4 4 MEGA Consulting Offering The on-going search for operational excellence results in more complex and more frequent initiatives involving business, IT, infrastructures, and people. Using the industry s best practices, as well as MEGA s innovations in enterprise architecture and system design, MEGA consultants address critical business challenges in a consistent and proven manner. They guarantee that optimization and transformation projects deliver value to the organization, and are accomplished on schedule and on budget. THE THREE TYPES OF PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT MEGA offers a sustainable way to improve business performance by providing the means for organizations to optimize, transform, and govern consistently. Our experts and our solutions help customers make the best use of operational resources, manage growth, establish risk policies, and monitor controls and compliance. Ludovic Relandeau, Vice President, France Operations ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE MODELING AND SYSTEM DESIGN To address operational complexity, MEGA consultants use enterprise architecture modeling and system design approaches based on standard languages. These methods implement dedicated enterprise architecture frameworks that are matched to the system to be designed or optimized. TRANSFORMATION In transformation projects, it is necessary to understand the ability of the organization to change before moving it forward. MEGA consultants have mastered transformation methods that are recognized for the success they create for enterprises. The knowledge of our consultants ensures precise planning for change, while making sure that change options can be fully supported by the organization. GOVERNANCE Implementing controls and continuous improvement policies is a critical challenge in the pursuit of operational excellence. MEGA consultants have consolidated internal control, risk management, and total quality methods into practical and consistent governance approaches.

5 5 MEGA Consulting for Business Managers Business process excellence and the optimization of organizations are part of MEGA s core business practices and have been since the company began some 20 years ago. Today, these practices are required more than ever in order to develop and deploy internal control policies, whether the controls are imposed by regulatory constraints or driven by the company s own governance goals. MEGA consultants are specifically involved in assignments such as: Company business strategy formalization Business process maps and business architecture Business continuity and disaster recovery plans Best practices sharing and rationalization Process optimization and operational improvement Implementation of a business process-based governance framework Risk mapping and internal control systems Implementation of a continuous improvement capability Operational performance optimization benefits from analysis and measurement tools that are adapted to actual challenges. By combining operational risk maps and Lean Six Sigma approaches, our consultants take advantage of powerful analysis and management models. These provide the means to communicate real and tangible improvements to managers, helping them make decisions based on clear and measurable facts. Andrea La Malfa, Consulting Director, MEGA Italy

6 6 MEGA Consulting for IT Managers At times, when CIOs and IT directors are under growing pressure from time and budget constraints, the adoption of standard practices, such as TOGAF, ITIL and CMMI, allows them to establish the foundation of an effective IT function with defined processes and automated tasks. By providing methods and management tools to the IT function, MEGA consultants help them manage the actual risks of IT systems reengineering. They specifically assist with the following projects: Because of the increasing complexity of modern enterprises, implementation of IT systems can only be done with modern, scalable approaches. Proper IT system architecture and design is the first benefit that IT departments gain from repository-based tools and methodologies. Mastering those practices is a pre-requisite to the controlled reduction of IT complexity sought by so many CIOs today.

7 7 MEGA Consulting for System Engineering Specialists The increasing complexity of large systems makes classical engineering methods incomplete. Large defense industry organizations have initiated new frameworks that allow the effective description of increasingly complex systems. Model- Based System Engineering (MBSE) is gaining acceptance as an industry best practice for systems engineering. With the MBSE approach, MEGA consultants will provide you with: FOR THE DEFINITION OF SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE Methodological expertise based on NAF, DoDAF or MoDAF* Design of architecture models Definition of the methodological guide Definition of the training program Teams training FOR PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS Definition of the governance structure Change management Projects and programs management *NATO Architecture Framework Department of Defense Architecture Framework Ministry of Defense Architecture Framework Initial results from early projects using the MBSE approach confirm its value during the design and maintenance phases. In my experience, I ve found that modeling to design modular architectures is especially useful. Peter Bruenenberg, Vice President, German, Austrian, Swiss Operations

10 10 Standards and Frameworks Modeling has become the common way to understand and grasp complex systems in many sectors. Depending on the system to describe, various professional communities have developed specific frameworks based on standard languages (UML2, BPMN ). The large defense industry organizations were pioneers with effective frameworks, allowing them to describe increasingly complex defense and security systems. Through international initiatives such as the NAF (NATO Architecture Framework), or local ones with DODAF (the Department of Defense Architecture Framework), new standards for specifying complex system architectures have emerged. They are aligned with the most recent modeling notations provided by international standards bodies such as the OMG (Object Management Group). In the particular domain of risk management, the COSO 2 repository is widely used. MEGA is actively engaged in the modernization of these modeling standards, both on the side of industrial consortiums as well as at the level of standard bodies. Our consultants are proficient in these standards; they can leverage these techniques in the context of your projects, demonstrate their benefits to you, and transfer their expertise to your teams. In addition, we continuously consolidate the options provided by different architecture frameworks into the MEGA Suite and our own consulting practices, so we can deliver the best solutions to meet very individualized customer projects and environments. Contributing to international standards bodies and professional associations has been a strategic practice for MEGA since its creation.
