Information Technology (IT) Strategy and Planning:
Our practices focus on enabling IT strategy and transformation to support and enable business to grow in line with the overall organization's business strategy through initiatives that drive improved efficiency and effectiveness. The major strengths of our offerings include integrating business and information technology processes to allow for continuous assessment and necessary adjustments in IT strategy in response to new opportunities and changing market conditions.
Using StratTech©, our unique Technology Strategy planning approach, we work with IT and Business leaders in identification and definition of IT strategy that create and sustain value for business through technological investments.
The framework used in this methodology examines technological investments in the context of realization of business benefits rather than an individual program or portfolio view. Furthermore, our tools and methodology enable the identification of key metrics in the context of a business that can be used to monitor the effectiveness of a desired technology strategy to support the business. The methodology also addresses the introduction of processes needed to support the effective measurement capability of these metrics.
Our Multi-Year planning frameworks and IT process models set in business value contexts help translate the strategic intent to a series of initiatives that can be governed and managed effectively.
Our proprietary tools will help monitor and make appropriate changes for future plans, while adhering to the strategic objectives of the organization
IT Office Transformation: Recognizing change is never easy; our practitioners work with clients to reshape technology operations and organization to achieve the new vision for IT in a collaborative, consensus based approach. Building IT into a business within a business by instituting world-class practices focused on pragmatic outcomes is an area of emphasis for this aspect of our practice.
IT Governance: We provide frameworks and support services to establish different processes to enable the institutionalizing of the capacity to oversee the formulation of IT strategy and plans in the context of a business with business leaders actively overseeing the governance aspects of technology management. We also provide advisory and support services to develop and implement, and oversee initiatives concerning IT operations to minimize risk, maximize return, and build current and future value.
IT Value Management: : Formalizing the tools and processes needed to bring fiscal discipline to the IT function, enabling clients to run IT as a business is another service we provide in our practice. The frameworks and methodology ensure easy integration of IT budgeting activities and charge back models in the context of business budget cycles. The practice offerings emphasize an increase of the transparency of IT costs and performance. This allows the businesses to understand the value of what it is buying and to facilitate proper economic trade-offs between IT and non-IT spending.
