An Important First Step
Assessing your technology is a critical first step before implementing any new strategy or technology. Not only can an assessment identify deviations/gaps in your technology plan, they can also identify new areas for improvement. This primer serves to get you thinking about the benefits a technology assessment can have on your organization.
Take Stock
Probably easier said than done, but taking stock and accounting for your technology is crucial. In order to build for the future, your organization needs to know what capabilities it has now. Taking stock includes more than just the infrastructure, but also the current processes and people.
Look at your Goals
Knowing your technology AND business goals are key factors in assessing the effectiveness of your technology. Technology always serves as a facilitator to reaching business objectives. Increasing effectiveness is a matter of identifying and remediating gaps between goals/intended functionality and your current operating state.
