Prepare: The foundation for a successful transformation

Making the right preparations

Structuring your project, assembling your team, and estimating effort

The Prepare phase focuses on getting your transformation project right. Using our DCS Analyze software, we identify transformation requirements, detect necessary data cleansing needs, and define the optimal migration strategy.

Together, we structure the project, assemble the right team, and develop a clear roadmap with realistic milestones. Through systematic planning, accurate cost estimation, and early stakeholder involvement, we create a solid foundation for a smooth and efficient transformation.
