IT VP, Senior Supplier
What we did
Management of the production of a single major contract, consisting of two drafting variations to address per-vendor requirements
Management of the selection and award process and final contract drafting (single vendor) through to contract execution
An agreement based on "as-a-Service" constructs rather a traditional input driven and resource based model
Pipefish managed the definition of all services, service levels working across dozens of IT service owners and both internal and external legal counsel
From selection of the final two candidate vendors, the customer needed the contract finalised within six weeks
External counsel estimated duration was more likely 12x weeks
Internal service line owners had limited time to commit to the activity
Pipefish applied an Agile approach to the contract preparation and the agreement was prepared within the required six weeks
Pipefish were subsequently awarded Programme Management of the post-execution transition phase including a comprehensive range of service-by-service transitions and associated organisational change
Delivered outcomes
Contract development and execution over a very short duration.
