• The Client could prepare for the changes ahead while minimising the risks involved
• IT service operating at optimum levels
• Increase confidence in the IT team
• Minimised risks of high-impact incidents

Summary
PTS reviewed the strategic roadmap, and TOM design principles were agreed to ensure alignment of the TOM with the Client’s values, culture and objective. PTS worked closely with the Client to agree on the breakdown of core capabilities between the in-house IT department, new services and preferred suppliers.
Once approved, the project team developed a view of the top tier management teams and functions and boundaries for the new services, identifying how to manage inter-dependencies. From the outline structure, PTS agreed on the teams, governance roles, related skills and competencies for each new role, providing a baseline required for the governance, strategy, change and operations under the TOM.
“PTS’ comprehensive approach has enabled us to understand and prepare for the changes ahead while minimising the risks involved, meaning that the organisation will soon benefit from an IT Service operating at optimum levels. This will in turn increase confidence in the IT team and minimise the risks of high-impact incidents, dramatically improving efficiency levels throughout the organisation.”
