a task or activity related to improving business performance. These detailed guidelines are easy to follow and leave no ambiguity about what to do and how to do it. The question is, where should you look for these SOPs? The answer is …

International Management Decisions Library

Our platform was created to help businesses of any size, industry, and level of development. The operational procedures collected in the library cover different management functions and can be used to solve management problems related to increasing business efficiency, scaling, and overcoming company crises

The Library contains standard operating procedures as a database of practical solutions from the best experts who have implemented these solutions in various organizations and know how to implement these solutions in different organizational and cultural environments. These are step-by-step algorithms for solving different management tasks

Management consulting has come a long way from sending a generalist to a client with vague guidance to providing niche specialists for a client’s specific request. Now, the consulting field is restructuring around networks (in the form of databases) of freelancers/specialists ready to respond to client requests on-site or via video conferences for an hourly fee. However, the consulting procedure can still look like a “black box” for many clients. The client evaluates the consultant based on indirect signals such as branding, prestige, specialization, previous experience, and reviews of the consultant by former clients. On our platform, we solve the customer problem of “buying a pig in a poke” or blind sale. For each SOP, we provide a detailed description, SOP structure, implementation outcome description, advisory support description, and preconditions for SOP implementation

Since the mid-70s, the average client has begun demanding assistance in implementing consulting recommendations. Today, networks of independent freelancers/implementers are ready to carry out niche implementation projects. Yet, we have taken this approach further to provide a one-stop solution on our platform for our customers. We not only match consultants to clients but also provide management solutions in the form of SOPs at a competitive price, along with the remote advisory support via Zoom conference necessary to ensure the successful implementation of these solutions. Thus, we strengthen the trust between the client and the consultant, who directly helps implement the purchased SOP

We constantly monitor our vendors by collecting feedback from our customers. This feedback targets the evaluation of SOPs’ quality and the evaluation of advisory support provided by our vendors who develop SOPs

Each procedure is designed to be implemented as a single intervention. However, several procedures can be implemented simultaneously to achieve a synergistic effect

Procedures are grouped by management functions. Each section of the Library contains a variety of procedures covering the management tasks of the corresponding function. The procedures included in the Library result from careful selection and reflect the best global practices in the relevant field. There are two types of SOPs: foundational, which are related to the everyday fulfillment of management functions, and advanced SOPs, which are targeted at company transformation

Any procedure is presented in the Library as a file or a group of files that contain a detailed, step-by-step set of specific actions that comprise the procedure

Purchasing a procedure means obtaining lifetime access to the corresponding file or group of files, which can be downloaded to the purchaser’s computer

Each procedure is presented in as much detail as possible, with guidelines for its implementation by the buyer. Purchasing a procedure guarantees you the opportunity to reserve time with a competent SOP Developer/Vendor to discuss the procedure and the specifics of its implementation

Welcome to the world of the future that has already arrived

Customer feedback

“Quick response to our requests and patience when working with those who do not immediately understand the implementation sequence.”

I started scaling my business and immediately realized that my company was not systematized. The Library has been a great help to me as an owner. When you feel pressured for growth and development costs become challenging to manage, using a library provides an opportunity to save time and money. I was especially surprised by the quality of advisory implementation support.

"Here, all the materials are presented step by step, with examples and templates."

There is a lot of material on the Internet about improving the human resource management system. There is often material on the “What” topic but slight or fragmentary material on the “How” topic. Here, all the materials are presented step by step, with examples and templates. For the first time, I encountered technical support for implementing management solutions. It is quite an unusual but exciting approach, and it works.

"I saw how self-sufficient my subordinates can be when introducing new management technologies."

At first, it was unusual. Instead of the expected consultant, there was a file with a step-by-step description of the implementation of the purchased management technology. I felt as if I had entered a home goods supermarket. After a while, top and middle management got used to such an unusual approach, and I saw how independent my subordinates were when introducing new management technologies.
