2022 — 2023Porsche AG

A future-ready IT organisation.

Porsche is accelerating its digital transformation by growing IT and business together cross-functionally. Project-oriented IT becomes an agile, product-oriented organisation along value streams.

The question

How does corporate IT evolve from supplier to active shaper of the digital transformation, agile, product-oriented and cross-functional with the business?

Our answer

Together with Porsche, we laid the foundation for the shift from a project-oriented IT to an agile, product-oriented and cross-functionally integrated organisation. The entire IT portfolio, including digital customer solutions, will in future be organised along value streams. The delivery and operations organisation works in a product-oriented way based on SAFe, extended with Porsche-specific elements, with DevOps wherever in-house value creation is high, and a decentralised architecture model with strong central governance.
