Services IT strategy and implementation Deriving strategies for IT environments that satisfy business requirements and making sure these strategies are implemented by changing the IT environment from what it currently is to what it should be. Cost effectiveness of IT expenditures with changing technology needs and different actors across an organization, both geographically and business area wise, IT expenditures have also to be reviewed regularly and evaluated both in terms of effectiveness and dollar value. Cost reduction in IT spending while maintaining service levels The challenge in cost reduction is often to find the right compromise between real business needs and necessary service levels on the one hand and the cost of delivering on the other hand. Our experience allows us both to better define the needs and then assign the appropriate solutions for the real needs, not the perceived ones. Thus redundancies and over comfort levels are reduced without affecting end client service level. Supply Management Both on the business and technology side. Defining offerings, LOP, supplier selection and negotiation, representing clients from request for proposals until contract signature and implementation.
