Focus IT

Focus IT is used to assess your organization's solution delivery capabilities and provides guidance to implement best practices. It determines the degree of maturity on areas such as project management, portfolio management, business alignment and IT governance.

When your organization makes a commitment to Focus IT, it is the first step toward increasing effectiveness, efficiency and productivity--all factors that impact your bottom line.

The success of Focus IT comes from our commitment to keeping the assessment and planning process quick, pragmatic and efficient. In addition, we focus on developing plans that fit within your organization's strategic direction and culture. We don't force change but rather enable it.

Here's how it works:

Gather, Compile and Evaluate Data

• Interview key IT and business stakeholders in your organization.
• Collect information from a few sample projects and review project documentation.
• Evaluate the maturity level of your organization across the eight Focus IT areas.

Develop An Assessment Report

• Assess the information in order to make recommendations for improvement that are tailored to your business environment.
• Use best-practice knowledge and optimal performance standards to develop a prioritized roadmap for moving your organization up the maturity scale.
• Define business benefits and corresponding metrics.

Improvement Plan Integration

• Partner with you in effecting positive change through education and training, coaching and mentoring, and providing project management services for your active projects.
• Develop a work plan to help drive maturity from its current level to the organization's desired level in each of the eight focus areas.
• Help you improve over time and evolve as your business changes.
