Where has all the synergy gone? Most companies continue to consider their IT projects isolated and finite delivery efforts. There’s no collective consciousness or guiding principles that bind these projects together. (Us: We think it should be common master data, but that’s another service for another time).
The fact is that new projects can’t be successfully delivered in a vacuum. You can’t deliver forward without examining backward, history being doomed to repeat itself, and all that. And, as management guru Tom Peters once said, “You can’t live without an eraser."
Baseline Consulting is not a systems integrator the way your CIO is probably thinking of systems integrators right now. We’re onshore, we’re usually onsite, and we cost more than 20 bucks an hour. But we bring a level of business expertise, seasoned delivery skills, and leadership vision to make it all work together.
What does this look like at our clients?
- We have managed outsourcing projects at large companies, providing project management, requirements, and design services before allocating implementation tasks to Hyderabad.
- We have evaluated vendors and provided plans for integrating new technology solutions into incumbent IT architectures.
- We have deployed MDM solutions and, in so doing, have studied how our customers’ operational systems communicate, how they generate data, and how they define and access data.
- We have assessed middleware and ETL systems to help a client integrate several new systems into a highly error-prone data warehouse environment.
- We know how a multitude of data sources send and receive data to support business processes.
- We’re unequaled (we know it’s a bit over the top, but our clients have told us this) at linking data from various areas of the business into a common integration framework.
Where has all the synergy gone? It’s there. It’s between your systems. It’s between data and business processes. It’s between Baseline and you.
