Strategy

Many organisations have multiple IT systems which perform specific functions; for example, finance systems, HR systems, CRM systems – and of course, lots of spreadsheets!

In this environment, data is distributed widely across all of these systems and therefore it is difficult to get organisation-wide information. Common symptoms are:

• Data duplication
• Data in different systems not remaining synchronised
• Processing inefficiencies
• Reporting inconsistencies
• Extensive manual input

Often these problems arise because the organisation lacks a business information systems strategy.

A business information systems strategy is a cohesive plan of how software, staff and other resources will be used to record and report on business information and data. 

Our team of experienced advisors can help by;

• Understanding what are the business information needs of the organisation
• Assessing where the organisation is now with respect to systems, processes, people and data
• Developing a holistic information systems strategy for the organisation
