STEP ON THE GAS: A ROADMAP TO MAXIMIZING IT INVESTMENTS.

SITUATION

It’s one of the biggest problems we hear from companies and their IT departments: “We are so busy maintaining existing systems that there’s no time (or budget) to implement a strategy, much less create one.” A major food and beverage client found itself in this exact situation. While this company had a strategy in mind, it needed help defining how to get it done in the most timely and efficient manner.

THE SYNAPTIC SHIFT

Capto challenged both the company’s IT department and its business units to establish a framework prioritizing application and infrastructure initiatives that aligned IT projects with business goals. With Capto’s help, the company developed a modular, service-based approach to application development and implementing a sourcing strategy to engage partners for key IT services.

RESULTS

• IT expenditures were measured against industry benchmarks
• Major projects were planned along a timeline that aligned with business priorities
