Let Us Help You Succeed
Kennedy Technology Group provides part-time CIO services and IT management consulting services for small to mid-sized businesses throughout Northern California. Equally comfortable in the boardroom or the data-center, our managing consultants have led globally distributed teams including off-shore management of IT, quality assurance, and software development and have been accountable for multi-million dollar projects and operating line budgets.
We also understand the unique needs of the smaller, growing business. As a business leader, you're constantly challenged with controlling costs, reducing risk, serving customers and increasing productivity. Our highly-trained technology professionals understand both emerging and time-proven technologies and their application to your business.
With KTG at your side you're able to reduce operational costs and free capital for more productive uses. You're freed to focus on your business goals, not on IT. We're there to help you succeed.
IT Management Consulting Services
Part-time CIO — IT management is a challenge for growing organizations who can't justify a full-time senior IT manager. KTG helps clients by providing interim or part-time CIO services. We've found this approach works especially well during periods of rapid growth or leadership transition, or when completing larger, more complex projects. Our managing consultants have served as former VPs, CIO's, and directors for rapid-growth startups, global consultancies, and mid-sized corporations. Typical assignments are three to six months.
IT to business alignment — Navigating today's technology landscape is no easy task. We work with you to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy, leveraging technology, to help you compete, adapt and learn. By creating a clear plan that aligns your IT activities with core business goals, you're able to receive far greater value from your IT investments.
IT financial analysis and management — We help you decide which IT investments make economic sense. We look at your biggest challenges and opportunities, consider current technology trends, and employ measurement models like Total Cost of Ownership, Return on Investment and Risk Analysis to help you rationalize your IT investments.
Security and business continuity — A well designed security framework is critical to protecting a company's reputation and assets. We help you develop a complete information security strategy. This includes creating security policies, procedures and business continuity plans. We assess security hardware and software infrastructure, communication processes, compliance risk, security monitoring, and technology update processes. Our annual security audits are especially popular.
End-to-end project management — Leave the details to us. We provide high quality IT project management services ensuring delivery on time and on budget. Services include complete coordination, time-line tracking, change control, resource management, documentation, routine status communications and knowledge transfer. We've managed a wide-range of projects including physical office moves, deployment of new E-business applications, and data center migrations.
Business process improvement — We work with your team to analyze current workflow's and processes within your organization and with outside parties. By using information technology to refine business processes we help you manage information more efficiently, improve productivity and build stronger relationships with customers, partners and suppliers.
Vendor and contract management — Managing the IT assets of an organization can be a daunting task. With years of experience and extensive industry relationships we help identify suppliers and evaluate products and services that support your strategy. We help negotiate contracts and structure transactions to maximize the business impact of your IT investments. We also monitor product performance guarantees, service level agreements and licenses and maintenance contracts, ensuring they are current, viable, and cost-efficient.
