Varför behövs metoder?
• Struktur
• Dokumenterad, paketerad erfarenhet
• Gemensamt språk
• Gemensamma arbetsmetoder
• Fördefinierad dokumentation och mallar
• ”Checklista” => proaktivitet
• Fokus kan läggas på att lösa arbetsuppgiften, inte struktur,
adminstration, planering
• Förutsägbarhet
• Trygghet
• Ökad möjlighet att leverera lyckade projekt

Varför ADM?
• Ett konsekvent ramverk för metoder gör det enklare att navigera mellan
metoderna; du kan fokusera på projektarbetet utan att lära dig nya
metoder på varje projekt
• Samma erfarenhet och förväntningar mellan projekt skapar möjliggör
tätt samarbete med teamet och din teamledare från första dagen; du vet
vad du skall göra
• Ett gemensamt metodspråk betyder att du kan ta hjälp av kollegor från
hela världen, och du kan snabbt bli varm i kläderna i nya projekt
• Korrekt estimerade projektuppgifter gör att du kan driva arbetet framåt
med övertygelse och mot ett gemensamt mål

sourcing
•
Experts do it
more accurate
and faster

Offshoring is a success factor for Accenture in
Sweden and continues to increase
• Approx 1000 employed in India per month
• Approximately 250-300 Indians in Swedish projects
• All larger IT project have offshore components today
• Increased turnover with 50% with good profitability
• “Sanity factor” rather than competitive advantage when competing in
today’s market
• Few of our competitors can compete with our organic growth at the
off-shore locations, utilizing the same methodology for delivery across
the globe

Two different approaches adopted by the Onshore
Delivery Leadership heavily influenced their respective
offshore “experiences”.
Project A
Copyright © 2007 Accenture All Rights Reserved.
Project B
28
Project A Comments on working with the DC
Mobilisation
"….my first impression is very positive. We have created a good starting
point for the project – all is left is to deliver". [Onshore Development Team
Lead]
Post Implementation
"the work with the IDC was very good and we were able to expand the
scope from core ABAP development into functional testing, conversion and
BW as well. [Onshore Development Team Lead]
"the project can be seen as a triumph and has in a way broken new ground
in delivering a truly collaborative solution with our Offshore colleagues. With
this in mind a special mention should go to our dedicated team at the India
Delivery Centre, who delivered not only 2/3 of all development but also
provided much needed on-site functional expertise in SAP Plant
Maintenance, Materials Management, Project systems and BW.
[Overall Delivery Lead]

29
Project B Not so good.
• Many Delivery & Quality problems
• Frustration & excessive unplanned overtime, both onshore and offshore
• Witch hunts & finger pointing
• Time consuming escalation and intervention from DC and OG
management
• Cost overruns
• Delivered, but with much pain
• Soured experience for all concerned, including the client.

The offshore ratio depends on the project and client
maturity as well as the complexity of the system portfolio

“The three key lessons learnt are communication,
communication and communication…”
…and additional lessons learnt includes:
•Follow and respect the established methodology and working process
•Clearly define handover points, entry/exit criteria, deliverables
•Plan technical connectivity early in the process
•Plan well ahead, involving the off-shore team as early as possible
•One Team, not “us and them”
•For larger, more complex engagements, embed onshore solution skills and
management strength into the offshore location

34
Off-shoring impacts
Offshoring will affect roles but not replace them
• Technical skills locally will be vital in the future as well
• Lead roles will need to be positioned locally
Offshoring is positive for business and personal development
• We have far greater possibilities to match resources with specific
competence and experience to open roles in projects
• Having experts of the specific area within a team gives opportunities
to learn and minimizes project risk
