Architecture
A clear vision of an IT-architecture is essential to let IT-components work together and prevent siloed information architecture. To develop a clear architecture we take the following steps with our customers:
- Inventarisation of available IT-components
- Develop architecture options
- Develop rollout scenario’s
- Select an architecture option and roll-out scenario
Software selection
When the direction of your IT architecture is clear, one or more new solutions might be needed. During a software selection we help you to filter the noise of the market and make an informed decision in a structured and proven process.
- Requirements Analysis
- Research the market
- Determine the budget
- Engaging with the vendors
Implementation Management
Implementing an entirely new system or replacing an existing one is a challenging undertaking. Not only are the risks for project success very real; the biggest risks are in the disruption of the operation of your business. To manage these risks, you need a balanced team and clearly defined steps.
- Plan and Manage
- Prototype & Validate
- Change & Transit
- Deploy & Hyper Care
- Stabilize
Digital Adoption
For us, the end of the implementation/hyper care phase is not the end of our relationship. With success management, we are here to help your company to continually and increasingly receive value from your new landscape throughout the lifetime of the system. To help you achieve your desired outcome, we define four domains.
- Support
- Upgrades
- Optimization
- Extensions
