A leading goods
and groceries chain in the USA
Before
The US based foods
company had automated several key transactions with
a wide range of applications. These applications
acted as “Islands” of technology –
often offering little synergies in the enterprise
ecosystem. This wide variety of applications made
it increasingly difficult for the IT Team to govern
it and the business users to leverage on it to meet
the ever changing business requirements.
How Wipro helped
Wipro’s enterprise
architects – equipped with knowledge of leading
enterprise architecture frameworks and tools to
realize the framework – stepped in to establish
a framework for the enterprise. As part of the engagement,
the team established formal governance processes,
policies, principles and guidelines to enable the
enterprise to take informed decisions on technology
directions and technology acquisition. The Governance
structure was also proposed in order to support
the established framework and the processes that
were laid down. As a preamble to subsequent projects
in the enterprise, standards were established and
documented.
After
With this changed
landscape, the organization was in a position to
establish a close relationship between strategy,
applications and data in the enterprise. This helped
prepare the organization to respond to changes in
the ecosystem in a favorable manner – and increasing
stakeholder value in the process.
