Regardless of your industry or growth stage, the primary purpose of employing technology is to accelerate the performance of your company's operations.
Our CIO on Demand service works with the business to manage demand for their technology needs in a timely matter. It is an ongoing advisory service for the small to mid-sized businesses in need of direction to bridge the gap between business and technology. We will help you align your IT Strategy with your Business Strategy.
This service includes:
Strategy Planning (Business & IT alignment):
To grease the wheels of demand management, the strategy-making process needs to result in a finite set of opportunities. This is accomplished by prioritizing based on some type of strategic filter. Our advisors work with your business leaders to identify the technology enabled business opportunities. We then rough out the architectural requirements, constraints and standards necessary to minimize the impact on the business.
Technology Roadmap and Budgeting:
Goal of this phase is to understand which IT investments make business sense. We will create models for Total Cost of Ownership, Return on Investment and Risk Management that relate to your short-term and long-term business strategy. Define an IT budget that supports business growth, and manage the budget in step with actual business results and perceived opportunities.
Implementation:
After establishing a roadmap and a budget, it is time to convert plans into reality. Our team will do this in a timely and cost-efficient manner. Taking advantage of our overseas team experience, you will get the best of both worlds – in-house planning and management and cost-effective implementation.
Prioritization and Sequencing:
This is the ongoing effective governance of technology within a business.
