Information Systems 

 

Developing a sound IT strategy is a major effort. Establishing a dynamic I.T. strategy requires far more finesse than it did even a decade ago. It requires improving the management process, synthesized with a clear vision of foreseeable directions and trends of information technology.

This is very difficult for any particular function of an organization to execute without expert help. It requires management, burdened with day to day operations, to step outside of daily activities, evaluate its needs, and redesign itself in thorough detail. More specifically, it requires examination and redesign of its information stream, procedures, and policies.

 

How a company arrives at a correct  software, hardware, and communications strategy  can determine how effective a company will be in meeting customer demands.  Selecting a software package; in the same manner as buying a washing machine  can prove to be dangerous to a company's future.

 

Our Approach

 

Our approach is to base the systems strategy on the future needs of the business. Out of this will come the optimal solution that will produce the results that can be implemented in the shortest period, with lowest total implementation costs. 


LMC facilitates the effort from the development of strategy through full implementation.  We recommend changes to the work flow processes and create solutions that will allow company's to meet their objectives.  Recommendations may include changes to organization, policies, procedures, business information systems, databases, computer hardware, processes, and information flow.

Managing change needs to be a part of every systems implementation.  We use a time-proven approach of high end-user involvement throughout the effort.  High involvement fosters authorship, authorship breeds ownership, and ownership creates buy-in for the changes to be implemented in the workplace. 

To make the overall effort manageable, we use a 4-phase process that addresses business processes first, second, builds a credible requirements definition document, third, searches for compatible software, hardware, and communications that will achieve the company’s objectives; and fourth, implements the systems.
