Join us as we explore the intersection of outsourcing and cloud delivery platforms, focusing specifically on adding cloud delivery solutions to existing legacy deals. In this session, we will leverage the results of Baker & McKenzie’s recent cloud computing survey to explore trends in this emerging area. What should parties consider when adding cloud delivery components to a legacy IT outsourcing deal? What are buyers concerns and what are some practices that may address these concerns? Is it as easy as adding a change order or do you need to think about the deeper contract structure and risks related to the cloud? What is the process to follow for supplementing legacy outsourcing arrangements with cloud applications without exposing the deal to undue risk?
Topics in this session included:
- Best practices for adding cloud architecture to existing legacy deals
- Key risks in incorporating cloud architecture into deals
- Opportunities afforded by adding cloud architecture to deals
- Cost savings associated with cloud architecture deals
