Our consulting offering

Strategy and Governance

Planning how to maximize the business value of technology

Strategy and governance are the cornerstones of professional Business Technology management. In the fast-paced digitalized world they matter more than ever. We help our clients to design and build technology management operations, organizations, and processes to create value for their business. We also understand that creating strategies is not enough. Success is about knowing how to execute strategies in practice and understanding how to link robust operations with new digital strategies. Leading digitalization – both people and technology - is the very core of our expertise.

Architecture and Emerging Technologies

Designing technology-enabled business capabilities

Business is technology. Digitalization is based on information technology and is challenging technology designers to become a proactive business partner. New concepts, ideas and technologies need to be identified, understood, evaluated and put into business context. This requires expert market knowledge, an agile approach to technology adoption and deep conceptual, technological and architectural knowledge, coupled with a strong understanding of business. Our experienced architects understand the full picture of a company’s technology landscape and are able to analyse which emerging technologies fit the needs and objectives. Sofigate’s approach to Enterprise Architecture is visual, quick, communicable, and business-centric.

Sourcing Management

Sourcing the best fit and safe services and solutions for the future

Digitalization is challenging traditional vendors and creating new opportunities for value creating ecosystems. Sourcing best fit business solutions and services has become more challenging and more critical than ever before. Sourcing is not only cost optimization, it is about business value maximization. Agile and business driven sourcing process is essential for ensuring successful and accurate technology implementation and deployment projects. Latest market knowledge speeds up the tender process and ensures best-fit services and contracts. Finding the best possible partners is the key element for creating new business. We help you to plan innovative business technology services and to find the right partners to implement them.

Running IT for Business

Running IT for business as a turn key solution

The number of skills and competences required for professional information technology management is not fully scalable with the size of the business. The required expertise level is not very scalable either – you cannot take business risks with non-professional experts in sourcing, architecture, security or project management to mention a few. We have all the expertise needed to run IT for the business. We can take full responsibility of all aspects of business-aligned IT leadership and run it as a service in close cooperation with your business leaders and under the command of the CFO or CEO of your company. Our strength lies in our practiced teams that can offer both continuity with dedicated people and scalability with on-demand use of our experts. The team is equipped with best practices and tools and is up and is running, with full strength, in few weeks.

Leading Change and Development

Leading change in programs and projects, and leading continuous development

Change is the steady state in the digitalized world. Becoming a frontrunner in the era of digital transformation demands perfectly orchestrated change and development management. We guide you through the business, information, process, technology and organizational changes necessary to successfully execute your strategies. Successful project management also requires discipline with project portfolio, agile practices, business steering and people engagement. We adopt the latest best practices, and lead the development with technology enabled agile decision making. We complement our project management best practices with tools such as Roundtable and CloudCouch. A competence pool of more than 250 effective and competent project management professionals is at your service.

Service Management

Managing and integrating services for better business experience

Service Management plays a key role in accelerating digitalization and enabling better services with high reliability, security and cost efficiency. Business is more reliable on information technology services than ever before. At the same time, the service development ecosystem is becoming more extensive and more complex every single day. Automation and robotics are making a huge difference in cost efficiency and quality. Sofigate is the forerunner in developing best practices and operations for Service Integration and Automation. On the other hand, we help our customers to shift their focus from incident driven operational service management to business-driven service design and development. We partner with the leading technology companies to enable service automation.

Business Automation

Implementing business automation solutions

Digitalization, as its best, creates new, innovative business models and processes. What it does every single day is simplification and automation of existing workflows and business processes. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Digital Workers are changing user and customer interfacing services, while Robotic Process Automation (RPA) releases humans from routine tasks to more creative business tasks. We have a long experience in driving efficiency through Business Service Automation and IT Service Management (ITSM) tools. We serve our customers with a 100 people Center of Excellence for Enterprise Service Management partnering with the globally leading technology companies ServiceNow, BMC Software and Apptio.

Academy

Building capabilities and mindset for continuous learning

The ongoing technological transformation requires constant renewal of knowledge, skills and abilities. Business Technology Academy combines the latest best practices, frameworks and models with insights and real-life case-exercises brought by experienced managers and experts. Various open and customer-specific training programs help to keep the employee competence level up-to-date with the requirements of a modern business technology organisation.
