Target Operating Model Definition
Defining the target organizational, IT & process designs based on the clients needs & wishes Define the organizational goals & milestones and determine the projects & approach necessary to achieve them Ensuring an optimal match between client requirements and vendor capabilities in the selection of systems and applications Based on experience and in-depth knowledge, we provide detailed analyses leading to lasting and realistic designs Managing thorough testing through various phases; always ensuring high business involvement Able to identify, understand and manage the complexities of (data) migrations Restructuring of troubled projects

Roadmap Setup
System Selection Analysis & Design Test Coordination Migration Project Rescue

From our experience we would like to share the following Lessons learned
Asset Manager
From our experience swift decision making on content related design discussions Typically a risk averse environment, resulting in longer test cycles In general less used to large change, explicit attention to change management is recommended Key man dependencies resulting into capacity issues for the line organization Formal sign off of functional and technical designs will limit deviations during subsequent phases Business driven change : operating model and business case should be the basis for change Finance processes will be the bottleneck and reporting should not be forgotten Follow the system, do not recreate the as-is in the new package

System implementations

Project Management

Dont predict the future : high level plan for business cases, limit detailed plan to the next 4 months Cherry pick the best team. A longer lead time will be rewarded Make sure the configurators at Murex or Calypso understand the functional designs. Validation workshops with SMEs and Config urators are a must have before the build starts

We thoroughly understand our clients business and leverage our knowledge and experience in the following areas

Analyse the current and preferred situation

We start with an analysis of the existing situation and the desired outcome. This results in future scenarios and business cases taking into account the risks, and impact on the current business.

Translation of strategy into approach

We translate analysis and strategic choices into a practical approach. In doing so, we ensure structure, measurability and planning.

Implementation, coordination and communication

Our involvement does not end with devising a solution. We also implement that solution: define requirements, detail process flows, set up a training and migration approach. We implement and manage projects and programmes to achieve the agreed result.

Safeguarding and improving

Following implementation, we monitor whether everything keeps running according to plan. With clever techniques, we ensure improved efficiency. At the same time, we reduce hidden costs.
