IT Business Continuity Planning
As businesses struggle to align their IT processes to the business initiatives, business continuity planning has risen to the top of key initiatives. However, to really tackle this imperative, it is key to do the upfront due diligence and understand the interdependencies across the organization, always keeping human interactions front and center.
Recent Use Case: OneNeck’s Advisory Consulting team recently worked with a global satellite provider who was undergoing a substantial reorganization that involved moving a large amount of enterprise hardware and applications from one environment into another.
This consolidation had to be done methodically, which required intense up-front planning. The plan meant that a documented understanding of who was using what application and what they used it for was key. From this interdependency mapping, the team was able to identify the stakeholders, the impact their role played in the business process and prioritize the migration of each application.
The end result of this engagement was a customized migration strategy that this large organization used to consolidate their environment which, in turn, saved them money and improved their internal processes.
