Client success story

DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Aligning the Supply Chain functional requirements to procure a vendor​

CLIENT:

Major Government and Health Sector Client

The challenge:

The major health sector client had spent 18 months searching for a vendor who could meet their needs but realised their requirements had not been clearly defined, making it difficult for vendors to respond. They needed a comprehensive set of functional requirements before going to market.

Need to define the functional requirements in a standard language

3 weeks drop dead timeline to complete the work and go out to the market

Ensure alignment across functional teams and define the minimum viable product (MVP)

The Solution:

Deployed an accelerated 3-week plan, using proven templates, to finalise requirements and fast-track market readiness.

1-to-1 remote workshop to understand functional requirements and f2f workshop to align the stakeholders on the requirements

Deep supply chain solution expertise to advise on what’s feasible and define the requirements in vendor agnostic language

Daily drumbeats to keep the leadership informed of progress and ask for support where needed to deliver within the 3 week timeline

THE IMPACT:

Delivered before 3 weeks deadline with requirements fully defined in standard, vendor agnostic language and reduced by 50% to define Minimum Viable Product (MVP) ​

Captured requirements efficiently with minimal stakeholder involvement, saving time and reducing disruption.

Removed health sector jargons and defined the requirements in simple supply chain language.

Helped the client classify the requirements as out of the box / configurable / customisable to help define MVP.
