The global recession means one thing: everyone expects more out of existing IT investments. Even if budgets are cut. Is there any escape from this madness?
Fortunately, yes. Many projects are being canceled left and right, but projects that increase access, economy, and usefulness are thriving. And key technologies, such as remote desktops and virtualization, can reduce system deployment and operation costs.
Although the benefits are real, these projects have a drawback: they introduce change. While sometimes we fear change, managed change is necessary for a successful IT department. Even in a recession.
Left Brained Geeks offers technical project management, essentially a CIO on Call, to support IT projects. Not everyone needs this type of service. Will it benefit you? Yes, if the business meets some criteria:
The business depends on IT for accounting, customer service, or some other critical function.
The IT components of operations cannot keep up with with internal or external (or both) customer demands.
The problems are primarily technical in nature, not social or political. For the record, we consider receiving incomplete or poor results from IT a technical problem: machines work for people, not the other way around.
The organization is able, ready, and willing to make technical changes.
Lots of conditions, true. If there is a strong correlation, technical project management can help. If the correlation is not so strong, perhaps some other form of business improvement is a better solution.
Have we caught your interest? Good. Let's discuss business IT needs. What type of changes would fit best? What technology is necessary for keeping the business healthy? How will IT needs change over time? And most important, how do these changes impact people: customers and employees?
We'll need about an hour, two tops, to gather data for an executive level assessment. Following this, we'll provide a proposal for going forward.
For some situations, the proposal will consider the entire project: statement of work, schedule, budget. For others, the proposal will consider the project's necessary stages. All this, of course, depends on the project's size.
Like what you see? Great! We'll be glad to start right away. But if not, use the data at no charge for improving the business in some other way.
So if the prospect of improving IT sounds wonderful but starting seems painful, let us help! Call or send us email today!
