Konvergent was engaged by the Travelex Group HR leadership to shape their new TOM, using a business capability-led approach. They wanted to deliver real strategic value to the organisation rather than just being ‘keepers of the policies.’

This was a new approach for TOM design at Travelex. The project highlighted important capability and communication gaps across the HR function that were inhibiting growth and causing unnecessary issues.

Several challenges were addressed. They wanted to harmonise global HR processes and to make better use of their investment in Cloud technology. They also wanted to empower the wider HR leadership to communicate strategies effectively across different layers of employees in all countries and cultures within the Travelex Group.

Konvergent delivered significant objectives that supported their transformation. In particular, we helped them develop the following:
• A target operating model, particularly in the domains of information and IT systems
• A TDA function providing assurance for Solution Architecture

I can't recommend the team highly enough, and we are looking forward to the ongoing engagement as we mature the architecture function within Kier.”

Following a meeting over coffee in Barcelona, Kier engaged Konvergent in a strategic mission to bring enterprise architecture to the boardroom.

This would require new skills and an expansion of their role beyond technology assurance and solution architecture. Unfortunately, they did not have buy-in from their IT Leadership Team.

Due to the lack of maturity, we had to focus our efforts on simplicity of message in order to get the necessary traction.
