Here are 3 reasons why you should consider using professional IT consulting:

1. Experience and Talent you won’t find anywhere else.

To be successful in any business venture you need the right personnel (within budget) that can out preform your competition. It’s the same concept in the complicated realm of information technology. You cannot achieve a winning technology environment that supports your business operations by having your cousin who took a computer science course in college run your IT department. You need a team of IT specialists that have experience in your industry, understand compliance regulations, and can align your systems with your business goals efficiently. To hire this caliber expertise as part of your in-house IT staff would usually be out of your budget, but a Professional IT service provider can deliver IT specialists for a fraction of the cost.

2. Actually get stuff done and see projects completed on time, on budget.

IT consulting in following scenarios:

A) You want to launch a new website that supports your new brand image with improved functionality.

Reality- Few months later you still have an out-dated and glitchy site.

B) You want your IT department to improve service levels and reduce downtime so you can support your customers better.

Reality- Your IT department is too busy handling trouble tickets, changing employee passwords, and managing the daily mundane IT tasks. They don’t have the time, or the resources to improve capability and reliability.

C) You and your team are planning an IT project; you’re worried about the resources you’ll need and if you can meet the required deadline.

Reality- Your project plan is lacking structure, identified risks, projected return on investment, and a project leader to ensure tasks are on track.

Solution to all of the above:

Partner with a professional IT consulting firm that can complete projects on time, and correctly. Overwhelming your IT department will result in project failures, and negatively impact your productivity. Instead, rely on the experts from project conception to integration and avoid costly setbacks.

Unplanned events can be effectively handled by IT professional reducing the burden on in-house IT department.
