3 Meeting Your Performance Objectives Ludovic Relandeau Vice President, Managing Director UK Operations MEGA International MEGA International is here to help Managers who share the belief that innovation and quality play a fundamental role in creating sustainable value for their company, customers and shareholders. To respond to your operational excellence needs, MEGA gives you access to highly skilled consultants from the best British and European schools, who are certifi ed on the latest approaches and methodologies. Working alongside your teams in a spirit of partnership, our consultants will help you establish effective practices and maximise the utilisation of your human and technology assets. Results driven, our consultants bring simultaneously, conceptual and pragmatic capabilities; they will make a dramatic difference to the success of your business and information system projects. I hope we will have the opportunity to demonstrate this in future projects. 3

4 Business Consulting, a Function Providing True Business Value Enterprise Architecture MEGA consultants have leveraged modelling techniques and EA frameworks for a wide range of IT system design and business process related initiatives for more than 20 years. With a market facing an increasing complexity of systems and business transformation initiatives, MEGA chose to specialise its consultants in all techniques, enabling a better structured enterprise. MEGA attracts new talent on a continuous basis; bringing a unique expertise and perspective to your Enterprise Architecture and business improvement programmes to make them a visible success. Governance, Risk and Compliance As it is often the case with emerging disciplines, the technical solution takes precedence over a true refl exion on the actual needs of the organisation. This is particularly the case for Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) initiatives whether the focus comes from risk management, compliance or internal audit. On these topics and in the continuity of its expertise, MEGA has decided to offer a complete solution covering management consultancy and software integration. This approach allows each of our customers to benefi t from management recommendations in full alignment with the reality of the software solutions, their deployment time frame and budgets. Methods and Tools The primary mission of the consultants at MEGA is to provide methods and tools to your teams in order for them to succeed in their transformation projects. We regard this as an important contribution to the overall success of your organisation. All our consultants are hired as permanent employees and meet high educational standards. They are fully trained in standard market approaches and methodologies as well as the MEGA suite of sotfware tools. With such experts on board, we can ensure they will enrich your practices with the best professional insight. 4

5 MEGA Consulting Offering Operational Excellence and Risk Management Business process excellence and optimising organisations are part of MEGA International s core business practices and have been since the origins of the company. Today, these missions fi nd a renewed motivation in the necessity to deploy internal control policies, whether imposed by regulatory constraints or driven by the company s own governance. MEGA consultants are specifi cally involved in assignments such as : Company business strategy formalisation Business process maps and business architecture Best practices sharing and rationalisation Process optimisation and operational improvement Implementation of a business process-based governance framework Risk mapping and internal control systems Implementation of a continuous improvement capability Business continuity and disaster recovery plans Optimisation of operational performance today benefi ts from analysis and measurement tools that are fi nally adapted to actual challenges. By combining operational risk maps and Lean Six Sigma approaches, our consultants can take advantage of powerful analysis and management models. These provide the means to communicate real and tangible improvements to managers, and discuss decisions based on clear and measurable facts.

6 IT Governance and IT Systems Design At times when CIOs and IT directors are under the growing pressure of time and budget constraints, the adoption of standard practices, such as TOGAF, ITIL and CMMI, allows them to establish the foundation of an effective industrial IT function. By providing methods and management tools to the IT function, MEGA consultants help them manage the actual risks of IT systems reengineering. They specifi cally assist the following projects: 1 IT Architecture and Strategic Planning Implementation of Enterprise architecture repositories IT strategic planning and application portfolio management IT system blueprints 2 IT Governance Process-based approach to IT department management (ITIL, CMMI, TOGAF ) Selection & procurement of IT management tools: PSA, CMDB, APM... Definition and implementation of IT governance dashboards 3 IT System Design Definition and implementation of IT system design methodologies and tools (SDLC) Business requirements, functional specifications and change management Data and service architecture Application selection and invitation to tenders (ITT) 6

7 MEGA and the Defence and Security Frameworks The large defence industry players, followed by the aerospace and transportation sectors, recently joined forces to provide system engineers with effective frameworks allowing them to describe increasingly complex defence and security systems. Through international initiatives such as the NATO Architecture Framework (NAF), or local ones with the British Ministry of Defence Architecture Framework (MODAF), new standards for specifying complex system architectures have emerged. They are aligned on the most recent modelling notations provided by international normalisation bodies such as the OMG (Object Management Group). MEGA is actively engaged in the modernisation of these modelling standards both on the side of industrial consortiums as well as at the level of standard bodies. Our consultants are profi cient in these standards. They can leverage these techniques in the context of your projects, demonstrate their benefi ts to you and transfer their expertise to your teams. We cannot acknowledge an increasing complexity of modern enterprise, and at the same time imagine that implementation of IT systems can be done without modernised scalable approaches. Proper IT System architecture and design is the fi rst benefit of repository-based tools and methodologies to IT departments. Mastering those practices is a prerequisite to the controlled reduction of IT complexity sought by so many CIOs today. SUSAN WATKINS Senior Consultant, MEGA UK 7

8 Our Values Expertise MEGA Consultants are trained in modelling techniques and methods, as well as complex system analysis and architecture.

9 Your Benefits Problem Solving Identifying the true cause of a problem or diffi culty faced by a customer is a pre-requisite to its resolution. Our consultants adopt a problem solving attitude and are capable of addressing multi facetted problems, including educational, political, skills, governance and technological issues. Knowledge Transfer Transferring our skills and knowledge is one of the essential contributions of MEGA consulting duties. Our responsibilities include establishing a sustainable practice relying on methods and approaches that have to be applied in the long term once the project is complete. It is therefore critical to ensure that customer teams get the necessary competences and autonomy to maintain and further develop the capabilities in the longer term. Consulting Tool Kit MEGA consultants can take advantage of the MEGA Suite toolset anytime it is relevant for the project. The internationally awarded Suite leverages standard approaches, best practices and it produces project deliverables quicker and more consistently in comparison to classic non-tool based approaches

10 Close Working Relationships with Our Customers Business Performance Club The Business Performance Club welcomes all MEGA customers to share their experience and challenges on a regular basis. - Various club events are organised for members to debate about a pre-defi ned topic, learn from one specifi c customer project experience, or discuss with peers. - Such a customer community is a real advantage for professionals who can join a community of practitioners that are open to testimonial and best practice sharing. MEGA accumulates a unique experience on topics related to the improvement of private and public organisations; this experience comes from the large number of customer projects, in all industries (banking, insurance, telecoms, government, services, manufacturing, and energy) we have worked on.

Four different business units corresponding to the major vertical industries are directed by the Head of Consulting who is responsible for the whole production of the consulting assignments. The organisation is completed by three different competence centres to consolidate experiences depending on the nature of the project: - Enterprise architecture - Governance, risk and compliance - MEGA Suite product engineering As a result, our customers take advantage of the best practices for their projects. 10
