Scyllogis’ Role:
Scyllogis were engaged as lead consultants on a programme designed to deliver the above objectives. Although the programme comprised ACE staff from around the world, as well as other consultancies and software vendors, Scyllogis were wholly responsible for ensuring delivery of core programme elements and designed the global data model that would provide the required level of management information.
Why Scyllogis?
Scyllogis were chosen for the project because we were able to:
• Provide consultants who had a proven track record of multi-national projects that necessitated building relationships with culturally diverse people
• Demonstrate previous success in delivering projects that involved enterprise-wide complex change
• Architect innovative solutions and ‘sell’ these ideas to a sometimes skeptical business
• Work with ACE in a ‘hands-on’ fashion to deliver results
How Scyllogis Delivered Tangible Value:
Scyllogis’ operational style created an inclusive environment where different nationalities and personalities came together to jointly solve problems. Within this atmosphere we were able to gain consensus from the business. Results provided included:
• Development of an ‘enterprise model’ comprising processes, systems and data definitions that were signed off by the global stakeholders meting the client objectives defined above, providing a solution that all felt they ‘owned’
• A feasibility study and project plan for the pilot implementation in Canada
• A feasibility study and project plan for the next two implementations in Ireland and UK
• Knowledge transfer to ACE staff in order to allow them to continue roll-out of the ‘enterprise model’
