An energy client needed to improve its IT team’s capabilities to address the complex challenges facing the electric system in their region. These improvements targeted the organization’s digital planning, designing, and delivery practices.

- Evaluated alignment with the desired digital planning and overall strategic planning process
- Defined a planning process that considered long-term needs, near-term improvements, and technology risks
- Defined the product management, engineering, and architecture roles and responsibilities necessary to support the process
- Developed the supporting product-based outcome metrics and product risk indicators to support plan decision-making and the corresponding product performance management and oversight
Result
- Designed a target operating model allowing cross-functional teams to execute, monitor, and ensure the achievement of strategic objectives
- Aligned and informed internal teams on their changing roles and responsibilities
- Instrumented their portfolios in a way that allows them to use data to make decisions about long-term and near-term needs, technical debt, digital strategies, etc.
