Orion – Case Study
Case Study
Orion
How did we do it?
Our first step was to gather Orion’s requirements. We did this by facilitating workshops with stakeholders. These workshops helped us to define the scope and remit of the PPM tool, to obtain a quick view of the current state of portfolio and project management at Orion and to understand their pain points. Orion then prioritised their requirements and agreed on the evaluation criteria and their weightings - which would be used to assess vendors’ offerings after the delivery of their product demonstrations.
Next ValueKey undertook a desktop scan of the current market to identify PPM tools and vendors suitable for Orion’s requirements. The output of this scan was a longlist. Orion reviewed this longlist and confirmed which product offerings (and vendors) would make up the shortlist.
ValueKey conducted an in-depth analysis of each of the shortlisted options before engaging with these vendors on Orion’s behalf to provide demos of their products. ValueKey supported Genesis by facilitating the demos and the product scoring afterwards (against the weighted assessment criteria).
The ValueKey team also determined the total cost of ownership and interviewed the client references provided to us by Orion’s top shortlisted vendors (after the second round of more in-depth demos).
How did it go?
The process ValueKey took Orion through, to determine which product offering best met all their requirements, provided Orion with enough confidence to choose a vendor and product and start their PPM tool implementation journey.
