In the rapidly evolving world of technology, understanding your current IT landscape is crucial for future success. Discover is the first phase of our three-part methodology and provides a comprehensive assessment of your existing systems, processes, infrastructure and organisation. It reveals opportunities for optimisation and innovation across the Microsoft ecosystem. And it will help shape any digital transformation cost-benefit analysis by highlighting the investment required.
Why do you need the Discover phase?
Comprehensive Analysis
We leave no stone unturned. Our experts conduct a detailed examination of your objectives, challenges, IT infrastructure, software applications, data management practices and security protocols, ensuring a holistic understanding of your environment.
Tailored Recommendations
Every digital transformation is unique. The findings of the Discover phase are translated into bespoke plans and actionable recommendations. These are aligned with your business objectives and resources to ensure that your transformation process is a success.
Risk Mitigation
We identify potential risks before they become issues. Our assessment highlights vulnerabilities and compliance gaps, making sure we actively address them to safeguard your operations.
Detailed Planning
Ultimately, the Discover phase lays the groundwork for a successful digital transformation. Our process creates a robust implantation plan, ensuring that the next phase, Deliver, is built on a solid, well-understood foundation.
How do we carry out the Discover phase?
Initial Consultation
We begin with an in-depth workshop led by one of our directors. Its aim is to understand your organisation’s goals, challenges and current technology landscape.
Data Collection and Analysis
Our team gathers the data we need to create an implementation plan using a mix of methods. These might include interviews, further workshops and audits of your infrastructure, applications, data management, security protocols and KPIs. We analyse this information to map out your IT ecosystem, to identify the right Microsoft technology for you and to create a robust action plan.
Reporting and Planning
Our findings are compiled into a detailed report, highlighting key insights and providing strategic recommendations. We present this to your team, ensuring clarity and understanding. Based on your feedback, we then develop a customised action plan. The plan not only presents your complete implementation, but also addresses identified issues and leverages opportunities for improvement.
A Practical Option
You can commission us for your entire project, or you can try out our services using our Fixed Price Discovery service. This specific service provides you with the benefits and the output of the Discover phase, without committing to a full project with us.
