M&A in financial Services

CLIENTS

Our client is a leading retail business with over 2,000 retail shops across the UK operating two major businesses under the same brand. To enable one of the businesses to be sold, the IT services and infrastructure needed to be separated. To complicate the project a previous cost-savings initiative had merged shared-service functions such as HR, Operations and IT Beyond were engaged to help design and deliver a IT system divestment for 18,000 users.

Scenario

The project had been in-flight for some time but the team needed assistance as the infrastructure project plan was difficult to track and there was nervousness from the technical staff whether the amount of technical change would be achievable given the amount of remaining time left on the project. The pressure of trying to deliver within the stated timescales was leading to uncertainty and talented staff were finding employment elsewhere.

Appraoch

Working with a strong programme manager, we collaborated with the technical staff to detail the effort required, resulting in a single project becoming a programme of over twenty separate but interrelated work streams. With an approved plan in place, crucially with engineer buy-in, we set off to deliver a new separate IT environment for the 4,000 users. The main challenges were providing shared-services to both "new" businesses, enabling co-exis-tence during the transition and keeping the lights on whilst making major change.

It was rewarding experience working with Beyond Migration and seeing the dedication and passion they bring. The solution was implemented successfully against challenging timescales which is a testament to the professionalism, expertise and investment shown in understanding the requirements and the brief from the client through to an effective and consistent implementation. The primary focus was on migration but with it there was also a significant amount of transformation which was a massive undertaking, but very much necessary for the business and out sourcing arrangement to achieve its full potential.

IT Programme Manager

IRIS has worked with Beyond for a number of years now, undertaking major technology transformations with great success and collaborative teamwork.

Group IT Director

I always found the team from Beyond to be a joy to work with and they were extremely diligent in what was a difficult and delicate situation for the organisation. Their sensitivity and people first approach were evident and enabled them to quickly get to the heart of technology challenges and work as part of the wider team.
