Business systems strategy design

Business systems strategy design, implementation and roll out in leading organisations.

PCSG has developed and managed the delivery of a multi-million pound 5 year business system strategy with one of UK’s leading construction companies.

The objective of the strategy was to improve the efficiency of day to day operations, both on site and in regional offices. The scope covered all the systems used to deliver site services to projects and clients, shared services such as a new standard desk top, email, unified communications and the digital infrastructure needed to support the IT and business systems services.

Many of the old business systems were ageing, disconnected and in need of replacement. The Strategy replaced the ageing disconnected systems with quick and easy to use alternatives. The main driver all the way through was efficiency.

There were a number of influences which were carefully considered in the development of the business systems strategy, including an expectation that systems are reliable and simple to use. The strategy made the most of new technologies on the market, such as Building Information Modelling (BIM), tablet computing, smart phone devices and widespread cheap internet connectivity.

New business systems were designed to integrate the BIM best practice into the firm’s design, construction and maintenance processes which is driving project benefits including lower cost, reduced waste and improved delivery for clients.

PCSG brings business systems, technical, change and project management expertise in a team led by Mark Bew, Adrian Burgess, Rachel Leary and Paul Stanyer.

Our team worked closely with a cross-section of business personnel, sharing technical knowledge and facilitating internal meetings and discussions. With finite resources available, PCSG has ensured all work was delivered in line with a clearly defined brief and client-approved budget.
