Optimizing Technology Delivery for a
Leading Taxation Services Firm span>
Addressing Skill Disparities and Quality Gaps in Rapid Tech Deployments
Business context
A leading taxation services firm with over $1 billion in revenue faced the challenge of delivering a massive technology agenda within a short time frame. Despite ramping up PODs (Product Oriented Delivery teams), the firm struggled with disparate levels of skills and knowledge across teams. This disparity, particularly in Quality Engineering & Assurance (QEA), resulted in increased time to market, lower say/do ratios, and quality leakages, highlighting the need for a strategic approach to enhance skills and streamline processes.
- Massive tech agenda to be delivered in a short time span
- PODs were ramped up but with disparate levels of skills and knowledge
- QEA (Quality engineering & assurance) – major gap area, leading to higher time to market, sub-par say/do ratios, quality leakages
