Cloud Stratagem uses the Component Business Model (CBM) methodology to determine the best-fit products, Solution Architecture and overall IT Strategy for our clients’ company.
Cloud Stratagem carries out the following steps to create a Technology Plan for our clients:
Review the AS IS Systems and Procedures
We review the current projects to engage stakeholder interviews and balance against team brainstorms.
Component Business Model and Portfolio Heatmap Creation
We build Portfolio Maps of all systems in order to define the “Best of Breed” industry solution. By overlaying our priorities on top of the Portfolio Map, we create a Portfolio Heatmap showing the various projects and their level of priority. This gives our clients insight into specific projects priorities.
Solution and System Product Selection
We advise the best way to select between the options. We provide a methodology to make final system selections. We work closely with clients to determine the preferred solution and budget for each project.
An Enterprise Architecture
This is the conceptual blueprint that defines the structure of an organisation. The intent of an IT Roadmap and Strategy is to plot the enterprise architecture as it will develop and be funded over time. This demonstrates how an organisation will effectively achieve its future objectives through technology.
A Final Report – IT Strategy and Roadmap
The final report includes all solution decisions, vendor findings, recommendations, and budget planning requirements. The timeline shows implementation measured against the CBM heatmaps, the Business Continuity plan, the comparison of AS IS with TO BE, and the final Roadmap spanning five years.
