Design & implement
Why, when and how to take the leap towards an agile IT organisation is an individual challenge for each IT organisation.
- Karer Consulting provides a SAFe blueprint on an agile organisation as a foundation which can be tailored with pre-defined guardrails
- Customized approach is required to ensure best fit to your individual business model of your IT organization
- Based on the strategy for your agile organisation Karer Consulting provides a SAFe blueprint for a scalable approach which starts small with multiple options to grow.
Service-focused approach
Starting with the right size of an agile organisation can be the key to success for the transformation. Based on Karer Consulting Digital Operating Model, the first guiding principle "follow the service" provides a service based approach with additional guardrails for your transformation:
- Focus on specific IT services following the value streams of the business to optimize co-create value
- Combinable with typical organisation setups and hybrid approaches
- Start small and grow iterative with continuous feedback following the strategy for your agile organisation instead of taking a huge leap
A holistic OCM approach is a key element of the transformation towards an agile organisation even when starting with a small service-focused scope. To take everyone on this journey we plan ahead and implement the right measures at the right time with the right stakeholders to guide the required mindset change throughout the organization.
