Serving over 1.5 million customers and processing around 500,000 transactions daily, the bank is known for its customer-centric approach and robust financial products. However, the bank's legacy IT system, implemented in the early 1990s, has become outdated, leading to increased downtime, slower transaction processing times, and higher maintenance costs.

Then, present the final plan to gain his buy-in, ensuring a smooth transition without disrupting critical operations. - Successfully negotiate a phased migration plan with Peter Williams. - Address Peter's concerns and ensure his critical workflows are protected. - Present the final migration plan to gain Peter's support. - Keep the digital transformation project on track and ensure stakeholder support.
