Driving IT Consolidation through a Multi-Vendor Transition & DaaS Model

Client Overview

The organization operated a large and complex enterprise IT ecosystem supporting entertainment platforms across multiple African markets. To improve operational efficiency and simplify vendor management, the business aimed to transition from multiple vendors to a centralized strategic delivery partner model.
