Today, organisations are focused on the interoperability of technology to help dismantle traditional silos and foster a unified, intelligent ecosystem; ultimately providing value faster to customers and citizens whilst hopefully driving improved profitability.

Why KPMG: orchestrating transformation with strategic partnerships
Today, the scope of outcomes, rapid pace of change and complex nature of technology has created a landscape where the required depth of skills surpasses the capability of any single provider. This complexity demands a collaborative approach that must be meticulously orchestrated to meet the client’s requirements.
As clients shift to strategic partnerships from traditional vendor relationships, deeper collaboration is expected from providers, so they can better understand the industry, challenges, and goals. This is especially true when it comes to digital transformation initiatives, which require a strategic approach and well-integrated technology ecosystem.
Strategic partnerships encourage providers to deliver holistic solutions that address multiple aspects of their operations, rather than isolated, one-off fixes. This level of integration is crucial for cultivating a cohesive transformation strategy, delivering comprehensive business outcomes across the organisation.
