Any organisation can operate without a clear IT and web strategy – and many do. However, without a strategic framework, investment decisions about IT have to be made on their own merits and usually in relation to just one part of the organisation.
In the long run, this ad hoc decision-making is expensive. Before long, IT can become an obstacle to achieving the aims of the organisation rather than one of the most powerful resources at its disposal. A clear IT strategy enables an organisation to make appropriate, cost-effective decisions about IT.
Adapta can help you with your response to the challenges of developing and keeping your information and web systems up to date when faced with the increasing demands from across your organisation and the advance of new technologies. Our approach means that your IT strategy is not developed in isolation, but emanates from the overall organisational strategy and has secured the engagement of all the people concerned.
We can help you at all stages, whether you’re starting out, understanding your organisation’s IT needs, exploring options and making decisions, putting the strategy into action or want to check that you have achieved what you set out to do. We can help you to define and document:
• The key organisational processes and information needs that your IT systems need to support
• The main IT systems required to support these activities
• The technology standards, policies, and support arrangements that your organisation needs in order to use the IT systems effectively
• The projects to make all this happen

Charities, membership bodies and Trusts depend on information systems as much - if not more - than others to help them survive and develop in an increasingly competitive worlda. Good technology is essential, but the choices — and the risks — are also huge. Finding the right software and supplier — for your organisation can be one of the greatest challenges you will face. However, with the right approach , you can avoid the pitfalls and make sure you get the most from your investment. Functionality, performance, scalability and all the other technical considerations are important, and it is vital to take all those factors into account when looking at the options. However, your choice of supplier will be at least as important because, in the end, it will be the quality of that relationship — and the individuals involved — that will determine the success or failure of the implementation.
Greyhead consultants help you choose the approach that will work best for your organisation, whether that is a formal process that focuses on functionality and a competitive invitation to tender, or a more agile method that will help you to find the right long-term supplier relationship.
