Our Methodology
for Digital Strategy and Planning
The process starts with an assessment of your current issues. It then builds as-is and to-be business models and a roadmap of different changes to people, processes, and technology that will be required to enable the digital vision.
1 Assessment
Through primary and secondary research, this assessment digs into each of your datasets, transactions, and processes to develop as-is and to-be states, as well as several potential solutions and priorities that need to be explored further.
3 Solution Prioritization
This step performs the technical analysis given the existing or new technologies required in the architecture. As well as considering the state of existing master data. This step also helps with the prioritization of different options.
5Business Case Development
This step focuses on the benefits each stakeholder and team will receive because of the initiative. This step quantifies the KPIs and helps implementation teams track the progress over time during and post-implementation to measure effectiveness.
2Discovery Workshops
Once the team agrees with the desired option for the to-be state, a detailed analysis is performed to remove any financial risks with the potential option. As well as to assess the financial feasibility of the plan.
4Implementation Roadmap
This step helps with the implementation roadmap, including how to staff internal teams, how to engage with vendors and where to take help from them, and how to build a roadmap that is realistic and reasonable.
