Business Transformation initiatives keep organisations growing, competitive and compliant. New processes, technologies and practices are essential for businesses to achieve efficiency, drive down costs and offer best value to customers.
X-CO’s Business Transformation resources are characterised by deep industry knowledge and direct experience of leading transformational change across organisations. Our skills in Risk Mitigation and Quality Assurance ensure the end product is fit for purpose.
Our transformational services include business case development, future state design, Target Operating Model definition and Change management through to Strategic state delivery, based on clear success criteria defined with our clients.
In the Digital Era, IT Transformation is essential to companies who want stay at the leading edge. However, replacing legacy systems and migrating to new IT architectures can be a painful experience without appropriate change management.
X-CO consultants have proven approaches to deliver large scale systems integration and data migration programmes whilst minimising business disruption. With a wide range of IT skills, including User Acceptance Testing techniques and familiarity with many Third-Party IT Systems & Applications, our people hit the ground running.
Consultancies often leave their clients’ projects after the main milestone has been delivered as it is not commercially viable for either party to continue the engagement once the immediate need has been satisfied. This is a ‘false economy’ for the client, as any knowledge and experience gaps left by an abrupt reduction in support will probably reduce the client’s ability to operate effectively and independently in the long term.
By contrast, it is part of X-CO’s core discipline to facilitate a smooth transition to ‘Business as Usual’ for its clients. We will help our clients to budget for a transition plan from the outset, and following completion of the main project deliverables, we will leave our resources in situ at preferable rates for as long as it takes to provide documentation, train and mentor client staff and support hiring of new resources as necessary.
X-CO also specialises in taking on project work left incomplete by other consultancies, driving them through to final state. X-CO has successfully untangled residual tasks from Big 4-led projects and transitioned them to BAU for Tier 1 banking clients.
