Case study ยท IT/OT transition

Managing a complex IT/OT transition without losing operational continuity

An OT workstream kept operational technology moving through a multi-site change of control and into business as usual.

The challenge

The client had to complete a multi-site change of control and reach a new operating environment while operational technology kept running.

The complexity

  • More than one site
  • Operational technology running alongside corporate IT
  • Multiple suppliers and third-party dependencies
  • Business-critical systems that had to stay available

Our approach

Discover

Understand the estate, the suppliers and the dependencies before the change of control.

Design

Set the cutover sequence and the operational readiness plan.

Deliver

Coordinate suppliers, system migrations, testing and cutover.

Operate

Move the workstream into the new operating environment, then into business as usual.

The result

The change of control was completed, including the first day in the new operating environment, and the OT workstream then moved into business as usual. Operational continuity was held through the transition.
