Digital transformation service

Our Digital Transformation services are focusing on the orchestration and execution of 3 pillars:

.value: Invest in initiatives that have clear purpose and contribution to the company values and Key Performance Indicators. Define with our broad knowledge a value meter that makes it easy to prioritise your initiatives and develop with us together technology roadmaps based on your and our knowledge.

.excellence: Ensure that you are bringing teams together that develop a product mindset, collaborate with each other in an excellent way and which are highly skilled in processes and technology. We can help you to define the value streams, products as well as driving excellence within your company by establishing executable operating models that allows the balance between standards and individualism.

.scalable: To achieve scalability you need to build a foundation that does not create any headache. This can be done by establishing platforms where products are being developed on based on consumption of services. Infrastructure is modernized in the cloud and data is being seamlessly integrated with the right governance in place. We can support you in defining the platform, establishing total cost of ownership, driving the migration to the cloud and orchestrate the automation of infrastructure provisioning and services. We can also support you to get organized around data.

Our goal is not to perform all the activities,  it is more the orchestration and oversight of the activities. Our aim is to use the resources you have and bring them together in the most efficient way. This includes internal and external resources you might have. We are ensuring a safe environment where your people are being empowered to autonomously run rewarding initiatives, we are breaking silos and fostering collaboration because of our system thinking and we are able to deploy scalability through our immense knowledge of balances between local/ global, standard/ individualism and our perseverance of doing the right thing.

Transform Your IT Organization: Achieving Success in the Digital Era

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, businesses face the dual challenge of cost pressures and increasing demand for innovative digital solutions. Is your company struggling to keep up? We understand the urgency to stay ahead and thrive in the digital age.

That’s why the company initiated a groundbreaking program to address these challenges head-on. The program focused on reducing costs, migrating applications to the cloud, and eliminating on-premise data centers. But they didn’t stop there. They also secured funds to consolidate data assets into a single, streamlined source, ushering in new ways of working and defining innovative digital products.

However, after eight months, the company encountered roadblocks. Discussions, blame games, and frustrations were hindering progress. A to big proportion of the funds were already wasted. Recognizing the need for a change in program leadership, the company brought us in as esteemed experts in driving transformative outcomes.

Under our expert’s guidance, we ushered in a collaborative work environment where everyone rallied behind a shared vision and felt empowered to execute autonomously. With exceptional leadership skills, we built trust among stakeholders, fostering a culture of can-do attitudes and open communication. Efficiency skyrocketed as we worked together to define and achieve our common goals.

By putting people at the heart of our strategy and building trust among our team, we surpassed expectations and propelled our success to new heights.

Our secret? Clear goal-setting, genuine care for people, and doing what’s right, not just what’s easy. By establishing risk-sharing, outcomes-based contracts with our valued vendors, commitment was bolstered. Constant connections were maintained with stakeholders to ensure seamless collaboration and consistency. Our servant leadership approach inspired the company to go above and beyond.

The results were astounding. Our program successfully migrated hundreds of applications to the cloud, closed nine data centers, and deployed cutting-edge digital products. We revolutionized the ways we work by internalizing critical capabilities, while consolidating commercial data sets into a single, reliable source.

The best part? We achieved all this in an accelerated timeline and below budget. By putting people at the heart of our strategy and building trust among our team, we surpassed expectations and propelled our success to new heights.
