IAM Strategy

We support you in assessing the individual IAx-strategy and implementation roadmap. During the development of the overall IAM-strategy, we focus on all relevant sub-areas (IAx). Customer Identity Management or Enterprise Identity & Access Management for example. On the basis of a detailed assessment of the initial status and the individual business objectives we establish the development plan and the implementation roadmap for each IAM-discipline. For the effective anchorage the organisational, procedural, and technical measures are determined and the enabling of the employees is assured.

IAM Organization and Processes

Organizational Consulting

IPG supports you in designing the organization-structure and accompanies the establishment and continuous application of the newly defined IAM-organization. A quality test, according to the defined controls of the introduced IAM-organization and processes is conducted.

Process Design

Our advisors aid you in determining the IAM-target-processes and in the development of End-to-End modelled processes. We accompany the introduction and anchoring of new processes and review their effectiveness according to the defined KPI's.

IAM-Geschäftsrollen (RBAC)

Our advisory services encompass a variety of proven methods and tools for the introduction of business roles. Our Advisory supports you in the development of a company wide business role concept. We show you, how role projects are planed and executed effectively and how departments can be included in the modelling. Furthermore, we show you which organizational and procedural measures need to be implemented to achieve an effective role organization.

IAM Technologies and -Architectures

Our IAM Advisors support you in investigating functional and technical requirements, and aid in evaluating possible solutions. Topics like feasability and operability are crucial to our consultation, but always with the demand for automating compliance where sensible.

We get involved earlier

Optimal solutions originate where IAM-processes and organization are aligned with actual regulatory requirements and market needs, and where these are the crux of the matter for the technical implementation of an IAM-solution.

We think ahead further

Identity Management is the enabler and a requirement for the seamless integration of your clients and the digitalization of your services. We design your individual IAM solution in a forward-looking manor and according to the requirements of your business processes.

We establish a lead

The demands on Identity Management and access protection differ substantially for each business. There is no “one-size-fits-all”. We bring transparency to your needs and develope an IAx-roadmap together with you, which is based on operational, technical, and organizational circumstances, and that keeps up with your business strategy.
