1. Executive Summary
ICX is pleased to offer our technical and financial proposal in response to Jos
Electricity Distribution Company (JED) request for proposal for the Provision of
Short Term Information Technology (IT) Infrastructure and Consultancy
Services – Business Analysis and Requirement Gathering.

The goal of the business analysis project is to do a current state assessment of

JED’s business processes (As-IS business model), which will provide the basis
for an appraisal for process improvement leading to a future state (T0-Be
business Model) – to be driven by technology. These project goals are
described in more detail in Section 2 of this document.

Working with JED project team, our proposed implementation strategy includes:

 Seminar on Business Process Excellence (BPE), which will be

organized for JED’s Executive Management to highlight the topical
nature of process leadership and the role of management in attaining
this.

 Process analysis and design training for operational knowledge

workers (Subject Matter Experts), representing all functional business
units within JED.

 IT infrastructure needs assessments and skills audit, to identify gaps

and develop a technology roadmap.

 Workflow survey and documentation of current business processes,

key actors and their pain points.

 Joint Application Development (JAD) sessions, to elicit and document

business requirements/needs for the acquisition of IT systems that is
needed to support JED’s business operations.

This project is estimated to be completed and delivered in not more than sixty
(60) working days (weekends and holidays excluded). For more information
about the project plan, team and work products, please refer to section 3 of this
document.

We believe that JED will benefit immensely from our industry expertise, thought
leadership, cutting edge methodology and our past experience delivering
projects of this nature to organizations across Nigeria.

2. Introduction

2.1 Background

Jos Electricity Distribution Company (JED) is embarking on a program of

Information Technology (IT) development initiatives to modernize its business
operations, improve internal work processes and provide staff with requisite IT
tools that will enable it to meet growing customer expectations on reliability and
qualitative service delivery.

In modern organizations, IT plays an increasingly important role in enabling

business processes and proper deployment of IT across the enterprise can
substantially boost competitiveness and profitability.

However, IT projects that impact the whole organization can be very expensive.
Not only do organizations have to decide whether or not to green-light an
expensive project, sometimes they have to choose between several big ticket
projects all vying for the same scarce resources.

We understand the challenges that JED faces in trying to align IT investments

with its strategic business goals. JED is seeking the service of an innovative
technology partner to help take a holistic look at the organization’s Business
Processes, conduct IT project requirement gathering exercise, and provide IT
advisory service on its planned technology deployment and Business Process
Re-engineering (BPR). The end goal is an environment that integrates
business processes across all functional business units but leverages IT assets
to meet the company’s needs and delivers a positive return on investment
(ROI).

This is a major challenge. The IT strategy must meet JED business needs for
today and deliver a foundation that is extendable to meet future requirements.
Considerations for the strategy must include the development of human
capacity to take advantage of the huge business benefits that IT offers, reduce
IT cost to the business, and seamlessly absorbs new business needs – within a
conceptualized, easy to manage technology platform.

associated with the implementation of IT solutions

6. Appendix A: Business Analysis and Requirement

Gathering Vision Statement
For several years, the Nigeria power sector was plagued with series of challenges;
old and dilapidated power generating plants/Transmission and Distribution network,
financial performance/lack of investment of funds in the power sector, low
institutional capacity, high technical and non-technical losses, power maintenance
and lack of transparency.

In an effort to address these challenges the Federal Government of Nigeria, took a

bold step at reforming the power sector by handing it over to private ownership with
the goal of increasing commercial viability of the power sector, ensuring fair tariffs to
all end users, increasing access to electricity, improving efficiency by increasing tariff
collection, reducing technical and non-technical losses, reducing cost, improving
private sector investment and customer service delivery.

Information Technology (IT) is a key component for addressing some of these

challenges; JED is taking the needed action, to make the required investment in IT,
we realise that the investment needed to transform JED into a world class electricity
distribution company is substantial. Our ultimate vision for this project is to:

 ensure that JED gains Maximum Business Value from Every IT

Investment, and
 help design a Technology Architecture that will be a model for other power
distribution companies in Nigeria

Our team is committed to working assiduously, in collaboration with JED staff; be the
JED’s go-to technology partner and see to a fruitful completion all technology
development efforts that JED intent on embarking on and we look forward to being a
part of JED transformation success story.

management which entails balancing resources, technology, business needs, and

and economic cycles as technology becomes embedded within every aspect of the
business; ICX Solutions to this approach shaping and orienting an organization on
the critical need and importance of the making top management staff in organization
to make IT decisions that would impact the business outcome of the organization.

Organizations are finding it difficult to meet the increasing demands for technology
given that resources available to fuel innovation are tighter than ever. This is due to
20 | P a g e confidential and proprietary
 JED Business Analysis and Requirement Gathering

global competition and the difficulty of managing operational costs associated with
legacy systems and the buying frenzy of the late ‘90s. The impact of these trends on
organizations is significant, as reflected in research carried out by ICX solutions top
management staff that provide such consultancy services; which also identifies the
top barriers to success of businesses.

In ICX, we define Demand management as the process of allocating limited capital

and human resources to the overall benefit of the enterprise while improving the
relationships among IT and its business partners. When fully implemented, demand
management provides executives the information and capabilities to understand IT
costs, evaluate potential investments and convert IT-enabled investments into
business results. In a nutshell, ICX has identified that demand management ensures
the right work gets Identified, funded and done.

Having Identified the barriers to success in most businesses both Public and Private
which are attributed to: -
 Overwhelming backlog of requests/projects
 Inadequate budgets
 Shortage of time for strategic thinking/planning
 Unrealistic/unknown expectations from the business
 Lack of key technical skill sets
 Overwhelming pace of technology change
 Lack of alignment between business goals/IT efforts
 Difficulty proving value of IT

been able to come up with strategies that looks into all of the above stated
challenges in line with 21st century IT Best Practices.

3.0 SYSTEM INTEGRATION AND ICT SERVICES MANAGEMENT

As global business strategies place a new emphasis on growth, organizations

understand that IT needs to change versus return to the way it was prior to the
economic downturn. Experts deem 80 percent of planned external IT services
spending as “necessary,” and know they need to make a move or miss the
opportunity to get back on track. At ICX we understand that operational flexibility is
required for organizations to effectively balance new opportunities for growth,
including attracting and retaining new customers, with risk and cost challenges.

4.0 INFRASTRUCTURE CONSOLIDATION AND VIRTUALIZATION

The data center infrastructure is a good place to start with any assessment because
some degree of inefficiency and waste exists in practically every IT environment.
Server rooms and datacenters still bulge with servers, storage devices, power supply
systems, cables and more. Accumulation of equipment leaves companies strapped
with high energy costs, escalating management requirements and dwindling floor
space. For companies facing data center sprawl, consolidation is often a critical step
