IT ConsultancyWe are very proud of the comprehensive IT consultancy we can provide. No
job is too small or too large and we promise to focus on the
best solution for your needs. Technology is useless unless it works for you and ultimately it should pay for itself.
Our areas of expertise include:
Project Management
By using proven Project Management techniques and procedures we can
ensure that your project is run in the most efficient manner. Staying
focused. Sticking to deadlines. Sticking to costs.
Letting someone else take over the day-to-day management of the project
allows you to concentrate on running your business, whilst utilising
someone with proven expertise project management.
We can ensure that you are fully aware of the progress (or issues) with
regular comprehensive progress reports. We can ensure that you
keep your finger on the pulse, whilst explaining any technology jargon
used and assisting with any technology decisions that need to be made.
Requirements Analysis
Documenting exactly what you need is the biggest challenge for technology
projects. If you can do this, you can be sure to get what you expect
and have paid for.
We can facilitate workshops to help your business brainstorm the 'big
picture' and subsequently drive out the detail (concept proving).
With your own 'detailed requirements document' you are free to submit your
project to multiple vendors to bid for your project (RFP - Request For
Proposal). The bids you receive can then be assessed to ensure
you select the best proposal (and of course the cheapest is not always
best!).
Creating Service Level Agreements (SLA's)
Getting the project live is only the beginning. What happens next?
Our experience with IT Service Management (we are ITIL certified) means
that we can help you define any service levels that you may need. e.g. Do
you need your website to be available 24x7? How quickly do you
need their support staff to answer your queries? To fix your queries?
Do you need daily backups? In the event of a disaster, how quickly
would your standby server be operational? Do you have any critical
deadlines or tasks? When would they notify you and who would they contact?
We can also help with any other IT consultancy tasks, including:
- Documenting your current processes and improving them (Business Process Re-engineering)
- Compiling IT strategy plans (to help move your business forward)
- Finding the best vendors and negotiating cost effective technology deals
- Reviewing your current IT position (inc. due dillengence)
- Help choosing your best hardware, software and networking solutions - negotiating cost savings too
- Offshoring your technology project, support function or data entry tasks
