Did you know that Transition management practitioners have suggested that over two thirds of failed outsourcing relationships are due to transition-related challenges?

  – Beulen, Tiwari, van Heck, 2011

The lack of specific literature on this subject, has led to many misconceptions, starting with vocabulary, which can sometimes lead to misunderstandings when discussing transition with non-experts.

An IT Outsourcing relationship always starts with a Transition, which is typically a complex program composed of several interrelated projects which can affect nearly every key aspect of the client business.

The goal of this webinar is to give you a high level understanding of transitions challenges in the context of an IT Outsourcing relationship.

Stephane will first describe the key phases of an IT Outsourcing and the associated vocabulary. We will then focus on the Transition, looking at what makes it different from many IT projects.

Presenter: Stephane Chalvin (LinkedIn profile) PMP is a French citizen that lived in the USA and UK. He has over 20 years of international IT experience. He has been leading IT Outsourcing Transitions and Transformations for large global accounts since 2006, most recently as a Transition Director for a global IT service provider.
