Planning
- Planning service
- Yes
- How the planning service works
-
Our team collaborates with clients to formulate and execute business intelligence, data warehouse, data and analytics strategies. We establish an adoption framework that fosters a data-driven culture and expedites the adoption process. Our approach to planning involves five key stages:
1) Engage: We initiate dialogue with key stakeholders to identify their primary demands and objectives. This ensures that our solutions align with their business goals. 2) Gather: We collect requirements from various business units and IT departments. This comprehensive requirement gathering allows us to understand the diverse needs of the organisation. 3) Evaluate: We assess the gathered requirements for potential quick wins and high-value deliveries. This evaluation helps prioritise tasks based on their impact and feasibility. 4) Define: We outline the delivery approach and create roadmaps. These roadmaps provide a clear path forward and set expectations about the delivery timeline. 5) Replay: We review and replay the content in a collaborative manner. This step ensures that the proposed solution meets the expectations of all stakeholders and allows for any necessary adjustments. Through this approach, we assist buyers in planning and implementing cloud hosting or software services that are tailored to their specific needs and objectives. - Planning service works with specific services
