Technology Assessment and Planning Services for Today's Organizations

The key to kicking off a great IT plan is to start with an assessment.

An assessment with Decision Digital tells you exactly what you need to know in order to prioritize your technology needs. As a smart, savvy business owner or leader we know that you see the value in spending time developing a plan to better manage your IT. An assessment will help you determine the following:

  • You’re ready to outsource your IT or better manage your internal IT resources.
  • If you’re looking to outsource, you need a better IT partner than your last one.
  • If you’ve got in-house people, you know you need more expertise than what you’ve got.
  • You need help managing your remote workers and their IT needs.
  • You’re aware of cybersecurity risks, though it’s quickly turning into full-fledged worrying.

You get it. You know that you can’t improve your IT infrastructure and systems alone. You need more than help; you need an experienced IT partner.

Our assessment will tell you everything you need to know in order to prioritize your technology improvements while managing your IT spend.

The brilliant part of an assessment is that some of the recommended changes could save you money over the lifetime of your business. That and give you and your team a better IT experience and performance.

How do we marry technology to your forward looking business strategy?

We perform a comprehensive assessment of your IT infrastructure and systems, collecting data pertaining to your current technology’s impact on your organization’s growth, your IT budget and spending, and your hardware and software needs. We also assess and review your hardware life cycle, warranties, usage, and life span while evaluating the performance of your network.

We'll review and analyze all collective data to prepare a findings report, which we'll sit down and walk through with you. This step is crucial for you to understand the ins and outs of your current IT infrastructure, and what we can do to get you back on top.

We develop a customized IT roadmap using the report’s data and analysis. We’ll then discuss how you’d like to move forward with implementing the proposed plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not at all. Though we do include an annual assessment in our Fully Managed IT Services Plan, you do not need to sign up for this plan to sign up for this service. In fact, we highly recommend organizations with their own internal IT team or a change in leadership sign up for an assessment.

To succeed in your business technology goals, you’ll need a strategic IT plan. In order to create the right plan, you’ll need to know where your strengths and weaknesses lie, and the costs associated with areas that need improvements. If you’re still not sure if this assessment is right for you, please contact us and we can give you more information and answer any other questions you have.

That can be a challenging question to answer without having more details regarding your organization. However, it’s safe to say that if you can answer the questions below, you may not need an assessment at this time. You might be able to get away with only a status update from your current IT provider. BUT, since we are in the IT Services industry, we wouldn’t recommend that you make this decision without a qualified IT professional.

  • Are your current IT environment and systems getting regularly updated?
  • Has your business experienced any network failures or downtime? Can you be sure they won’t happen again?
  • Are your backups consistently tested and verified? How often and by whom?
  • Do you have an IT budget and are you able to anticipate your annual spending needs?
  • Are you about to perform a large IT project that will impact your entire IT infrastructure and systems, such as migrating to the cloud, or a new office build-out?

These are the types of things that an assessment can help give you visibility and insight into. In our experience with our clients, annual assessments are the most helpful in getting your company’s IT priorities and spending on track.
