Planning

• Planning service: Yes
• How the planning service works: Moving to a Cloud SaaS solution provides a perfect opportunity to re-calibrate and re-engineer your business processes and a Cloud Readiness Assessment will enable you to determine how and when you can take the first steps on your Cloud journey. ; Namos will work with you to assess the feasibility of Oracle’s Cloud Offerings. The objective is to move at a pace you are comfortable with and discuss any areas you are unclear about or need further clarification. ; ; Oracle Cloud provide a modular approach allowing organisations to select individual Pillars, or the Suite in its entirety. Oracle Cloud's multiple deployment options provide flexibility to tailor the solution to your needs. This flexibility allows customers to adopt a “big bang” or phased implementation approach depending on business and/or operational readiness or complexity. ; ; We can engage with your organisation at any level, just for advice through to larger engagements such as Scoping Studies, System Reviews, Planning and Future Road Mapping. Our team are experts in Programme and Project Management and have significant years of Oracle experience across a variety of sectors.
• Planning service works with specific services: Yes
• Hosting or software services the planning service works with:
  • Oracle SaaS
  • Oracle PaaS
  • Oracle IaaS

Training

• Training service provided: Yes
• How the training service works: Namos’ partnership approach to training aims to equip your team with the skills to confidently be able to use Oracle Cloud day-to-day and support their colleagues so that you can build your in-house capability and confidence with the system and implement new ways of working. ; As part of the project, we work WITH the customer to provide their Cloud solution, not just do it to them. In this way the customer is involved in all phases and has a better understanding of their system, how it is designed, configured and used. This process of Knowledge Transfer starts right at the beginning of the project between Namos and customer team members and continues throughout (from simple concepts to complex processes). The customer is then able to be relatively self-sufficient when supporting any issues post go-live, if they want to be, or at the very minimum have champions or superusers in the organisation for future planning and solution improvements.; ; Training of the testers and end users can be carried out in a variety of styles, including webinars, hands-on classroom sessions, or one to one depending on the number of trainees and the complexity of the module or area of learning.
• Training is tied to specific services: Yes
• Services the training service works with:
  • Oracle SaaS
  • Oracle PaaS

Setup and migration

• Setup or migration service available: Yes
• How the setup or migration service works: We don’t underestimate the importance of Data Migration, as a process it should not be completely automated. A clearly defined, tried and tested method will be undertaken in moving from the legacy systems to the Oracle Cloud solution, and that method comes down to applying the skills of highly knowledgeable and committed people. ; There are two implicit principles: ; No one knows the data as well as the people who use it. All hands-on data tasks (i.e. Cleansing) will be completed by the customer. The fewer data objects migrated, the smaller the risk. Therefore, we migrate only that data necessary to operate the system from day one. ; Namos recommend a minimum of three rounds of data migration is completed, these will be at various phases of the project lifecycle and provide the opportunity to ensure the data is well cleansed and final timings recorded prior to production cutover. ; We use a Namos built UI based application to pre-validate the data before it is loaded into Oracle Cloud. In this way the data is known to be clean and will reduce the errors when the data is loaded. The application provides a dashboard that provides overall progress of each business object.
• Setup or migration service is for specific cloud services: Yes
• List of supported services:
  • Oracle SaaS
  • Oracle PaaS
  • Oracle IaaS

Quality assurance and performance testing

• Quality assurance and performance testing service: Yes
• How the quality assurance and performance testing works: To adhere to the pre-agreed quality and acceptance gates for deliverables, we run internal Stage Gate reviews at each major milestone to ensure overall project quality, as well as specific functional and project quality. These meetings attended by senior Namos stakeholders for overall oversight on project methodology and Practice Directors for each pillar, bring the most senior experience directly into the review. ; All projects are part of a weekly status check with senior Namos stakeholders to ensure their status and progression. These reviews offer the opportunity for overall project quality reviews and checks on functional and delivery quality. Conducting these checks on this frequent basis ensures quality is maintained throughout by calling out and addressing concerns. ; The Namos ethos is not based around change requests and scope (payment) creep, Namos’ domain expertise and experience reduces risk of underestimating from the outset. We’ll work with the customer to agree final scope and project costs, creating a common understanding and partnership approach that is fostered and developed throughout. ; Changes to the solution footprint, approach, deliverables and or scope may be encountered. Where identified these are managed via the agreed change control process ensuring time and cost impacts are fully agreed before progressing.

  Fighting climate change

  Across the UK, the devolved Nations take a different approach for their Net Zero commitments, with varying targets between 2030 and 2050. In addition, individual public sector bodies have responsibility for their own emissions, setting their own target dates. Namos has set a target of achieving Net Zero emissions by 2030, meaning no negative impact to cross Government targets of becoming net‑zero, whatever the target required. ; In meeting the 2030 targets Namos have set a science-based target (SBTi) to reduce emissions according to defined criteria, verified by Net Zero Now. The “Net Zero” Registered Certification Mark recognises that Namos is working towards neutralising its climate impact in line with all relevant environmental legislation, regulation, and significantly best practice imposed Protocols and global standards. ; Namos aim is to maintain/ reduce its Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions by at least 30% over the next 5 years. To continue its progress toward achieving Net Zero, Namos has adopted the following carbon reduction targets established by the Net Zero certification, reducing its Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 15% by 2025, and Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions by 30% over the next 5 years. This decrease will see Namos’ emissions drop from 175.60 tCO2e to 122.90 tCO2e by 2027. ; Circa 20% of Namos’ footprint is related to business travel and employees are already encouraged to travel by public transport, preventing and minimising avoidable emissions. Namos work with its customers in developing their preferred operating and delivery model, for example implementing a hybrid onshore delivery approach, with a mixture of face to face at key stages of projects and then remote working. Namos will agree with customers a project approach reflecting both the customer’s own, and Namos’ commitments to internal and external emission targets while not compromising on service delivery excellence.

  Covid-19 recovery

  Even before the pandemic, a distributed workforce was becoming more common, with the deployment of new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) tooling integrated into business structures enabling remote working, facilitating communication, promoting productivity, and ensuring improved data safety and collaboration. Namos’ service provision, focussed solely on the deployment of, and providing ongoing Managed Services for Oracle Fusion Cloud supports this approach. In helping customers with their Oracle service requirements Namos helps customers to continue improving their workplace conditions post COVID-19 enabling them to deliver effective social distancing when required, to work remotely safely and securely, and help deliver a reduction in travel requirements to meet sustainable targets.; Namos Public Sector customers range across Local Government, Central Government, Blue Light and Higher Education, and this has helped Namos develop a deep understanding of the challenges that Public Sector organisations face in moving from outdated legacy systems that prevent effective management of services, communication and efficient collaboration, to modernised, SaaS cloud solutions that transform ways of working.; Often met with, and encountering a reluctance for change, Namos’ consultants understand that with people at the heart of any organisation, the key to a successful project is ensuring that employees are on board and are driven towards achieving the same goals.

We recognise that plugging individual schemes and initiatives into a customer’s own wider strategy can multiply the benefits that can be achieved by delivering social benefit on individual schemes. Where successfully awarded contracts Namos is happy to tailor its current social performance activities or explore a customer’s own ideas that maybe more relevant to a customer’s direct community, or available and relevant jobs and skills development opportunities, for example, Namos’ Women in Tech group have worked with local schools to attend career days and workshops to encourage more young girls to take STEM subjects at school.; The below provides examples of Namos’ commitments in areas related economic growth, closing the digital skills gap, and promoting prevention of employment challenges within the disadvantaged across society: ; Signing the Armed Forces Covenant and Defence Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS) Bronze Award; Foundation of the Namos Veterans Recruitment Program ; Bi-annual collaboration with the Career Transition Partnership ; Sponsorship and attendance at WiT Excellence Awards; Signed the Tech Talent Charter, driving greater diversity and inclusion in technology roles ; Hire STEM Women certification.
