Besides the small introduction, subscribers and consulting clients within this management domain have access to:
Assess the current situation by identifying technology service consumers in the organization, their interfaces with IT, the level of service they require, and their sentiment toward IT.
Categorize the technology consumer groups into four business profiles based on their characteristics to identify implications based on technology consumption patterns for the target IT operating model.
Select implementation models for the four core elements of the IT operating model and optimize governance, sourcing, process, and organizational structure to create the target IT operating model.
Create, assess, and prioritize initiatives to reach the target IT operating model. Construct a roadmap to show initiative execution.
Workshops offer an easy way to accelerate your project. If you are unable to do the project yourself, and a Guided Implementation isn't enough, we offer low-cost delivery of our project workshops. We take you through every phase of your project and ensure that you have a roadmap in place to complete your project successfully.
