Over 30 days, we undertake a four-stage process to gain an in-depth understanding of your business needs and develop an actionable plan for achieving your objectives.
IT Is Personal
IT isn’t one-size-fits-all. It’s personal. To maximize its impact and ensure critical requirements are met, your technology solutions must be tailored to the unique needs of your business and industry. That requires an intimate understanding of your business, goals, and people. It demands a partner that takes the time to get IT right.
To deliver on that promise, we start every engagement with our Foundational IT Assessment. A deep dive into your systems, processes, and practices, it lays the groundwork to turn IT into a strategic tool for near- and long-term success.
The Foundational IT Assessment
COLLABORATE
Discovery Call
To set the stage for the engagement and ensure we choose the right path, we ask questions about your business, team, roles, and current tech.
Team Survey
To give your team a voice, we send a simple survey to better understand what’s working, what’s not, and what areas need improvement.
Executive Interview
During an in-depth interview with senior leadership, we uncover your organization’s issues, goals, and desired outcomes.
COLLECT
Initial Site Visit
A senior engineer will visit your office(s) to survey and document your tech and how it’s configured – and in the process learn more about your IT setup than you’d care to know.
Network Discovery
We search for anything connected to your network, then install a discovery PC and specialized software on your PCs, servers, and network equipment to create an inventory of your IT assets.
DEVELOP
Comprehensive IT Audit
Incredibly thorough, our audit looks for 150+ IT best practices to identify every area that needs attention. Leaving no stone unturned, we review everything from major security risks and your backup and disaster recovery to cloud products and applications and how effectively your team is using digital communication and collaboration tools.
Internal Planning and Analysis
With data in hand, our team reviews your goals and challenges in detail and develops a plan of attack to get your IT systems to where they need to be to meet your objectives.
DELIVER
Presentation
The final step is an in-depth presentation of our findings in which you’ll get more insight into your IT in two hours than most consultants provide in a year.
Technology Roadmap
The presentation features a detailed roadmap that includes your goals and a prioritized plan that explains our vision for how technology can help achieve them.
Capital and Operating Budget
Creating customized IT capital and operating budgets for the next 2+ years, we provide full transparency into the costs of executing our plan.
