REXAM - IT Restructuring Case Study
British multi-billion pound packaging business, Rexam Plc faced a critical business event in its history when the business needed to migrate its Data Centres to a new location in the UK.
Timescales were tight and Rexam’s VP of IT for Beverage Cans Europe & Asia required an expert IT programme director to lead the first phase of the complex project. This originally covered three lines of business, glass, plastics and beverage cans in 13 countries, together with the core PLC business systems.
Intramezzo delivered a Senior Interim within 14 days. Jon Upfold took little time to agree the commercials and finalise the designs. From start to finish the project took eighteen months to complete, transferring the Data Centre to a Hewlett Packard-hosted facility in very good order. Along the way this included Rexam divesting the glass line of business, adding a layer of challenge and complexity not expected at the outset. Having assembled a strong and integrated project team across Rexam and HP, Jon developed the strategic vision to build a platform designed to support planned business growth to 2012 and beyond. The second phase is now under way and Jon has established a new Project Office Management framework to support this.
