The scope of the project is to define the business vision, prepare and implement the transformation roadmap and to set up an IT framework & operating model to support roadmap implementation.

All of the meetings and exchanges described above shall take place exclusively in the presence of a central contact person named, who shall coordinate the project on our internal side. The organisation and scheduling of the meetings described above in which the consultant is involved shall be organised and carried out by the consultant and coordinated.
Background to this project: Market volatility challenges companies and requires more flexibility and capability of quick adaptation to rapidly changing environments and market requirements. Furthermore, there are a significant number of business developed applications, processes and data to be assessed and transformed into more efficient, flexible and robust solutions. Expected change exceeds current delivery structure, current organizational set-up as well as available capacity and skills. The Project will have three ‘products’ which do influence each other:
