Service · Where to start
See where technology value sits before you commit to a plan
A focused review of technology spend, contracts, applications, delivery and data. Leadership receives a value case it can test and a 90-day plan it can act on, with every figure in its ledger state.
01When it’s the right start
A first step when technology matters to the case
A Reset is the right start when technology carries part of the investment case, but nobody can yet say what it returns.
- 01A new acquisition, and a 100-day agenda still to set
- 02Technology costs rising faster than the business
- 03Duplicated systems and vendors after a buy-and-build
- 04An ERP, CRM or cloud programme without a clear economic case
- 05Little visibility of the value technology delivers
- 06An exit or refinancing where the technology story needs evidence
02What we examine
Five areas, using your own data
We look where value and risk concentrate, with the people who run each area.
- 01Spend
- Where technology money goes, by vendor, function and business unit, reconciled to the general ledger.
- 02Contracts
- Terms, renewal dates, notice periods and committed volumes, and the decisions they force.
- 03Applications
- Overlap, usage and cost across the application estate.
- 04Delivery portfolio
- Programmes in flight, their business cases and their real status.
- 05Data
- What the numbers can support today, and where they cannot yet be relied on.
03What leadership receives
Seven deliverables
Each one is written for decisions, not for the file. Every figure carries its ledger state, so a forecast is never read as a result.
- 01
Technology spend baseline
One view of run and change spend, reconciled to the general ledger.
- 02
Contract and renewal map
Commitments, notice dates and the decisions they force, in date order.
- 03
Application landscape
Overlaps, gaps, and candidates to consolidate or retire.
- 04
Delivery portfolio review
Which programmes carry value, which carry risk, and which to stop.
- 05
Value register
Each opportunity with an owner, a forecast and its ledger state: identified or validated.
- 06
90-day action plan
Sequenced actions, owners and decision points for the first quarter.
- 07
Leadership readout
A working session on the findings with the leadership team, the board or the investment team.
04How it runs
Week by week
- Week 1
Mobilise
Kick-off, data request, and interviews with leadership and the owners of technology.
- Week 2
Baseline
Spend and contracts reconciled; the application landscape mapped.
- Week 3
Assess
The delivery portfolio reviewed; opportunities identified and validated with their owners.
- Week 4
Plan and read out
The 90-day plan drafted with leadership, then the readout.
Shown for a four-week Reset. The scope sets the length, from two to six weeks.
05What it isn’t
Clear about the limits
Not a full audit
We look where value and risk concentrate, not at every system.
Not a certification
The Reset gives no compliance or security attestation.
Not a guarantee
We promise no result. Management keeps ownership of the outcomes.
Not savings
An estimate stays an estimate until it is implemented and verified in the ledger.
06What happens next
The plan belongs to you
Three ways to carry it out. You decide once the plan exists.
Your team executes
The plan is written for your leadership to run with its own people.
Your partners execute
Existing vendors and delivery partners take the actions the plan assigns to them.
Mirivis supports
We help carry it out, under a separately scoped engagement.
