IT transition and IT cloud transitions
In the dynamic world of information technology, constant change is the only constant. Especially in terms of IT infrastructure and modern software solutions, adaptability is crucial, as it is essential to be able to react flexibly to changes in corporate structures and IT services within the company.
What factors trigger an IT transition and how is this realized in your company?
- New requirements arising from new or existing business areas
- The replacement of outdated software with modern cloud applications and technologies.
- Company sales, acquisitions or spin-offs.
- Comprehensive restructuring of your company
- Implementation of new technologies to reduce operating costs, such as cloud-based office applications. Replacement of so-called shadow IT
IT transition to the cloud
Companies need to react flexibly to integrations and disintegrations.
Planning and implementing your cloud transition
Comprehensive planning and preparation are key elements for a successful IT transition. We therefore start by working with you to develop an IT strategy so that all topics and procedures can be discussed and worked out in advance.
An IT due diligence report or IT strategy should be drawn up at the start of every transition, as this clearly shows where the process should begin and which areas need to be focused on in particular.
This report or strategy sets out which elements need to be migrated within the transition. This can be a simple data migration or a comprehensive integration of a company, which of course entails far more complex planning and responsibility. In the case of integrating an acquired company, it is necessary to draw up a detailed migration plan with the IT transition manager in order to clarify all issues in advance.
Frequently asked questions that have arisen during a transition:
- Which systems can be retained?
- Which systems need to be migrated
- What hardware will be needed in the future?
- Is a cloud solution suitable?
- Do security policies and naming conventions need to be adapted?
- How will the file structures of the various departments be migrated?
- Who will be responsible for employee training and communication
- How will future corporate communication take place internally and externally?
Time management is crucial
The schedule plays a central role in a transition.
The lead time required for an integration is often underestimated, as operations should only be interrupted for as short a time as possible. It is also very important to prepare your employees for the upcoming change so that they can quickly find their way around the new IT environment and continue their work efficiently.
All data, applications, clients, mail and application servers, external and internal access are prepared together with the department heads in such a way that they cause as little downtime as possible for the users.
With sufficient planning, uninterrupted operation can often be maintained even during the migration.
