When it comes to new IT technology and upgrades to existing applications and systems, it seems like the only constant is change. If IT change is managed in a rational, organized manner, it can lead to cost-saving and productivity-boosting benefits. However, when it comes to adopting new IT technology, some companies jump on the most current bandwagon while others simply bury their heads in the sand.
Audit and Adoption Problems
If a company does not audit its technology infrastructure and does not implement a business-focused adoption strategy, technology might not be used as intended, or might be used ineffectively to solve issues or take advantage of opportunities. This can lead to poor ROI or increased costs, especially when systems are duplicated or older systems are still used because new solutions are not implemented properly. In short, the lack of a technology adoption plan can lead to considerable business pain.
ThinkNet Alleviates IT Adoption Pain
When it comes to IT audits and adoption, ThinkNet has a proven project management methodology to manage change.
First off, ThinkNet is not strictly technology focused. There has to be a business case for new technology adoption (such as the old system cannot deliver the goods or is causing opportunities to be missed) before ThinkNet recommends the adoption of new technology. Secondly, to ensure there is a need to upgrade, ThinkNet conducts an independent assessment and evaluation of a company’s IT and identifies potential problems that can be solved with IT upgrades or new technology. Finally, if new technology solutions are implemented, ThinkNet includes a detailed education component so that staff understands the value of the new technology and learns how to use it effectively.
When all employees are moving in the same direction for the right reasons, it leads to greater productivity and ROI, and can lead to improved sales and customer service.
