Supporting the consolidation of IT entities

The Mission at a Glance

The Company

A regional banking network

The Context of the Project

A banking network launched a program to consolidate its information systems and centralize its IT operations. The project required establishing a unified organizational structure, coordinating numerous stakeholders, and ensuring service continuity throughout the transition.

The Challenge

IT operations spread across multiple units that needed to be consolidated into a single organization.

Our Approach

The Process, Step by Step

01

Defining the Target Operational Model

PALMER contributed to the design of the information system management model throughout its entire lifecycle.

The work focused on processes, roles, and core functions. It also defined the structures, entities, and organizational charts required for the new organization.

02

Documenting Responsibilities and the Organizational Structure

The detailed design included job descriptions, competencies, and the location of activities.

The goal was to align the target structure with the resources needed to make it function. A common framework of macro-processes supported this alignment across the various teams.

03

Mapping Out the Transition Phases

The organizational roadmap defined the intermediate steps and the procedures for allocating resources during the transformation.

It also incorporated the process for assigning employees to target positions. The goal was to organize the transition to the common model while maintaining the operation of existing activities.

04

Supporting Change on the Ground

PALMER supported organizational changes, the implementation of processes and tools, and the management of organizational performance.

Coordination with business teams, IT, and network stakeholders supported communication and ensured that human considerations were taken into account.
