The Supplier will work with non-technical teams and external delivery partners to agree technical architectures that maximise potential of our systems whilst minimising ongoing support costs and functional duplication. We are expanding our in-house teams skills, depth and resilience across our ICT, Dynamics 365 and Digital teams to support future growth as our digital platforms develop and applications support is brought into our azure tenancy. We have a number of new digital projects in progress across the organisation. These projects are working within the digital framework and pathway set out in our digital strategy. We operate a hybrid cloud model with plans to migrate finance this year to enable a fully cloud deployment within our Azure tenancy. We have recently implemented MS Teams for telephony and plan to implement a CTI platform to integrate this with our MS Dynamics CRM. We are establishing a Digital Strategy board to co-ordinate digital initiatives, develop and agree of common technical and data standards, establish organisation wide change control and oversee the development of user journeys. The business problem you need to solve Our Digital Strategy outlines the future operating model. At a high level this is based on complete integration of our services to provide a coherent and user focused digital experience that brings resources to the user to simplify their interactions with us. The current systems have been implemented at different points of time by different teams, there are common threads running through the capabilities, such as SSO and Google Analytics that support the future strategy, but the data exists in silos and does not support the realisation of user journeys and insight. To deliver the user-based journeys, which built around personas, there needs to be tighter integration of the data collected. This tighter integration, coupled with planned Data Architecture will be used to outline the data models that will be required to build out the personas and use the power of the existing Microsoft (and other investments) to transform SCW into the data driven organisation we are becoming. Our challenge is to effectively communicate and deliver this vision to establish the digital and data sharing infrastructure to achieve the value add to their products of this integration in terms of user reach, insight and potential for engagement and VFM.
