Gartner Research is the only IT research informed by both the technology end user and provider’s perspectives. We use our research as the basis for our Consulting solutions, methodologies and tools; and, we leverage our research and our industry leading analysts, as needed, throughout our Consulting engagements. So, when our clients buy Gartner Consulting, they are buying Gartner Research ■Articulating a clear ICT Value Proposition that is framed such that cloud opportunities are highlighted appropriately is a foundational pillar in approving and executing change. Without evidence to secure informed consent to an updated ICT Value Proposition there is a danger that Cloud opportunities are missed, or pursued for inappropriate reasons ■A clear view of what changes to make to ensure the organisation is better able to recognise, evaluate, decide and execute on Cloud initiatives (and the rationale for making such changes) Gartner Service Definition — CTO and ICT Executive Summary Benchmark for Cloud-Based Services

Therefore, as there is no risk to the client and no break in service that will affect the client experience, there is no policy required Service Migration ■There is no need for a Service Migration plan given the nature of the service under discussion.

Gartner’s process does not rely on any individual’s knowledge of the client IT organization, cost base.

Gartner’s process involves guiding the client staff through the baseline activities, either through workshop or through structured interview ■Gartner retains responsibility for agreeing any data collected with the client sponsor/project manager Gartner Service Definition — CTO and ICT Executive Summary Benchmark for Cloud-Based Services
