TRANSFORMANT SERVICES
If you need strategy, design or execution in any aspect of Digital Transformation or Global Business Services, then call us.
At Transformant, we want to help you translate your digital and shared services vision into implementation. Where we differ from other global consultancies is in the choice of our executive consultant experience. All our resources are seasoned practitioners who have decades of hands-on experience in execution. That enables us to bridge between board-of-director level strategy, and down-in-the-trenches execution.
We take pride in shaping the digital and GBS industries. We are happy to chat in these areas and to help you make connections, even if we do not formally service your specific needs.
CONSULTING
Advising boards and CXOs on creating practical strategies on digital and shared services transformations. More importantly, committing to outcomes.
GBS CONSULTING
Your GBS organization could be your biggest asset in driving digital transformation in your enterprise!
That’s right! Most organizations waste the opportunity to create new digital business models, create new smart products and create uber-efficient business operations by pigeon-holing their GBS organizations as low-cost, business operations providers.
Call us to learn how to set up your GBS correctly to deliver not just low costs, but also sales growth and digital innovation.
DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION CONSULTING
If the Fourth Industrial Revolution is such as existential threat to businesses then why do 70% of all digital transformations fail?
Leaders are very aware of the threat and conversely the opportunity to get ahead of competition. The issue isn’t in awareness, it’s in the question of how exactly to approach a very complicated transformation successfully.
That’s where we come in. We bring in proven checklist methodologies for digital transformation, that are based on the famed airline and medical industry approaches.

SAMPLE TOPICS
FUTURE OF GLOBAL BUSINESS SERVICES:
Your organization’s future business model itself may depend on the emerging fourth stage of evolution of Shared Services. The fourth stage makes the leap from Shared Services as a cost optimization engine, to being a digital business model creator for the whole enterprise. It needs to be a core part of every company’s business strategy.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE:
You are already a major consumer of AI technologies in your personal life. It’s the application of AI to disruptive business models and internal operations that’s a challenge for leaders. Where do you start? And how to you avoid getting burned by being on the bleeding edge?
EXPONENTIAL ORGANIZATIONS:
An Exponential Organization, as defined by futurist Salim Ismail, is one whose impact is disproportionally large – at least 10 times larger – compared to its peers because it uses new organizational techniques that leverage exponential technologies. These organizations are in the best position to thrive in the coming digital era.
SUCCESSFUL DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION:
Digital Transformation is the modern-day fight to survive the existential threat of digital disruption caused by the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Half the companies on the Fortune 500 list will turn over in the next decade. 70% of all digital transformations fail, but we can address that with a few key disciplines. Learn how you can turn this issue into an opportunity.
WORKSHOPS
In half-day or full-day workshops, Tony Saldanha talks the organization through not just why transformation is critical, but also uses simple models and real-life examples to help create plans to get it done.
SAMPLE WORKSHOPS
CURRENT STATE ORGANIZATION ASSESSMENT:
The biggest challenge in any transformation is usually internal to the organization (e.g. prevailing culture, leadership readiness, diligence in execution, strategy sufficiency, etc.) We bring in external insights to drive a common internalization on the current state, before you start to strategize on the future..
BUILD EXECUTION ROADMAPS:
The most common reason for transformation failure is the lack of discipline in execution. Thus, exciting transformations don’t scale, organizational immune systems overcome disruptive changes, and insufficient successes don’t make a dent in the P&L. Create proven execution roadmaps, with clear metrics that create strong accountability for results.
GET GOING ON THE FUTURE STATE:
Get going! This workshop uses disruption examples from a spectrum of industries and public sector arenas to demonstrate that the future is already here; it’s just spread unevenly!
It builds a common understanding and commitment in senior leadership teams to sponsor very specific transformation efforts.
BUILD TRANSFORMATION STRATEGY:
The challenge in most transformations is in confusing activity with sufficient results. Anecdotal successes, one-off pilot successes, isolated executions and promising new technologies are no substitute for wall-street results. That takes disciplined strategy. Build a solid, sufficient transformation strategy.
SOLUTION DEVELOPMENT
Disruptive solution development is to regular software development like Amazon is to a traditional physical store. They are both related, but it needs much more advanced technologies, ecosystems and business models. Get expert help here.
10X SOLUTIONS
Creating 10X solutions systemically takes new technologies, new ecosystems of partners, reimagination of work processes, and entirely new methodologies for execution and immune system management.
We help you -
Staff the right people in the right role.
Set up the ecosystem of vendors and startups .
Design the operating model for the team.
Select initial pilots after assessment of possibilities.
Set up a program board.
And help build solutions if needed.
LOW-CODE NO-CODE SOLUTIONS
In today’s disruptive digital environment, it’s impossible for large company systems and solutions to compete with IT capabilities of digitally native startups.
Unless….
… you can build scalable, disruptive solutions within days and within fractions of costs of traditional large company million-dollar and multi-year projects.
NoCode/LowCode application development enables building software 5X to 100X faster than by using traditional technologies and is also future-proof.
MATURITY ASSESSMENT SERVICES
The first stage to leading change is to assess current reality. Better yet, get an external viewpoint from external practitioners who have been there, done that. We provide packaged assessments for digital transformation and global business services.
DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION ASSESSMENT
The Digital Transformation Assessment service is a 1-4 week exercise. This product takes the senior executives through an eye-opening journey on what “good” looks like in the digital world, and follows up with several days of interviews of all stakeholders involved in digital transformation. The end-result is the clearest, most transparent, extremely practical guidebook on what needs to change for successful digital transformation.
GBS ASSESSMENT
A strong GBS strategy can spell the difference between world-class results and less than average ones. But, is your stated strategy the same as what your organization is executing? And, are your peers and business units playing against your stated game plan?
We assess on-the-ground reality on elements including “On-the-ground” GBS Strategy, Governance, People Empowerment, Agility, Customer Feedback, Process Strength and Technology choices.
The outcome is the strongest foundation you can get for your transformation plans.
