Derrann in a few words
Working with multiple organisations to deliver operational impacting projects and assisting with interim management assignments.
I specialise in providing support to deliver high impact projects that need to be delivered against a live environment. I have extensive experience of assessing the “as is” estate and developing a strategy to achieve the required “to be” estate; this includes the technology, budget, people, training, acceptance and on-going support impact.
My experience allows me to ensure that appropriate Request for Information and Request for Quotation documents are returned from vendors to allow for the tendering process to take place following this I complete the contract negotiation with the selected vendor. I have extensive experience of ensuring continuity of service during the exit of one vendor and the onboarding of a new vendor as well as ensuring the internal acceptance of change both within the IT function and across organisations.
