This leading technology company determined that its Enterprise Architecture capabilities were one of the keys to its future competitiveness. It was mandatory that their infrastructure be cost-effective, flexible, and able to facilitate rapid responses to market demands, yet the current structure hampered efforts to improve.
SOLUTION:
We worked in tandem with both technology and business executives to:
- Define the key strategic goals and requirements of the organization — aligned directly with corporate business goals
- Devise structural options which meet these requirements and assess these structural options for capability, manageability and feasibility
- Draft the primary activities, staffing model, and both leadership and individual roles and job descriptions needed for the organization to be successful
- Execute — implement the new organizational structure, roles, responsibilities and job descriptions; remove staff with skill-set mismatch, interview/hire new skill-sets (including a new CTO)
RESULT:
The new organization catalyzed substantial changes in the enterprise architecture enhance the company’s competitive position — including efforts to reduce costs and complexity as well as improve stability.
