WHY I&A

Government – Strategic CONSULTING

Company Overview

The Budgeting and Planning process at the Department had been performed with the assistance of the Business Objects Budgeting and Planning solution over a 7-8 year period. This application was in the process of being de-supported by the vendor.

Strategic Consulting

In addition, I&A were asked to formulate the input required for a Tender document to be distributed to suitable vendors facilitating the procurement of appropriate software and associated services to deliver the desired outcome.
Over its 23 years of operation, I&A has formulated its own methodology in completing such briefs. This methodology includes:

Gaining an understanding of current processes and systems that were in place. Identifying deficiencies of current processes and systems and additional functionality that the organisation required. Recommend a “best fit” Future State solution.
