Many organisations lack an IT strategy even though information technology influences almost every aspect of a modern organisation. The purpose of an IT strategy is to align information technology planning and implementation with organisational goals.
CIOV has the specialised expertise to provide formal IT Strategy Plans for organisations large and small. As with any strategic initiative, the endorsement from top management within the organisation is a key to its successful adoption.
The development an IT Strategy starts with the understanding of an organisations culture through IT Strategy workshops. These workshops with staff and management involve working through and understanding organisational mission, vision and values.
The output of an IT strategy includes
- documenting organisational objectives
- identification of specific technologies
- a prioritised technology plan
- implemented in a systematic way
A formal IT Strategic Plan will set out a clear strategy to implement IT improvements and provides an enhanced technology roadmap for the future.
CIOV will scope out and compile a formal written document as the IT Strategic Plan. This plan can then be used as the technology ‘road map’ for an organisation to plan and budget for the practical technology improvements designed to deliver on organisational objectives.
