Information Technology
Datasouth understands the issues arising with the implementation and management of IMT resources to ensure an optimum fit between technology and business.
As such, Datasouth can assist businesses with the development of strategic IMT plans that will meet evolving business requirements. Without the correct planning, businesses can be hamstrung by their IMT infrastructure. This creates substantial business risk and causes poor return on investment.
Datasouth will develop high level strategic plans in conjunction with clients that meet their business objectives. These plans will include technology considerations, return on investment, business risk minimisation and implementation time frames. As part of this strategic planning, Datasouth will develop product roadmap’s that will define specific platform infrastructures to provide the best path forward.
In conjunction with this strategic planning, Datasouth is able to assist clients with IMT Governance requirements. Datasouth will provide the framework for the development of policies to be integrated into the total IMT solution that form part of a businesses complete governance policy.
The IMT Governance requirement may include:
- Legal Obligations (Privacy and Employment Law).
- Distribution of Information.
- Media Storage/Disposal.
- Internet Access/Policies.
- Employee Exit Strategy.
- Software Licensing and Compliance.
- Disaster Recovery Planning.
- Risk Assessment and Policy.
- Change Management.
- External Contractor/Project Management.
