Major European Universal Bank leverages a maturity assessment to support a new successful delivery approach.
The problem
The organisation was implementing a large Finance change initiative. The programme was dependent on delivering key benefits around a single Finance Ledger. The reporting solutions driven from the initiative would be able to provide insights around customer and profitability which would help transform the organisation. Historically they had numerous failed initiatives and wanted Kinaesis to provide input on the strategy to achieve success.
How we helped
Kinaesis reviewed the existing set up of the organisation, looking at past projects, and working closely with internal IT, business and change management stakeholders. We assessed the capabilities from this work and wrote up a detailed and thorough report explaining why the existing projects had not achieved the success that they had hoped for and the key changes required to set up future projects for success.
Key Victories
The stakeholders were surprised at the suggestions in the report. They covered areas that they had not considered to be factors in the success of the existing projects. It enabled them to see the project process from a completely different angle, leading to changes in project approach. This approach then led to successful delivery of the future projects.
