Prepare for Cutthroat Competition
Believe it or not – the competition in the IT industry is tough. Only a well-planned strategy with proper management can guide your company toward growth and development.
One82 offers bespoke IT consulting to small and medium businesses (SMBs) to integrate the different departmental silos of the organization for a focused growth path. With an agile approach toward business challenges, you can fulfill your short-term goals while planning effectively for the long-term ones.

Why Do You Need Strategic IT Planning and Management?
It may not be evident initially, but simply ‘winging it’ is not the right approach, even when starting a business. Tactical planning and process management in the IT department help organizations focus on the core development areas for maximum growth potential in a minimal time frame.
Delegate Operations Adeptly

A clearly-defined framework for the decision-making hierarchy helps streamline IT functions to help employees work efficiently, delivering higher productivity.
Be Proactive in Emergencies

Strategic IT planning and management lay down the vision and direction for the business’s IT strategies and goals for normal operations. But it also prepares the company to respond to unanticipated changes promptly and effectively.
Leaves Room for Creativity

An IT consulting company provides the structure for business operations in the future. Once a strategic plan is in place, the additional features and systems can be added on with ease and a customizable approach. Agendas of future planning sessions can be directed towards building core capabilities.
High-level Strategizing

Having a pre-planned IT infrastructure allows the C-suite executives to work on redirecting employee efforts toward the business’s goal realization. It also keeps them informed about everyday operations without getting involved with them.
Four Key Steps in Strategic IT Planning and Management
One82 follows the following procedure to generate an easy-to-follow and result-oriented plan of action through its IT consulting services:

Understanding the foundational goals
The first step involves IT leaders discussing to identify the primary issues and opportunities along with business objectives. An unambiguous organizational strategy will have clearly defined objectives for each department.

Analyzing and investing
Following the shortlisting of business requirements and goals, the management can perform a SWOT analysis, closely examine stakeholder feedback and plan for probable scenarios. This helps IT leaders zero in on optimal resource utilization regarding technology, people, and finances.

Implementation
The third phase involves defining the sequence, risk mitigation strategies, and discussing various deliverables about long-term IT goals for the business. We drive your company’s digital transformation by outlining the budget, roles, and KPIs.

Review and Strategy Enhancement
Lastly, we measure how the IT strategy generates actual results to benchmark success and identify areas of the management plan that need to be amended for better outcomes. Adapting to market trends, industry regulations, and customer feedback is key to keeping your business relevant and top-notch.
