Creating Business aligned IT Strategy - IT strategies set direction for IT efforts in delivering business capabilities. We help develop  IT strategies for the whole enterprise or divisions. Our approach ensures IT strategies are pragmatic. We help develop road-maps that guide the strategy execution. Our approach ensures strong collaboration and communication with key stakeholders to help get true acceptance of the strategy.

We also assist with Technology Selection, Portfolio review and Sourcing strategies.

Program and Portfolio management - Our program and portfolio management approach ensure you realise timely value from the investments. We work with the business sponsors and IT to make sure the solutions are pragmatic and appropriate. We help you ensure that the programs are well structured and there is effective governance and risk control.  The benefits realisation plan ensures that the benefits are measured and obtained.

Cost Management - Sustained cost control requires an ongoing discipline rather than being treated as a one-time goal. Leading edge cost management requires simultaneous management of the supply (vendor contracts, sourcing) and demand (business change and business consumption of IT resources) sides. We have several proven tactics to help you achieve cost efficiency.

Governance and risk management - IT investments are a significant proportion of the companies capital expenditure. Governance ensures that the IT efforts and dollars are spent wisely. Using a framework based on COBIT, We help you ensure:

• Are we doing the right things?
• Are we getting the benefits?
• Are we doing them the right way?
• Are we doing them well?
  

Governance services include Investment governance framework, IT Health check, Project risk review and Benefits realization.

Streamline the IT organisation - Structure of IT organisations and the capability of people within has a substantial impact on performance. Organisational design is key to improving business responsiveness and managing costs. We help establish a clear link between strategy and employee performance goals. We also help optimse cost and performance by appropriate sourcing strategies.

• Coach your senior executives as they prepare for C-level meetings
• Review business proposals for specific value propositions for CIOs
• Assist account teams to move from a technical to a strategic perspective
