GDPR – we have no choice but to comply, so just get it done

The Challenge

An outsourcing finance software provider required wholesale software changes to comply with the GDPR regulation. 17 well recognised high street and global clients relied on this software to become compliant by a fixed deadline. The software had a range of versions in production, so a rationalisation and upgrade programme crucial.

What we did

Undertook an assessment of the published regulation to complete a business-wide impact assessment. Once known, shaped the client engagement strategy, working closely with executives to establish solid commercial propositions, Once agreed, mobilised a programme to deliver in Agile, working with colleagues in India standing up an offshore testing team.

The outcome

  • The core processes and underlying software advanced significantly in a very short time period, delivering new capabilities and, most importantly, be GDPR compliant.
  • Strategically it also strengthened the core market proposition and through the versioning rationalisation reduced client risk and lowered operational costs.
  • All clients had successful upgrades to their core software ahead of the regulation deadline.
