IT strategic planning

We help you create an IT strategic plan that identifies, prioritizes, and builds a case for IT investment. We partner with you to assess your current technology environment, prioritize challenges, and engage stakeholders to identify the most effective solutions and align investments with business objectives. 

IT management and operational assessments

Our consultants look holistically at your IT program and objectively assess IT operations, organization, and service delivery. Based on our findings, we provide actionable recommendations for improvement and implementation support.

Staffing assessments

We can help you optimize the performance of your IT department or help you determine how well your team is positioned for growth. We provide an unbiased analysis of current and optimal IT staffing levels, utilization, and organization to help you identify critical gaps and opportunities for improvement.

Data management

Our consultants can help you elevate data maturity by developing data management methodologies and related elements, such as data governance programs, policies, initiatives, and implementation frameworks, to improve data quality, support efficiency, reduce redundancies, and improve security.

Information security

We help you protect sensitive information by conducting a thorough assessment of information security policies, practices, capabilities, and critical gaps, and providing recommendations for improvements.

Cost allocation studies

We assess your IT solutions and services to understand the total cost of ownership, so funding sources of operational and capital costs can be appropriately allocated.

We apply proven project management principles and scale them to meet your needs. We keep you informed of progress, leading projects that are on time, on budget, and make the best use of resources and taxpayer dollars.
