Actions & Response

Veran was asked to

​

1. Create a compelling business case that stakeholders would all agree to

2. Create a road-map for deploying the Sage People solution across Sage globally

​

Veran worked with Sage to create a fully costed, bottom-up business case and plan for deployment globally.  This was requested by the leadership team to independently verify the investment and achieve agreement to the budget so that their global transformation partner could undertake business and back-office transformation.  The business case and plan was required in a 6 week accelerated period and included all aspects of transformation including new business organisation, HR support design and technology deployment.

 

Deliverables: Fully-costed business case built and signed-off.

​

Key Outcomes 
 

• Delivery of a fully-costed business case, with 5 year investment and benefit profile in 6 weeks.

  Engagement from IT (Group and local) to gather the existing IT landscape data and costs and agree future state costs and integration requirements, as well as savings from retirement of legacy systems.
