The document outlines a transformational framework to move an organization from its current state to a future state. It discusses identifying the need for change and approving a program initiation. A gap analysis is then conducted to analyze the differences between the current and future states. The framework includes discovering requirements, validating and prioritizing them, packaging them into solutions, testing and accepting the solutions, and delivering the transformed future state.

Circular Economy is here to stay. From an environmental aspect its the right thing to do, but more important there is an enormous economic value to capture. Reducing risks of price volatility, creating better customer relationships, capturing value over the lifespan of a product are a couple of advantages that Circular Economy can deliver.
The key technologies and capability shifts that are supporting a transformation from a linear to a circular business model are based on an extensive research by Accenture among 125 circular pioneers. The results were presented at the CircularEconomy conference in Rotterdam. For questions: Feel free to reach out!

Vortrag auf der IA Konferenz 2016 in Berlin: Was muss ein digitales Produkt wirklich leisten, um die gesteckten Ziele zu erreichen? User Story Mapping hilft, sich dieser Frage strukturiert zu nähern und Lücken im Produkt oder Überflüssiges ebenso wie erfolgskritische Key Features frühzeitig zu identifizieren. Anhand von Fallstudien und Beispielen zeige ich praxisnah, wie eine pragmatische Herangehensweise inklusive benötigter Vorlagen und möglicher methodischer Fallstricke aussehen kann.

Operations As-a-Service - The Untapped OpportunityRussell Ives
Operations-as-a-Service (OaaS) is
the logical culmination of a set of business and technology trends that have been converging for several years. Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) and IT Outsourcing (ITO) began in the 1990’s but evolved significantly over time, becoming more commoditised, incorporating sophisticated platforms and bundling more and more services.
More recently, sourcing has blended with various forms of As-a-Service, most notably via integrated, cloud-based applications, or Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), alongside increasing levels of
IT infrastructure delivered as-a-Service (IaaS). Advancements in data processing and computing intelligence (including, for example, predicative analytics and robotic process automation) have also become fundamental - allowing for a new class of data-driven business insights. This overall combination of proven business process management disciplines and intelligent, cloud- driven technologies is now known as Operations-as-a-Service.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
