Review
We carry out detailed reviews that deliver an independent assessment of your current IT services and solutions, with recommendations to support your short and long-term business goals.
We can provide a full IT strategic review or focused reviews on particular aspects:
Often our first conversations with clients are to help them understand their IT challenges or to assess how they are performing whilst benchmarked against the market. There are different motivations for our clients in undertaking reviews which can be summarised as :-
- Worried by or frustrated by IT related issues and need help in defining the problem and identifying potential resolutions.
- Wanting to ensure they are doing the right things in the right ways
- Recognise they don’t have the required industry knowledge internally or simply stumped by capacity constraints for a particular challenge
- Struggling to make a decision internally and require external perspective
- Want to ensure they are keeping abreast of the latest legal tech developments
Reviews can either be widespread covering the whole IT landscape where we assess and benchmark the firms approach to key areas such as :- Strategy, Architecture, Security, Disaster Recovers / Business Continuity, Applications, Data Management, Processes, Communication and Training or they can be tactical where we are focused on a particular worry or area business focus, such as cyber security or case management for a particular department or workstream.
