TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY
Introduction
One of the ways to accelerate digital transformation is through a realistic technology strategy. As technology evolves, enterprises need to refresh their strategies and establish a technology centre of excellence. At the Kayndrex Foundation we co-create a technology centre of excellence for our stakeholders. We create a high ROI implementation plan with a multi-parameter-based prioritisation approach and provide the necessary support to create a centre of excellence.
A Technology Centre of Excellence at the core
At the core of the strategy rests the study of objectives and success criteria – defining the metrics, measuring the value realised, identifying the right candidates for technology, and creating compelling organisational state of affairs. .
Governance Structure
A good governance structure is focused on ensuring sponsorship, defining roles and responsibilities, establishing a clear roadmap to scale depending on the technology goals, and creating a change management process at an organisational level.
Operating Model
Depending on the firm size and setup, there are varying types of operating models including centralised and blended models. The technology strategy assists define the right operating model for the Kayndrex Foundation.
People Skills
It is important to build the core technology team with the right skillsets, set up project management teams, have functional support, technology stakeholder ownership, and identify subcontracting requirements and setup.
Process Management Skills
Key activities include opportunity identification and prioritisation, technology development and support, creating design methodologies for the optimum build based on best operating standards, templates and guidelines, and setting up managed facilities.
Technology
At the Kayndrex Foundation, it is imperative to select the right technologies that suit the varying organisational needs and processes. Process discovery technologies are a great way to determine the scope of technology required for the Kayndrex Foundation. These technologies assist to capture the processes as they stand with no bias, then determine the technology strategy that functions best for the Foundation. This lowers the commercialisation time and dependencies on firms for process evaluation.
