A major predicted cost relates to BANKSCO. Since the introduction of NEWBNK is imminent, the scope of OCM should be reduced by leaving out BANKSCO. This would enable additional funds to be available for the adoption of the ADKAR change model Using this disciplined approach for the transition of all the remaining service providers would ensure a successful and cost-effective transition to the new SIAM model

Exclude OUTSCO as they already have an established approach to service provision and have communication links in place with the other service providers This significantly reduces the scale of the OCM initiative, and therefore helps to control costs Concentrate on ensuring that the other service providers are aware of the changes, and assess their desire for success using liaison with their appointed OCM representatives.

Reduce the scope of the OCM initiative so that the commodity service providers are only made aware of the changes and how they will be affected by them Arrange for all the other service providers to nominate a dedicated OCM representative to ensure effective communication with all the remaining parties involved Undertake specific training in the cross-provider ways of working using Computer Based Training.

The scope of OCM should include all service providers and be based on a recognized change model such as ADKAR The intentions of large established providers including OUTSCO and NETSCO should be fully understood, as there might be potential conflicts of interest which need to be addressed. The OCM activities should be tailored to the characteristics of the service providers.This will assist in controlling costs
