München: Cyber Security Fatigue

Cybersecurity ist längst kein reines IT-Thema mehr – sie betrifft das gesamte Unternehmen. Doch während die Bedrohungslage zunimmt, geraten viele Security-Verantwortliche an ihre Belastungsgrenzen: zwischen 24/7-Verantwortung, wachsenden Anforderungen und dem ständigen Innovationsdruck.

Köln: CIO & CISO, das Rezilienz-Power-Duo

IT-Betrieb und Cybersicherheit stehen heute unter extremem Druck: steigende Komplexität, wachsende regulatorische Anforderungen (NIS2, DORA, KRITIS), chronische Ressourcenknappheit – und gleichzeitig eine Bedrohungslage, die keine Verzögerungen duldet. Trotzdem agieren viele IT- und Security-Teams noch immer in Silos. Die Folge: ineffiziente Abläufe, Tool-Wildwuchs, langsame Reaktion auf Vorfälle und unklare Verantwortlichkeiten.

Les Rencontres: La dette technique : Un défi stratégique pour les entreprises

La dette technique est comparable à la négligence des réparations d'une maison. Ignorer un toit qui fuit peut faire gagner du temps aujourd'hui, mais cela pourrait conduire à l'effondrement du plafond plus tard. Pour remédier à la dette technique, il faut trouver et réparer ces fuites dès maintenant et mettre en place un plan d'entretien de la maison afin qu'elle soit prête pour les extensions futures. Pour résoudre ces problèmes, il faut définir des priorités stratégiques, communiquer clairement avec les parties prenantes et établir une feuille de route à long terme pour la modernisation. Cet événement se déroulera entièrement en français.

DOMO Chemicals entrusts PwC with sales and marketing integration

In 2020, DOMO Chemicals acquired the European Performance Polyamides Business from chemical giant Solvay. That meant bringing together two different sales forces, both using different processes and customer relationship management (CRM) systems. To help it fully leverage the acquisition, DOMO Chemicals looked for a partner that could help it successfully integrate the two businesses and increase synergies to enable it to accelerate its growth.

Making one plus one equal three

DOMO Chemicals was specifically looking to integrate the sales and marketing teams to better position it to grow its business both in the short term, and with a longer-term view. For all its products, tools and processes, the company looks for sustainable solutions which its customers can trust. The integration involved the design of a new organisational chart, the drafting of a new commercial strategy for the expanded firm, the introduction of new standardised sales processes and the selection and implementation of a new digital sales management and CRM tool. The ultimate goal was to enable DOMO Chemicals to effectively expand its geographic base and bring new products to market, especially sustainable grades, based on its market-leading TECHNYL brand.

A single version of the truth

Having worked hard to get to know DOMO Chemicals, understand the firm and its ambitions, PwC was able to help the company decide on the most appropriate CRM tool. Salesforce.com, the solution chosen, isn't only ideal for sales and marketing, but can be used by other departments, offering the company one single version of the truth in a state-of-the-art system. PwC’s also working on the integration of other parts of the business too to secure a complete organisational transformation. The result will offer greater and more valuable insights for more efficient and effective reporting. And allow DOMO Chemicals to be better able to leverage CRM data for management purposes.

 
 Committed to project success

One of the key reasons that DOMO Chemicals opted to work with PwC for this crucial mission was based on the experience it had had during the acquisition process. The client was confident that PwC could deliver the right skills, experience, attitude and commitment to the project and help assure its success. We also demonstrated our commitment to the project, by tying our fee for the work to the resulting increase in DOMO Chemical’s EBITA (earnings before interest, taxes and amortisation), making it a true partnership.

Embark on a culinary journey through the ever-evolving world of digital leadership with our third edition of the CIONET Cookbook: Recipes for Digital Success. Unveiling the intricate trilemma faced by today’s Master Chefs, our trailblazing European CIOs address a challenge at the nexus of customer interests, digital transformation strategies, and IT modernisation. Their secret? Synchronising the gearing between customer, business, and technology to create a frictionless movement through the digital landscape.

The CIONET Cookbook uses the analogy of a five-star restaurant to explain the importance of optimally integrated technology, with the CIO as Master Chef. In order to provide the best service to its customers, a top restaurant must have the right atmosphere, an inviting menu, a well-equipped kitchen, talented and committed front-of-house and kitchen staff and smooth-running processes that ensure an enjoyable experience for diners.
