IT TRANSFORMATION
Transforming technology to keep up with growth
A global enterprise, our client's business advisory services include corporate training, consulting and facilitating leadership and operations excellence for their clients' respective industries.
​
They faced the following challenges:
Its business was experiencing significant growth
The deployed internal technology was struggling to keep up with business demands
They viewed technology as a cost centre with investment fragmented across the globe
They have a strong relationship with their internal clients on many aspects of operations, but seek technology advice, products and services from others
To support them, EDIS Insights implemented our four-stage methodology. During the Enlighten phase we built a detailed understanding of the current state through technical analysis and deep engagement with key stakeholders. We moved to Design, building out a blueprint for the future with a clear strategy and practical projects that formed the foundation of the future technology-enabled business. As part of Design, we delivered a comprehensive business case with costed projects and high-level timelines. The business case was ratified by the global Board for implementation. EDIS Insights has now been retained to lead the Implement phase of the plan.
As an ongoing program of work, EDIS is assisting our client to deliver the strategy. Within the first horizon we are leading the delivery of:
An Enterprise Architecture
Global alignment on standards and methods
Consolidation of IT Service Operations globally
Formation of a Global Software Development capability, implementing new development patterns, reducing the time to value delivery for new ideas
Coordination and rationalisation of technology purchasing activity
Future ambitions of the strategy will see our client delivering new levels of value to its client base. Robust, scalable technology will provide a strong foundation for improving revenue, reducing costs and ultimately delivering higher enterprise value.
