The Results
The result was a tailored strategic plan aligned with the bank’s needs and the Google Cloud
Framework. It covered all stages for CCoE implementation, focusing on Google’s themes: Learn,

To gauge cloud maturity, the bank partnered with us to assess its existing technology landscape
and dependencies. We implemented a comprehensive evaluation to understand their current cloud maturity level and integrated all technologies into a unified view. This approach ensured a clear understanding of interdependencies and facilitated a governance framework focused on maximizing value through migration and modernization. The result was a strategic, value-driven cloud transition that aligned with the bank’s business goals and fostered a robust foundation for future growth.
