Business Challenges

New markets disruptive technologies and fresh competitors present unprecedented opportunities in today&rsquos global business world. Nimble enterprises are capitalizing on these opportunities establishing firstto-market positions that are difficult for others to challenge.

However many IT organizations struggle to keep pace with this rapidly changing marketplace. They find that their line-of-business clients are increasingly impatient and dissatisfied with the services they deliver and frequently bypass IT to directly consume services from cloud providers in order to meet their time-to-market and cost objectives.

Leading IT executives are realizing that they need to fundamentally redesign their application infrastructure and operating models to remain competitive in the marketplace of IT services. EMC® can help accelerate this transformation enabling organizations to deliver IT services more rapidly and become a more agile business partner.

Service Description

The EMC IT Transformation Workshop accelerates your ability to deliver IT as a service and become a broker of private and public cloud services to the business.

Based on your answers to the questionnaire EMC will prepare a gap analysis benchmarking your organization&rsquos transformation readiness against your industry peers. Also based on the gaps identified EMC develops a set of recommendations tailored to your situation including a projected return on investment (ROI) analysis. Then during a half-day on-site session our team of transformation experts works with your key IT executives to:

• Review the results of the gap analysis and benchmark data
• Discuss the recommendations and review the financial impact of executing them
• Prioritize next steps and gain consensus among your executive team

After the workshop EMC will provide you with a transformation report that includes an executive-level summary documenting the workshop results as well as the benchmarks showing how your organization compares to the best peers in your industry across your application infrastructure and operating models along with recommendations for next steps you can take to achieve your transformation objectives.
