Success Story - Setting the IT Direction

 

 

  Client:  Integrated Circuit Manufacturer and Distributor
   
  Project:  IT Strategy and Change Management
   

 

  The arrival of a new CEO and CFO of this rapidly growing company quickly led to the realization that existing information systems were inadequate to the task of supporting the current business, not to mention where planned growth would take the company.  We were asked to provide assistance to:
       
    Ø develop a Vision of the business
       
    Ø develop a Vision of how the business will use technology in the future
       
    Ø develop a process model of the business
       
Ø assess the "as is" state of information technology, including:
       
      â spending amounts and patterns
      â functional and technical evaluation of applications
      â organization and managements control of IT
â IT skills
      â User satisfaction and awareness
         
Ø define the gap between the "as is" state and the envisioned state
       
    Ø develop a migration plan for bridging the gap
   
The resulting plan and recommendations led to the development of a technical architecture, selection of an enterprise package solution, re-engineering of key business processes, implementation of a user help desk, development of a disaster contingency plan and the identification of an impending network bottleneck.
