Methodology

How we decide where to invest in technology.

A framework built on capabilities, proven in real projects that optimize technology investment.

Framework built on capabilities

It separates what you need to strengthen from what you only need to keep running.

01

Mandate

The starting point that guides everything else.

02

Strategic imperatives

The priorities that follow from the mandate.

03

Strategy and capabilities

We identify the critical and differentiating capabilities, and decide how to compete.

04

Operating model and execution

Structure, processes and systems to execute the strategy.

05

Culture

The foundation that sustains execution.

Three categories: invest, match or compress, depending on the value of each line of spend.

Invest Differentiating capabilities Reinforced and funded by the improvements in the cost structure.
Match Table stakes Brought in line with the industry benchmark, without affecting service levels.
Compress Keep Lights On Price benchmarked aggressively, with the spend optimized.

15%

In our experience, this is where technology savings usually start to show, without affecting service levels.
