Cloud Operating Model Design and Deployment

Accelerating cloud adoption by ensuring a Cloud Operating Model is in place to support digital ambitions

 Following initial cloud deployments, our clients now face the challenge of how to scale successfully whist meeting the demands of sufficient governance, focussed security and effective cost controls with a limited skill set.

Meeting this challenge requires updated thinking on how to build and run technology and how to weave this new approach into the organisational fabric. BJSS has developed an approach to successfully design and deploy an operating model fit for the future.

We believe greater adaptability requires a combination of the right people, supported by the organisational culture and values, lightweight processes and appropriate tools. BJSS helps clients by using a design thinking approach to review, design and implement an adaptable, agile Cloud Operating Model to support digital ambitions.

The operating model defines the logical flow of interaction from idea to customer and engages key functions including people, platforms, governance, security finance and operations in the design. It’s is not just focussed on building a “Cloud Centre of Excellence” but focusses on how all parts of the business play a part in the transformation.

BJSS has developed a five-stage approach to defining and delivering an adaptable operating model suitable for cloud operations.
