How key stakeholders may benefit from Curam-Experts Business Solution Model and Solution Delivery Method?

CEO

Our experience with existing Curam implementations indicates that despite benefits delivered by COTS integration approach, organization-wide implementation can easily go the wrong way if it is not supported by the encompassing structural and process framework - something neither Curam Application Suite nor Curam consultants provide

 

Curam documentation does not address top-to bottom hierarchy of all SEM and Curam objects, solutions, modules, processes, and implementation options as they are represented in Curam-Experts’ Business Solution Model. By leveraging the model, the agency will take full control over the implementation and lessen its reliance on the expertise of Curam consultants

 

Curam-Experts’ Curam Solutions Delivery Method comprises reference Curam program roadmaps, which will deliver confidence that long-term, incremental programs are on track and under full control of the senior management

 

CFO

Curam implementation is a havy, long-term investment which may easily drain agency resources, if not committedproperly. Only by controlling implementation needs, wants, means, and costs rather than solely relying  on Curam consultants, the agency may ensure that it pays for and gets what it really needs

 

Curam-Experts’ Business Solution Model is a key to ensuring that nothing but required Curam infrastructure modules and component options are obtained, and that they are obtained only when they are needed, potentially helping to save millions in costs

 

Curam-Experts’ Solutions Delivery Method ships with a complete collection of standard Curam project profiles and our proprietary Roadmap Builder which, when applied during program roadmap preparation, will help to achieve superior accuracy

 

CIO/CTO

Every large-scale Curam implementation project involves decommissioning existing legacy IT components and commissioning new ones. Understanding impacts from induction of Curam on the existing enterprise systems is a large and important part of the IT governance process

 

Curam-Experts’ Business Solution Model is ideally suited for screening future technology needs and system fit-gap analysis, based on desired business architecture criteria

 

Curam-Experts’ Solutions Delivery Method includes Curam Component Survey that acts as a technology component checklist during future state planning

 

Program Directors

Curam Business Application Suite is large and its implementation may take many years and prone to  risks. Curam Business Application Suite lucks program guidance for resources and budget planning, and potential implmentation risks

 

Curam-Experts’ Business Solution Model represents a complete reference structure of the framework’s business and technology capabilities. By choosing from these capabilities and assigning them to project phases, the program may ensure consistent planning  to deliver on its commitments

 

With its embedded classifications of Curam project profiles,  solutions, and modules Curam-Experts’ Solutions Delivery Method is irreplaceable guide for implementation planning of multi-phase, multi-project programs and projects

 

Project Managers

For a project manager without or with limited Curam hands-on experience conducting accurate and sustainable project planning is close to impossible

 

Curam-Experts’ Business Solution Model categories provide groups which may drive project phases and iterations

 

Curam-Experts’ Solutions Delivery Method activity workflows further help to structure plan sections, while its activities support task and role mapping. Method templates and checklists provide ready to use project deliverables, which can be directly incorporated into the plan

 

Business Architects

Out-of- the box Curam documentation does not include guided instructions for building organization business architecture based SEM on Curam Application Suite workflows and modules

 

Curam-Experts’ Business Solution Model categorizes SEM principles that should be attributed to when implementing a custom business solution based on Curam, and includes detailed overview of its business architecture domains, services, case types, best practices, and workflows

 

Curam-Experts’ Solutions Delivery Method artefacts help navigate the agency’s internal business process and ensure alignment with Curam business and application architectures through business artefact mapping, case lifecycle modeling, product definition, and workflow / business rule customization

Solution or Application Architects

Curam solution is a complex mix of middleware, standard modules, custom application components, pre-generated plumbing components, as well as custom workflows, rules, and interfaces  - all supported by the dynamic implementation environment

 

In Curam-Experts’ Business Solution Model IT architects will find complete Curam architecture organization structure to help them learn Curam solution components and decide about their selection and usage

 

Curam-Experts’ Solutions Delivery Method adds detailed instructions for modules and component selection, and options for application customization
