Our key challenges Projects, an ever growing demand More resources and new capabilities: SAP, ATG, Stibo, Innovations Different calibre as today & more international: programme managers, BA s Core platform build & deploy experience Convergence Roadmap Stabilize new governance with each OpCo Stronger governance to push for commonality and manage Group and Cross OpCo projects Flexibility Resources on demand : external resources Capability on demand : external resources High pressure on costs DYI is retail => highly competitive business Need to accelerate synergies and put in place new ways of working (off shoring) 4
The levers to manage these challenges Building an additional and flexible capability : Right sourcing approach Critical skills in sourced Others: outsourced, on and off shored A strong governance to select and drive our project portfolio efficiently and ensure convergence Strong Efficient Project Methodology to consistently manage our projects across Kingfisher Business ownership: no Business sponsor, no project Value creation: no benefit, no project The Business Sponsor owns the project and is accountable for the benefits Development of a strategic partnership with fewer partners Create mutually beneficial opportunities Cost relevant at all time Understanding of KITS environments and investing to keep knowledge current Minimise the selection process Mature conversations through the end to end vendor management process Faster resolution of issues 5
The EPOS software factory and the offshoring initiative The context We had multiple versions in use and being converged (2 in France, Spain, Russia, China) The software vendor became unable to support our growth and our new requirements They lost most of their experts The quality of the deliverables was poor and getting worst What were the alternatives we studied Change and implement our UK EPOS software: no support provided by the UK company in continental Europe Implement a brand new best of breed solution: a huge cost and risk alongside a project plan that was challenging and critical to achieve business objectives Build a new software version with our EPOS software vendor: too risky Buy the code and build our own software factory: no internal skills, not our strategy Buy the code and build an off-shore software factory The decision we made and the partner selected De-risking this top critical application has been our top priority Extending our capability and become more flexible in the future has been our second driver Cost We decided to buy the code and build an off-shore software factory We launched a RFP: TCS came out as the preferred partner: real Retail expertise, software factory competence, flexibility, openness, can do attitude 6
