Information Technology Assessment

An Information Technology Assessment will provide you with a third-party observation, analysis, and recommendation pertaining to the use of technology resources in your business.  This detailed report will cover everything from technology implementation, infrastructure management through to personnel.  The report will be written in language suitable for sharing with managers / owners (for business planning) and technical personnel (for system implementation). 

The comprehensive review will include:

• An inventory of all hardware & software in use at the beginning of our IT assessment.

• An evaluation of software license compliance on all software to ensure that your company is not violating any legal restrictions on use of software.

• An evaluation of the current software patch & update status to ensure that all your software is updated to the latest applicable standards.

• An analysis and evaluation of your hardware sufficiency to ensure that your equipment is adequate for the tasks you are expecting it to accomplish for your business. This will include a review of disk space utilisation on all machines.

• An evaluation of backup strategy to ensure that your valuable data is protected and available for recovery should such a need arise.

• An analysis of antivirus and spyware protection effectiveness to ensure that your systems are protected against outside threats introduced by Internet access or transfer of information into your systems from other sources.

• Preparation of a plan of action for cleaning up any problems discovered in the assessment.

• Preparation of a proactive maintenance program for temporary files, regular disk fragmentation, spyware cleaning, and other tasks that are required to keep your systems operating at peak efficiency and effectiveness in the future

By performing an assessment, Consultek-IT can knowledgeably provide advice on Information Technology planning and provide the best level of technical support to fit your company’s specific technology needs.  The final outcome will be practical suggestions on areas where you will be able to save money.
