It Consulting
Ever watch a bunch of frustrated people in a room while they are trying to figure out a solution to a problem, sometimes for hours? Usually, their frustration is because they only know a piece of the overall problem’s solution. IT consulting, such as ourselves, understand the big picture, and have the ability to rapidly determine the nature of the issue. Once we have determined the problem, a solution can be quickly executed. IT consultants’ main responsibility is to strategize on how, what, and when you should use a certain technology. They are your trusted advisors, architects, and business solution strategists. Companies have a hard time with the concept of why IT consulting is needed. Every company has a CEO or COO who is responsible for how the company operates, is organized, and determines key business decisions based on company data. However, most CEOs or COOs are not IT experts. Most CEOs are not able to make key business decisions surrounding IT, because they do not have the latest IT knowledge. They are without all the pieces. An IT consultant can guide your CEO and/or COO on the best methods to align your business with IT needs.
Benefits of IT Consulting
- You pay almost 50% less for a professional IT consultant than you would if you were to hire a less-experienced intermediate IT technician.
- IT consultants understand how to align the IT structure to the business needs, and not the other way around. Good IT consultants understand that the business needs are what determine how your IT backbone is built out.
- You get access to a wide range of technology experience rather than a technician with one specific skill.
- IT consultants are there to help your company succeed–they can make a world of difference. They are your trusted advisors and their success depends on your company’s success.
- You will save thousands of dollars on costly software when consulting for expert advice. Your consultant can vet each software program and ensure you get the right software programs you need the first time
