IT strategy
As a manager in business and IT, you are faced with the challenge of leading your company into the future and developing it further. Digitalization is an omnipresent topic that affects all sectors, be it agencies, industry, construction, banks, architecture firms and many more. We are proud to count all these sectors among our satisfied customers, and they share a common need: the need for a modern (IT) infrastructure.
Whether it’s modern workplace solutions such as video telephony, the integration of the telephone system in teams, internal and external data exchange or the digitalization of their own processes – every company has had to reposition itself in recent years. But there are also new topics and questions. These questions often end up in the IT department, but this is often not the right point of contact, as it “only” provides solutions, but rarely (co-)designs company processes.
The possibility of reading e-mails on a private cell phone while on the move, but still making it secure, legally compliant and company-compliant, is an almost incidental issue.
How can your company remain competitive in the future, attract new employees and specialists who work remotely, yet protect data, comply with legal requirements and still protect itself against cyber attacks? Ideally, all this without high investment costs. But the question of how existing employees can be motivated to use the new technologies or handle the existing tools and programs better (training and change management) is also very important.
However, unforeseen events can also have a significant impact on your infrastructure. That is why we have developed robust disaster recovery plans and business continuity strategies that have already been tried and tested in an emergency. These ensure that your business can continue to operate after an unexpected event and minimize downtime.
These topics are strategic issues that are worked out together with the departments in an IT strategy.
These topics are strategic issues that are worked out together with the departments in an IT strategy.
In a joint workshop, we look at the various roles in your company, from IT to management to the application manager (department head) – in other words, all stakeholders in your company.
To begin with, we work together to develop your vision for the future as well as individual requirements from your industry and your company. This is followed by the development of specific application scenarios for your company, which we prioritize according to impact and challenge. Of course, we also check to what extent your environment is ready for a changeover and adaptation.

Increasing efficiency
One of the main functions of an IT strategy is to improve the efficiency of business processes. By automating routine tasks, improving data management and optimizing software and hardware resources, an IT strategy can help save time and money.
Competitive advantage
A well-planned and implemented IT strategy can give companies a competitive advantage. By using modern technologies and digital innovations, companies can improve their products and services, strengthen their market position and tap into new business opportunities.
Risk mitigation
IT strategies often include risk mitigation plans, particularly in relation to cyber security. By implementing security protocols, training employees and regularly testing systems, companies can minimize the risk of data breaches, cyberattacks and other IT-related risks.
Better decision making
An effective IT strategy can also help to improve decision-making. By using data analytics and business intelligence, companies can gain valuable insights that help them make informed business decisions.
Future-proofing
Ultimately, an IT strategy helps companies to be future-proof. By considering future technology trends and planning for technological changes, companies can ensure that they are prepared for the future.
