Strategic IT Management as Basis for Company’s Success
J&M can assist your company in developing an integral IT strategy. In other words, the IT strategy must be optimally attuned to the company strategy. Let our consultants help you with innovative consulting concepts and a complete range of services. The services we offer range from formulating the IT strategy to conducting portfolio management for IT projects to drawing up business cases or potential analyses. We view the implementation of a well-ordered IT strategy process as an additional pillar supporting strategic IT management.
Benefits of Optimized IT Strategy
- Increased efficiency by orienting IT towards the company objectives and not towards IT hype.
- Identification of cost-saving potential in the IT sector using benchmarking and make/buy analyses.
- Reduced costs thanks to stringent project portfolio management and prioritising of initiatives capable of generating a significant increase in value.
- Continual improvement of IT management by introducing and using an IT scorecard.
Management Consulting
- Formulation of IT Strategy
Analysis of the company strategy and assessment of the environment including customers and suppliers, the situation on the market and as regards competition and long-term technological trends, such as ESA (Enterprise Service Architecture).
- Creation of Project Portfolio Management
If investments are to be controlled in a regulated and centralised manner, suitable processes and tools must be made available for managing IT. Projects must be assessed and prioritised.
- Development of an IT Scorecard
J&M develops a scorecard for managing the IT in your company. The extent to which the strategic IT objectives have been met is measured using suitable key performance indicators. If certain objectives are not met, it is possible for this to be recognised in good time.
- Enterprise Service Architecture
Future IT architectures will be based on Enterprise Service Architecture (ESA). The modular construction of ESA means that we now have a greater scope of possibilities for adapting IT architecture to suit business processes and not vice-versa, as is so often the case. As it can help to render business processes more efficient and exploit cost-saving potential, there can be a lot in favour of putting Enterprise Service Architecture to use now rather than waiting any longer.
