IT and Digital Strategy

A case study with Good Sammy Enterprises

Building a roadmap for Good Sammy's IT and digital strategy

Strategic challenges and objectives

Good Sammy Enterprises recognised that they had a historical under-investment in IT, which meant that ageing legacy systems and over-reliance on manual processes were impacting their operations and their ability to deliver on their strategic plan.

They needed a roadmap and future state architecture for their IT and Digital assets that would underpin their business aspirations.

The solution

Good Sammy enlisted JourneyOne’s Summit Planning team to help solve these challenges.

Summit Planning is JourneyOne’s lean, capability-based approach to developing digital strategy. It’s supported by Jibility, our purpose-built software for building highly visual strategic roadmaps.

Summit Planning takes a three-stage approach:

STAGE ONE

Envision

In the Envision stage of the journey, we set the vision, challenges and objectives.

An essential part of this stage was ensuring consensus on the strategic intent among the key stakeholders at Good Sammy.

STAGE TWO

Outline

The Outline stage involved identifying the IT capabilities and degree of change required in order to meet their strategic objectives.

We worked with the Good Sammy team to define the current and future state conceptual architecture to shape the evolution of their IT and digital platforms.

STAGE THREE

Plan

In the final stage, the team agreed upon the initiatives and produced a prioritised and costed roadmap for execution.

Achieving the IT and digital strategic vision

JourneyOne’s Summit Planners were able to deliver on Good Sammy’s requirement of a clear and logical way forward to achieve their vision for the IT and digital strategy.

The Good Sammy team know exactly where they’re going and are fully equipped to get there.
