OATI Consulting assists clients with the development of trading infrastructure gap analysis in order to identify and remediate gaps between strategic business requirements and current systems infrastructure.

• Gain an understanding of the business strategy, markets and products, organization structure, growth expectations, and current supporting infrastructure
• Develop and document “as-is” business processes and system maps
• Gain an understanding of business objectives and the extent to which current systems and processes support achieving these objectives
• Identify and prioritize functionality, process and infrastructure gaps impacting current or planned business activities
• Develop plans clarifying future state and projects to close the gap

Some typical outputs of a Gap Analysis include:

• Alternative scenarios of applications infrastructure and process approaches that can support the business vision, with high-level strengths and weaknesses for consideration.
• Business process “to-be” documentation.
• Recommendations for short-term, medium-term, and long-term implementation projects to close the gaps
• Business cases and cost estimates
• Project plan and supporting documents
