More and more companies are striving towards an increased focus on their core business process to cater for a financially stronger organization and company over time. The initial business process being outsourced was related to sub-processes far from strategic and tactical process. Today, every business process is in scope to be challenged based on value produced in comparison to cost levels and performance.

Within the outsourcing (contracted IT-services) area we have seen a dramatic increase in the market with clear trends where companies also partly or full outsource their IT-services. Examples are:
In the transformation it is important to ensure to have the right processes, tools, RACIE, job descriptions and templates to manage the internal as well as the external relationship.
In the transformation we ensure to train and educate all involved parties in the agreed ways of working, ensuring the use of the agreed processes, methods, tools, RACIE’s etc. It is important for us that our clients are self-sufficient once the transformation is completed and do not have to rely on us.
We believe that the best way of learning and implementing new ways of working are done through hands-on work. We guide, support and show our customers how the work should be done, and we repeat this in several different outsourcing waves.
As a benefit from driving this transformation will provide you as our client with a substantial amount of reduced costs and increased internal performance.
Driving change takes time and one should be prepared for a long-term change management agenda running over 12-36 months depending on the size of the organization in mind.
