The Problem
Is IT getting in the way of your business?
Are you getting frustrated with IT in your organisation? See any tell-tale signs?
• People in IT aren’t listening and “talk technical” all the time.
• Computer systems are “getting in the way” of business progress.
• Strategic development is being hampered by your IT infrastructure.
• Major projects are failing to deliver what’s promised.
• Projects are piling up and when completed are either over budget, late, or both
• Suppliers seem to be charging too much and delivering too little.
• Your organisation is embarking on a major programme of work and you are concerned about effective delivery
These common symptoms display a lack of strategic IT direction, assuming that technology can solve all of our problems. It never has and never will!

Testimonials
...stripping away the technology confusion....
The Information Technology industry suffers from a lack of quality and clarity. It rarely follows the simple principles of knowing what you are going to get and how you will get there. During my time as CIO I was faced daily with an IT industry bombarding me with tenuous links between my business and how their technology would help us to extract more value from our product. This was generally achieved with the use of techno babble and fear in order to promote their latest products or ideas.
Alan added immense value by stripping away the technology confusion and intricacy and communicated a clear picture of the journey and the destination we should expect. Alan’s ability to design simple scenarios, despite the obvious underlying complexity, is an invaluable service and exactly what senior management need to plan for the future.

....a coherent overall solution....
We contracted Alan Moore to lay out a framework for our transition from an outdated legacy IT platform to one capable of supporting the long term growth of the company including globalisation and distribution through multiple channels. Three years down track we are well on the way to completing an efficient and scalable IT environment. With Alan’s help we have been confident that each of our steps along the way including vendor selection and project definition have contributed to the construction of a coherent overall solution.
