Information Systems Planning and Selection

Use Your Technology Systems to Their Fullest Potential

Before determining whether your current information systems (IS) meet your business requirements, you need to create an IS vision. We’ll help you develop a strategic plan for implementing new or improved systems to support your organization’s strategic direction. We can also help you develop the budgets you’ll need to put your strategic plan into action.

Ensure the efficiency and effectiveness of your business processes and functions using our IS assessment. We’ll identify major strengths and weaknesses within your system and recommend ways to improve technology use within your organization.

If your IS assessment and strategic plan indicate you need new information systems, we’ll help you select systems that meet not only your current but also your future needs as well as facilitate your overall business plan. We can help you select systems ranging from voice and data communication to financial accounting.

Our Approach
You’ll provide us with insight into your systems by filling out an electronic questionnaire. Our proprietary software will analyze your responses and compare your results with similar-sized organizations in your industry.

We’ll assess your technology use compared to your current and future needs based on industry trends. We’ll identify:

  • Unsatisfied management information needs.
  • Additional services you may benefit from. 
  • Improvements to your existing manual and automated systems for increasing productivity and providing better, more timely information.

We’ll prepare a report that includes a technology scorecard for the following areas:

  • Technology planning and future direction
  • Technology infrastructure
  • Systems operations
  • Technology control environment

How You Will Benefit
You will receive:

  • An assessment of present information systems and technology compared to:
    • Industry trends.
    • Technology trends 
    • Other similarly sized organizations.
  • Identification of current and future IS needs.
  • Advice from experienced professionals. 
  • The potential to enhance your competitive position through technology.
