Background

A leading global confectionery brand was looking for an IT Strategy roadmap to deliver on their 3-5 year vision for the AEMEA region.

Approach

• Given the fact that there were 39 markets in the region, representative markets were shortlisted for the study.
• Meetings were held with the leadership team to understand the vision. Workshops were conducted with all the relevant stakeholders to understand the existing processes, challenges and IT landscape.
• Gap analysis report was created by comparing with the industry best practices.
• Recommendations were made spanning the entire business value chain and were grouped into initiatives that were ranked based on value realization for implementation as per the defined roadmap.

Results

• Various factors such as existing tools and solutions already available with the client, level of competence and degree of involvement required by client teams in implementation of new tools/solutions were considered while preparing the roadmap.
• Thus, the client had a high degree of confidence in the success of the initiatives and the goal of delivering on the vision.

Tech Stack

• MS Excel, PowerPoint & Visio for process mapping and architecture design
• Stakeholder workshops for vision alignment and discovery
