Brightive was asked to tender for the role of strategic advisor to undertake a review of ICT Service Delivery in a NHS foundation trust. Brightive tendered competitively against several “big firms” winning the contest and then leading the engagement.
The Brightive team developed a tailored stakeholder engagement, best-practice governance & process assessment, and IT Value/Costing metrics across the 5 participating organisations to create a data-driven options appraisal process. This led to a clear recommendation on future structure, savings and implementation approach that was fully accepted and endorsed by the Chief Executive sponsors.

• Governance/Organisation/Performance Management;
• Sourcing Strategy including joint ventures/outsourcing/right-sourcing options;
• Architecture Roadmap including application, infrastructure and integration
architecture models and sequencing/high-level logical roadmap;
