Global Simplicity Index

The Global Simplicity Index 2011 is the first ever study to calculate the cost of complexity in the world's largest organisations.[1][2] The research was conducted jointly by management consultancy, Simplicity, and Warwick Business School. The Global Simplicity Index has identified that the world's largest companies lose an average of 10.2% of their profits (EBITDA) as a result of unnecessary complexity.[3]

The Global Simplicity Index has identified that complexity occurs in five key areas of an organisation: people, processes, organisational design, strategy, and products and services.[4]
