- How the planning service works
-
The service supports buyers in developing or assessing their ambitions and requirements (depending on what point their project has reached). In particular, it is important to understand the scale and nature of the transformation or change the buyer wants to achieve. An analysis is carried out to determine whether a cloud service approach is suitable and what benefits the client could expect to see.
Developments in the market and challenges associated with supplier performance mean that clients planning to adopt cloud services need to avoid getting ‘locked in’ to particular services in the long term. The service considers the whole lifecycle to mitigate risks throughout and ensure that the client's organisation remains agile in the future.
The service includes planning for both the service implementation itself and the achievement of the transformation required by the client organisation. Detailed consideration is provided to determine the best way to mitigate the risks of the transition to the new cloud service - Planning service works with specific services
