TRANSCRIPT
PegaWorldVodafone is one the world’s largest Communications companies, with over 400 million customers and 90 thousand employees in over 30 countries. One of the largest markets is in Germany. Their enterprise business shows continuous growth and has become increasingly complex due to acquisitions and fragmented IT systems, and at the same time Vodafone wants to create standardization and synergies. Vodafone Germany took the approach to decouple their legacy from the business to become more agile. The lifeblood of their enterprise business is processing customer requests and orders. The “perfect order” is digitally captured, right the first time, visible, and automated. It creates a differentiated customer experience, reduced onboarding times, increased sales and operational efficiency. In this session you’ll learn how Vodafone is using Pega to deliver digital order capture, technical order fulfillment, and business process automation with case management. And you’ll learn how they’ve approached transformation using a phased, pragmatic approach that won the 2014 Gartner BPM Excellence award.

Why BPM and Pega PRPC• In Vodafone Germany the enterprise business is different from the consumer business• Consumer is “standard” business and highly automated.• Enterprise business is reusing consumer standards but highly individualized and
accordingly less automated.• The consumer systems did not fit the enterprise needs since only parts of the enterprise
processes are supported. • Simple tools (e.g. based on Excel) are used to fit the gaps between the consumer
systems. This leads to the situation that the user has to know what when and where he has to do. There is no application based workflow support.
• Enterprise IT decided to choose a BPM based approach to improve process adherence.• Pega PRPC was chosen because of the
• core functionality• “WYSIWYG” process design• the possibilities to build flexible and specialised processes• Fast software delivery capabilities

BPM overlay cross the legacy
17
• Common problem of IT landscapes:– Lots of legacy – Lack of integration– No process flows between the legacy systems– No time and no money for greenfield approach
• Vodafone’s solution approach:
Use BPM as overlay and orchestration solution to navigate and coordinate between the different legacy systems

How to solve the time & budget dilemma
• Business Idea:Full blown solution to handle all type of enterprise customer requests in a fully automated system, fully integrated into legacy.

The Big T – Step 1
21
Case overlay versus detailed automation
• Generic case process to handle all requests end to end.
• Focus on catching all request types and not on automation.
• Most steps are manual assignments which tell the user what to do in the legacy systems.
• Concentration on status aggregation of legacy processes to have one system which knows the case status and the detailed legacy status.
• Access into legacy applications using deep-links.• The consequences are, that there are initially
additional efforts because of duplicate work of the users in multiple systems.
Project ScopeStep 1
The Big T – Step 2
22
Case overlay versus detailed automation
• Build specific case processes for the most important processes.Importance could be based on numbers, duration, pain, quality, …
• Automate single assignments by integration into legacy
• Introduce new interfaces to the legacy
The Big T – “Final” Step
23
Case overlay versus detailed automation
• Build more specific case processes
• Automate more assignments by integration into legacy
• Replace legacy functionality by BPM functionality.
• Not all steps must be automated!

Business Integration
34
• The first character in BPM is business• BPM projects will always have a big business impact, the way
how business is working will change.• Projects introducing BPM software are not IT projects.• Start with process definition and business alignment before
defining software requirements.• Business have to be integrated into the project from the first
step of requirement gathering over the testing into the final business transformation and rollout.
Agility against legacy and waterfall
35
• It’s a dilemma • Normally the Pega process of DCO’s is the perfect approach to
deliver the software in an agile way.• Without a company culture of delivering software in an agile way
pushing agile will lead to problems.• In Vodafone Germany waterfall is established for the
project/budgeting processes and for the legacy development.• We now use the DCO approach to write the specification in an agile
way. Only when the specification is finished / signed by business we start the software development (which could be done agile again).

What would I suggest?
37
• Business, Business, Business!!! (From an IT-Perspective)• Processes, processes, processes!!!• Don’t use automation as the main benefit, concentrate on
process execution.Execution before Automation
• Train the Pega methodology before you start.Training is needed for business and IT AND management.
• Build a “Center of Excellence” / “Competence Group” as early as possible.
Start small and grow later
• Opening with the Vodafone context of strategy, transformation approach and collaboration with Pega in current program and other programs(eTOP, BPA)
• Talk about the reason for change Digital Order project; lost orders, blocked order, slow order cycle time, etc
• Describe what you have built for Digital order; working with existing industrial systems to create a better end result
• Explain why Pega was the best solution. You can go into alternatives that you evaluated.• Explain the different upstream systems/channels etc. Explain issue with orders from
upstream systems.• Discuss how you are driving the business transform to uptake the new solution.• Describe value in terms of dollars or time saved. If you don’t have actuals then you can
use expected results.• Discuss future plans or phases of program• Finishing up with the lessons learnt and some ideas of what you might have done
differently if you knew then what you know now.
