Our sourcing expertise is sought by clients with a variety of business and/or IT challenges.

Business-driven challenges will vary: the desire to be more competitive in the marketplace; the need to invest in the growth of the business (both organically and inorganically); the need to be an attractive employer, or the need to cut costs to meet financial targets, to name just a few examples. In all cases, there will be an impact on the way IT operates and how IT supports the business. This will often necessitate new strategies and ways of working, resulting in some level of restructuring of IT.

Considerations will include, for example, whether to buys products, services or solutions to build solutions in-house, and to understand how any approach achieves a target state.

Specific IT challenges may include the drive to provide more for less, the need to improve operational performance; poorly executed supplier contracts; customer dissatisfaction with IT; ageing technology estates; and duplication across the technology estate.

Mason Advisory has the experience and insight to help clients navigate through their challenges to deliver the desired objectives through appropriate and relevant sourcing strategies and execution programmes.
