Methods

Expert consultancy and a proven meta-model

The Field Effect deploys small teams of expert consultants with rich domain and discipline experience. TFE-Modus provides the methodological foundation upon which we base our delivery methods. Our consultants facilitate, navigate and populate the TFE-Modus meta-model, driving out an organisation specific Target Operating Model & Roadmap. We are experts at bringing business and technology together, to drive out requirements and providing you with the tools and data to analyse change benefit. Typically, a TFE team structure would include the following competencies:

• Design Authority – A target operating model specialist with rich domain expertise.
• Technical Architect – A technical specialist with expertise in defining logical & physical architectures, data modelling, systems mappings & service oriented architectures, systems fating and de-duplification.
• Business Analyst – Our business analysts are highly experienced in investment banking & consulting.
• Subject Matter Experts – a domain specialist with senior level experience
• Meta-Model – Dimensions of a Target Operating Model

Our model spans six critical operation model dimensions:

• Process and controls
• Function and technology
• Data and information
• People and actors
• Products and services
• Geography

The power of this framework is the ability to capture and link detail at the lowest level of granularity and to quickly aggregate back up to high level summaries.
