The project was about to examine all the running IT applications in client data center and suggest which applications could be retained or re-engineered or phased out. The next activity was to align To-Be solution and ministry's priorities & initiatives with respect to Oman e-governance strategy and framework. The next part was to formulate the To-Be state design for the entire ministry. It would be defined based on available skill, Infrastructure, Integration complexities, Application features with associated technology & its architecture. Architecture design included system architecture, security architecture, logical architecture, deployment architecture. PwC team interacted with key IT stakeholders in the department and came up with a filled up questionnaire. PwC team had formulated a As-Is state report based on the inputs received and envisaged To-Be stage architecture. The next phase was to define right KPIs and SLAs and vendor selection through a RFP.

They were Business & Operational Environment, Security Concerns, Legal and Regulatory Concerns, User Interface & Communication, Database, Skill, Infrastructure, Integration, Application features with associated technology & its architecture. Architecture included system architecture, security architecture, logical architecture, deployment architecture. PwC team interacted with key IT stakeholders in the department and came up with a filled up questionnaire. Each and every application was given a cloud readiness number based on the report. The end result was a report where we havegiven a 3-waved approach and segregated applications in different waves. 1st wave contained easily movable applications and 3rd wave contained most challenging applications for movement.
