Typical Approach

This approach is based on years of best practice and execution, but we don't believe in cookie-cutter. We tailor the approach based on company size, maturity of IT operations and level of perceived or potential risk/gaps.

Kick Off & Alignment

Understand your business, trends in your industry, your goals, and your needs.

Document your current tech stack and vendors.

Discovery, Interviews & IT Ops Review

2-3 Weeks

Internal interviews assessing service delivery satisfaction and needs. External interviews with vendors as required & IT ops review.

All interviews are conducted in a confidential manner. Findings are aggregated and anonymized.

Gaps & Opportunities

2 Weeks

Analyze and summarize the findings and gaps by order of perceived impact on the business, covering people, processes and technology.

Roadmap

1 Week

Develop the Roadmap with recommended sequencing priorities, dependencies and relative level of effort.

This will be your blueprint for resourcing and planning implementation.
