Does this sound familiar?
Your IT infrastructure is growing, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep track of everything.
IT is procured reactively in response to departmental requests.
You’re constantly investing in IT, but you can’t tell if the big picture is heading in the right direction.
Your company is growing, and your IT needs to keep up.
This is how we work
Initial situation and objectives
We clarify what your company plans to do in the coming years and what that means for IT. This includes the question of how far ahead the strategy should look.
Location analysis
We examine your systems, dependencies, and providers, and speak with the people who work with them daily. Often, this reveals that a system is being extended that is already being circumvented in practice.
Options and decision
We develop various options and evaluate them based on benefits, costs, risks, and effort. We prepare the decision-making basis in such a way that it is acceptable to management or the relevant committee.
Roadmap and anchoring
We translate the decision into prioritized measures with assigned responsibilities, deadlines, and budgets. We also clarify what the strategy means for each area. A strategy is only effective if people understand what to expect and why.
What you will receive
You will receive a document outlining your IT strategy: where your IT stands today, where it should develop, and which options have been examined. This includes a roadmap with prioritized measures, responsibilities, budget framework, and the most significant risks.
We don't create strategies that just sit on a shelf. Your strategy should help you in your daily work, enabling you to categorize inquiries, offers, and projects. That's why we keep it concise and avoid anything that simply fills pages.
We also deliver your strategy in a machine-readable format.
A strategy that makes decisions easier
What's next?
Once the decision has been made, we will help you choose the right solution and, if desired, manage the implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions
We don't have our own IT department. Do we still need an IT strategy?
Especially then. Without in-house specialists, decisions are often based on what's currently available. A strategy provides direction. You don't need an IT department for that, but clarity about your goals. We'll provide the technical expertise.
How extensive will the strategy document be?
As comprehensive as necessary and as short as possible.
What is meant by machine-readable?
You will receive your strategy not only as a document, but also as a structured file in JSON or CSV format. Goals, measures, and key performance indicators are individually marked up, with information such as priority, responsibility, and deadline. This allows you to import it into your systems, analyze it, or transfer it into your own documents without any typing. We also provide documentation of the fields.
Are you implementing the strategy?
Yes. Upon request, we can manage the implementation or support individual projects.
