Clarasys supported by conducting long-term vision and strategy workshops to define people, processes and technology requirements. Rigorous process mapping and extensive stakeholder consultations followed, revealing opportunities for operational enhancement through process simplification and standardisation.

We carried out a detailed change impact assessment detailing the change across all Clarasys and contractor workstreams. Building on this, Clarasys presented a comprehensive change approach and plan, spanning a timeline of 18 months. This plan covered crucial aspects such as training, communication, and engagement, ensuring a holistic approach to change management.

A significant milestone in the transformation journey was the articulation of ‘to-be’ processes for the order-to-cash and purchase-to-pay functions within the finance team. These processes were designed to enhance efficiency through automation and standardization. Simultaneously, Clarasys undertook the challenge of designing and mapping a conceptual data model to aid with the transformation. This involved extensive planning and workshops in coordination with the Finance and Data teams, ultimately serving as the backbone of the incoming data changes.
