LDS's Strategic Governance Planning services are focused on ensuring the portal is aligned to the company's business strategy, while returning the investment advantages expected of this critical business channel. To do this, we work with senior executives and portal stakeholders to define the strategic and operational structures required to support the portal within the enterprise.

Our best practices focus on gaining consensus and direction from senior stakeholders in order to align them in common purpose and vision for the portal. With organization, vision, and consensus in place, we define the resources and commitments needed as well as the important processes that bind the governance committee. The financial plan for the portal going forward, aligned to the Roadmap and Rationalized Release Plan, is established through best practices in the Strategic Governance process.

Value

Fully realized, Strategic Governance Planning keeps the portal (and the significant investment it represents) in the strategic line of sight of sponsoring executives. It establishes a credible, implementable set of best practices that this team can use to keep the portal as a continually valuable and viable tool for employees and for the business at-large.

Deliverables

The deliverable associated with LDS's Strategic Governance Planning services is typically the Strategic Governance Plan, which creates strategic alignment among key portal stakeholders by defining the organizational structure (including clear roles and responsibilities), critical success factors, and supporting processes and tools that will allow your company to set, resource, monitor, and maintain the portal’s strategic direction and priorities.
