Challenges

The company selected a “best in class” IT service management (ITSM) solution for its business operations.

Client's Needs

Approach

The SYNOVAS consultants joined the company's team and performed a non-intrusive assessment of the chosen solution, implementation strategy and implementation vendor.

Based on this assessment, the SYNOVAS team worked with the CIO office to embed a Program Office methodology geared towards day-to-day operational control. The program office project managers provided daily oversight of a portfolio of projects and the implementation vendor.

Together with the company’s business units, CIO, and President, SYNOVAS consultants developed integrative implementation processes and  detailed action plans that were executed over an 11-month period.
