Strategic implementation of IDM

The task of designing and implementing an identity management solution across an organisation with a complex IT infrastructure can appear daunting. Organisations of all types, both large and small and in the private or public sector, experience similar challenges when undertaking the management of such projects.

Many organisations have recognised the need for strong project management to overcome the problems that will arise. But in many cases they are unable to fulfil this need due to the high demand and limited availability of high quality project management staff and tools.

Identity management projects can touch on many parts of an organisation, for this reason our solutions are built on four critical areas:

• Strong project management – is a critical success factor for the accurate and timely delivery of IDM projects. For this reason we have adapted the industry recognised PRINCE 2 methodology of project management, and all of our professional services team are trained as PRINCE 2 practioners
• Leading edge technical know-how – our staff are highly-trained and experienced in the technologies on which our solutions are based, this is fundamental to delivering a successful project
• Methodology – through many years of experience we have acquired an in-depth knowledge and experience of designing and implementing identity management solutions, both at the tactical and strategic level. This has enabled us to develop a methodology that can cope with the political and organisational problems that can occur with 'silos of information'.
• Management control and quality processes – we have invested heavily in nurturing a culture of management control and quality processes throughout our organisation.
