Planning & Solutions

The cornerstone of transforming strategies and solution designs into deliverable and operational outcomes and systems is the domain of plan and deliver.

Organising a project or a program of work to integrate with existing capabilities and organisational processes is a challenge. When this is combined with complex technical activities and commercial constraints the requirements for competent and experienced professionals becomes critical.

Business Aspect provides a strong offering for the realisation of technology related projects. We develop and implement technology roadmaps, manage system integration and program complex applications. Our activities focus on delivering to business priorities and ensuring business value. Common plan and deliver outcomes for our clients include:

Program and Project Management

Planning the realisation of a single project or a program of projects through all of the stages from business case to operational commissioning. We possess the skills to undertake all of the management, business and technical aspects of the associated tasks. We manage and coordinate associated activities such as vendor management and organisational change.

We assist with project initiation definition to ensure that the various aspects such as scope, governance, risk management, report and communication are agreed and defined. Project schedules are produced to clearly define the work breakdown structure, task ownership, effort and duration together with dependencies. This then drives resource planning and project staffing.

Our processes are aligned with industry standards and we can deliver according to commercial methodologies, such as Prince2.

Technology Roadmap

Within the information technology and telecommunications sectors, technology platforms are rapidly evolving and have a strong mixture of industry standards and proprietary components. Thus an important aspect of effective long term solutions is a well defined effective roadmap that ensures current and future capabilities can integrate to deliver the required organisational outcomes. These roadmaps are generally unique for larger organisations due to their existing capabilities.

Business Aspect can provide the capabilities to define the roadmap and to manage the process of alignment of projects to this framework.

System Integration

The nature of business and government services is for the scope of the processes to become far more integrated and often to transition the organisational boundaries. This requires the systems that support particular aspects of the process to integrate to achieve a seamless solution. Achieving this integration while allowing for the rapid changes in services, products and processes and at the same time providing for new and emerging technologies is a challenge that when met provides substantial long term benefits and flexibility.

As leading practitioners Business Aspect provides the skills and experience to provide the solution design and implementation management.

Complex Application Development

The realisation and commissioning of application systems is generally a mixture of packages software, systems development, systems modification and systems integration. We provide services to select and implement packages and to manage the vendor during this process.

The development of complex applications requires strong capabilities in the areas of project management, technology skill and experienced developers. With the range of software packages that exist in the market, these development projects generally involve aspects of complex organisational processes and emerging technology. Meeting all of these challenges in a controlled and cost effective manner is a demonstrated capability within Business Aspect.
