Is your organization prepared for
the Cloud? You have less time to get ready than you think you do.
Technology is changing in the
area of cloud versus on-premises and mobile computing. With mobile applications running through the
conventional design – build – test – deploy process in days and weeks instead
of months and years, often times technology is not the “long pole in the tent.”
We can help you ready your organization in advance of technology deployment,
allow your employees greater engagement by trying new things, and preparing for
new ways of doing business in the
cloud.
Cloud Operations Readiness
Our service offering covers a
number of preparation areas, from the organizational to the technical. We are pleased also to work with the
following partners in the development of technical solutions and architectures
for cloud and mobile computing.
Our firm is recognized as an SAP
Influence Partner across many program areas including Sustainability, 2-tier
Computing, EPM and GRC services.
As members of the Microsoft
Partner Network in the area of Strategy, we work with clients to develop
approaches leveraging cloud computing, predictive analytics, and mobile
technology strategies.
E-policies
Many companies are ill-prepared
for the move to Cloud platforms, including use of something as seemingly benign
as social media or social business tools.
Having sound E-policies in place will set the proper expectations with
your employees and management teams. We
can develop and review existing employee handbooks to include the appropriate
coverage for cloud and mobile computing environments.
Executive Effectiveness
Recent studies have shown that an
incremental increase in a system transformation program budget can increase
program funding chances by over 50%.
Beyond the “cool factor” that mobile computing brings is also the opportunity
to enable greater capabilities for on-the-go executives through tablet and
mobile phone applications. Simply
rendered and highly effective, these scenarios can be used in budgeting,
forecasting, reporting, and strategic planning.
Employee Engagement / BYOD
Mobile technologies offer a
chance to engage employees in a common platform and user experience. Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programs can
create excitement and even gamification of certain otherwise mundane work
tasks. We can also advise how to
properly create an “app store” for your organization and how to “push and pull”
sensitive apps to and from employee devices.
User Experience (UX) and
Gamification Solutions
Business applications function
differently on a mobile platform.
Considerations for User Experience (UX) and Gamification – important for
Millennial Workers – are critical success factors. We work with a number of SAP and Microsoft
related solutions including Duet Enterprise, SAP Social, and Microsoft
interfaces such as SharePoint to create the most engaging employee and customer
user experience possible given the resources and business practices of the
organization.
2-Tier Subsidiary Design
Whether it is the result of a
merger or planned divestiture, using cloud computing templates in a hybrid or
so-called “2-tier” computing environment can save time, effort and money. We also look at the lease vs buy and security
trade-offs to working with plants, subsidiaries and other facilities throughout
the greater enterprise and the supply chain.
