3-Cubed

GCC Heads

Building a GCC means making decisions before you have the baseline.

3-Cubed gives you the model before the operation exists. 15–20 design configurations evaluated before go-live.

You're designing team size, location, shift structure, and control architecture without historical performance data from the parent entity. Every decision rests on assumptions.

THE CHALLENGE

Assumptions compound. Errors show up six months after go-live.

3-Cubed builds the model from parent process documentation and volume estimates — and runs scenarios before you commit the design. The cost of getting this wrong is measured in quarters, not weeks.

Where It Shows Up

  • Team size and structure decided without performance baseline
  • Control architecture designed without knowing what the controls cost
  • Location and shift decisions based on estimates, not modelled consequences
  • SLA commitments made before the operation can validate them

How 3-Cubed Addresses It

Model the operation before it exists.

No live data required

Decision Twin built from parent process documentation and volume estimates. Works at design stage — before the GCC is operational.

15–20 configurations evaluated

Team size, location, shift structure, control architecture — each configuration with full cost, control, and SLA consequences.

Compliance-ready control architecture

Identifies the control design that meets compliance requirements without over-engineering — and without the cost of finding out after go-live.

Committed to the right design

Go-live with a modelled baseline. Performance deviation visible immediately — against a computed target, not a spreadsheet estimate.
