Are you spending more than you should?

 

Most businesses react to their IT needs, waiting for something to happen, then reacting to the situation.  New employee hired?  Get a new computer.  Printer is shot?  Get another printer.  New line of business software purchased?  Expand the hardware.  And so it goes…

A much more realistic approach, which saves money overall, is to be proactive.  Gather a qualified team that knows your operations and pair them off with an IT person.  Meet once a quarter and discuss the changes to your operations and how they can impact your infrastructure.  The goal of the team is to analyze what employees actually need.  It will keep you from repeat purchases that the business may not need, and it will encourage innovative thinking which could result in dollars saved down the road.
