KPMG Powered Evolution

You’ve done the hard bit. Your transformation is largely complete and you’re ready to reap the benefits of your new-look business function. With the project nearly complete, your function moves into ‘business as usual’. The project team is re-deployed. Finally, you can stop transforming and move on.

But that would be repeating the mistakes of the past. You need a solution to prevent your new technology platform from becoming tomorrow’s legacy system and to keep your function at the forefront of leading practice.

That solution needs to drive ongoing value. It needs to allow you to gear up for new business opportunities as they emerge. It needs to allow you to adapt to market conditions and regulatory changes and it needs to allow you to take advantage of new technologies and process improvements.

To address these needs, we’ve created Powered Evolution.

Powered Evolution is an on demand service specifically designed for you to continually optimise your Powered Enterprise functional transformation.

It is delivered in the same way as the Powered Enterprise program, through a highly skilled and effective multi-tier global delivery network that provides local and market expertise together with global process and technical resources to keep your function at its peak.

Each situation might be subtly different but typically includes three key areas:

Base Services – Case management, quarterly update support, patch management, knowledge management, service desk, operations management, and testing.

On Demand Services – Configuration changes, development & enhancements, security & controls, data integration, interface services, and report writing.

Governance – Release planning and management, change management, and reporting.

We have a dedicated team of skilled practitioners working in member firms around the world to deliver forward-looking insights and help maximise your investment. These include (but are not limited to):

• Platform and Function-specific talent
• Client service managers
• Target Operating Model and solution architects
• Governance architects
• Release management resources
• Developers
• Configuration specialists
• Platform admin specialists 
• Technical resources
• Testing resources and tools

Once you’ve been through the hard (but rewarding) work of a functional transformation, it would be a shame to be happy with good-enough. Instead, to continually maximise value from your investment (and your resources) you need to continue to adapt and transform – both to the world around you, and to the latest technology and leading practices available to you.

You’ll need access to the right skills to do so, and it’s not just about IT resources. You’ll need people who understand the relationship between process and technology and the impact that one might make on the other.

KPMG Powered Evolution offers the right blend of skills and resources for you to embrace change on an ongoing basis, and helps deliver sustainable value that moves your business forward.

Powered Enterprise provides you with three integrated elements for transformational success. Using our tried and tested operating model, implementation suite of tools and ongoing evolution services you can choose your desired functional outcomes then make them a reality.
