IT
Assessment
Information Technology (IT) Assessments
is all about aligning your business, facility, resources, and budget
plans with the underlying technology assets required to support
their execution. Aligning these plans together through technology
puts you in a position of control over your acquisitions and
enabling you to locate excellent services in advance of the need.
Building a solid strategy starts starts with understanding all of
your needs. This is done by working with your people, sending
questionnaires and surveys, conducting face to face meetings, site
tours, as well as conducting detailed equipment evaluations and
reviews. Then through an ongoing iterative process, you refine this
gathered information with your organization until you have surfaced
all possible initiatives or assets that may have been overlooked.
This ensures that you deepen your understanding of the need to
obtain the most comprehensive picture possible. The deliverable
consists of a comprehensive roadmap for how and when technology
acquisitions should be undertaken.
Your
assessments should cover the following categories, if they apply to your
environment:
- Personal
Computer Equipment (including
remote laptops)
