Course Overview

The distance between a working prototype of rapid platform integration and a system the business can depend on is where most budgets disappear. The constraint on this area of digital and data-driven work is rarely the model or the platform — it is the data and the operating discipline behind it. Most organisations already have a policy on the digital and data-driven work discipline; far fewer can show it working. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting rapid platform integration, ready to be adapted internally. The level assumes working familiarity with the transformation programme but no prior formal training in this part of digital and data-driven work. Mature organisations treat the digital and data-driven work capability as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of rapid platform integration and prepares them for it. The programme is built to be used, and every section of the wider digital and data-driven work agenda it covers ends in something applicable. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for this part of digital and data-driven work rather than a set of notes.
