About Us

ES365 can assist in providing solution delivery direction aligned to business strategy in both immediate (tactical) as well as in long term strategic scenarios. With tactical solutioning we will ensure enterprise grade, immediately implementable solutions that with minimal regret cost.

ES365 makes use of a value chain model to assess solution delivery progress against the value outcomes determined for each project stage gate. Each stage gate reached is assessed for its value outcomes with a view to failing early if not reached so as to minimise regret cost.

Solution architecture is an ongoing operational capability that requires an organisational structure, governance, processes and commensurate skill requirements to be implemented effectively. ES365 has experience in successfully establishing successful solution architecture practices, ES365 will also assist by operating the practice initially in a handover mode.

ES365 delivers solutions that are enterprise contextual and strategically aware, solutioning may often start with the modelling of a reference architecture before a solution design is derived. Reference architectures set the solutioning scene for providing technology direction, organisational alignment, standardisation, solution reuse, scale of economies in cost reduction and many other benefits.

ES365 can assist in defining the organisational structure, roles and responsibilities, principles, policies, standards, guidelines, processes and tools related to implementing and maintaining a secure and effective enterprise data landscape. The objective would be to deliver high quality data to the right people at the right time to support evidence-based decision making.

ES365 can assist in point-in-time delivery support of almost any technology-based solution across most technology disciplines.

Project delivery and benefits realisation are not the same thing. ES365 will work with the business to ensure that the project investment results in the intended benefits for the organisation.

Target selection is the formalised process of assessing potential technology vendor products or platforms against specific business and technology requirements. Beside deep vendor engagement, we construct comprehensive evaluation criteria, manage the RFI / RFP process, collate results and execute POCs to verify vendor claims (if required).

As business needs and the technology landscape evolves over time the relevance of existing solutions to the organisation’s needs, their effectiveness, the alignment to corporate strategy and so on may change. ES365 provides review services the assess both strategic relevance and/or technical performance of existing enterprise solutions.

The design and the actual implementation of an approved design are usually completely divergent. ES365 will work with implementation teams after design approval to ensure that what was agreed is actually implemented.

An investment proposal is used to quantify the full implementation and operational cost of potential technology solutions that would support a defined business case. ES365 will construct high-level solution designs, assess implementation and operating cost and effort amongst other factors against these designs to construct a viable investment proposal.

Effective solutions are not solely focussed on technology delivery, how the business operates and implements solutions in its operational environment is critical to its effectiveness. ES365 will assist in reviewing business ways of working to maximise solution effectiveness by assessing organisational structure, governance, processes and skill requirements.

ES365 can provide project management, programme management and project management office (PMO) resources to supplement organisational technology solution delivery.

Every organisation should have an approved technology roadmap to guide technology decision-making. The roadmap should represent existing and planned organisational capability, platform end-of-life dates, key decision-points that influence decision making as well as the business and technology principles that inform these decisions.
