Job Title= Exit Planning Manager

Location = Remote/ Havant

Duration= 6 Months Initially

IR35 Status: Inside

Brief Approach to Supplier Transition and Exit

• Understand the contract and contractual obligations of the incumbent supplier
• Review and understand Exit Strategy under the agreement and commence planning activities accordingly
• Focus on objectives, deliverable, timings and risk management
• Incumbent supplier should prepare functional and technical overviews in-line with their contractual obligations and update documentations, process flow charts.
• All material including knowledge articles should have been updated and reviewed by client before official hand over.
• Client should draw up comprehensive deliverable and artifacts lists which must be signed off by all parties including incumbent supplier, incoming supplier and key client stakeholders to ensure the approach is understood by all parties.
• The client should validate the incumbent prepared documents and materials and prepare a backup for keeping the lights on during transition.
• Knowledge Transfer is a critical stage in the transition process, and it should (subject to agreement) include the incoming supplier with SMEs from incumbent supplier and client.
• Incoming vendor should bring in the right set of tools, framework and experienced and qualified individuals that can help assess, plan and prepare for the transition.
• Client’s engagement and lead is critical during the transition. This ensures the incumbent vendor passes on the documented and required knowledge to the incoming vendor, monitoring and take control if things are not going in the right direction.
• Record the sessions: There is no substitute to in person knowledge transfer. And even more important is to record, preferably video record, these sessions. This serves two purposes – to gain detailed understanding of the topics by going through it time and again and to enable creation of induction programs for new consultants on-boarding
• Replay sessions: Documentation of acquired knowledge and replay/presentation back to the client demonstrates the knowledge and also bring in confidence to both the client and incoming vendor.
• Common Reporting Framework: Establish common daily reporting mechanism to ensure that there is no ambiguity in status across client, incumbent and incoming vendors
• Treat Transition as an investment not as a cost: Be rest assured both the client and incoming vendor will reap benefits in the medium to long term
• Friendly, Collaborate and Flexible: Create a friendly atmosphere towards the incumbent. Demonstrate collaborative working and flexibility during the transition from the incumbent. This warmth goes a long way to extract the best out of transition from incumbent personnel
