Cloud Operating Model

The challenge

The development and implementation of a successful cloud strategy for organisations can be complex and difficult to deliver:

• Difficult to scale beyond POCs or greenfield builds
• Difficult to upskill and enable staff
• Complex technologies and new ways of working
• Excessive focus on cost reduction without clear path for data centre exit
• Challenge of security in public cloud environments

We recognise that many organisations have begun or are even well on their way to completing their cloud journey. But even once you have migrated, there are a multitude of elements that require ongoing support, scrutiny, evolution and innovation. As with business strategy, cloud is not a one-off activity.

How we can help

Our Cloud Operating Model Assessment service is designed to help clients address these issues and a multitude of others, by providing a comprehensive and holistic review of all areas of your organisation and operating model in relation to cloud, with a view of providing a prioritised plan to address risks and opportunities.

We bring unique expertise, frameworks and methodologies, not to mention significant experience and a track record of successful delivery, that make this happen.

Ultimately, our service provides clients with guidance, support, expertise and capabilities that enable:

• The design, development and evolution of organisational cloud strategy
• A pragmatic and implementable plan to achieve that strategy
• Programmatic, technical and operational support to execute
• Guidance on the key components required to realise the benefits of cloud
