We use our Momentum strategy workshops to understand and better address your business and functional drivers for a technology initiative. The three primary phases of Momentum are shown below:
Problem Definition
Each Collabera engagement begins with clearly defining the issues at hand. Our initial workshop will take place with all key stakeholders, and will establish the business drivers for change and help establish the vision required for a successful engagement.
Assessment in each of these critical areas leads to a clear, widely accepted definition of the issue at hand. A key step is defining business drivers: essentially, what are the needs, requirements or objectives behind the strategy to be developed? Whether the driver is lower costs or better visibility, these must be clearly defined and quantified with a set criteria for improvement. With the problem defined and opportunities for enhanced ROI identified, Collabera moves on to the next step.
Prioritization
Another focus that makes Momentum unique is our client-based prioritization. There are countless areas that could be improved in any organization, but the best results come with focus and a clear strategy that is agreed upon across the business. With that in mind, we work with our clients to help define the major areas of functional change, and the associated areas of tactics required to implement this change. Injecting industry best practices along the way, the combined Collabera and client team are able to clearly define the functional areas of change.
Each of these functionalities will become part of our Momentum Matrix, and will then be broken down further into specific processes or systems that support each overarching functionality, as shown in the excerpt of this sample Momentum Matrix.
Once the requirements are defined, understood and agreed upon by the business, the prioritization process begins. The secret to success lies in prioritization - focusing on the functional benefits that will drive the most amount of return with the smallest investment.
The ROI Roadmap
Once each functional area is prioritized, a strategic roadmap is created. The matrix is essential in determining which functionalities are "quick-wins" - that is, changes that can be implemented with minimal effort but will provide significant benefits to the enterprise and the ROI of the project. Recommendations are also made for future changes that can be made to provide further benefit. With the strategy completed according to the Momentum methodology, the client team can move forward with a technology investment knowing they've made the right decisions along the way.
