Technology Management Missing Needs


puzzle2Running a growing business needs domain expertise for each function that supports the business, such as different administrator for servers, networks, digital marketing, etc. It is more economically suitable to hire servicing companies that already are expert on their domain rather than investing on technical employee recruitment and training. As the number of servicing companies are involved in an organization, good management is inevitably required to make sure what they are doing is aligned with the business strategy.

Our service provides your organization a management role for tech-related domain expertise from many servicing companies to work together toward organization’s goal. Beside maintaining relation and managing the companies, we also apply internal management for technology resources that your organization has invested, such as computers, servers, cables, CCTV, etc.

 

Our client

Before realizing the need of technology management, our client approached us to complete an ongoing ecommerce project. The project has been abandoned due to insufficient technological resources. We quickly study the requirement and found out that many important features such as payment integration, product search, and others are not in place.

A more thorough study is conducted to understand our client further. The result was a conclusion that there were at least four external tech-related servicing companies that our client has hired: server administration, website development, CCTV provider, and ERP provider. These companies focus on their service but, unfortunately, there is no one in the organization who manages and supervises their work. It is such a waste investing in expensive technology and tech companies while no one is managing them well to bring returned benefit.
