SIGMA

Strategic Consulting

Without a clear IT strategy and serious thought given to the implications of technology choices, any IT functional area is likely to be a reactive break-fix service that adds little value to the business. Sigma's creativity as a Òdesign and buildÓ organisation stems from our business-focused consulting capability. We work proactively with our clients to develop a clear IT strategy that supports business process and brings real value and benefit to our clients in the areas they care about. The result of a Sigma consultancy is a customer-driven IT strategy that not only implements secure and reliable technologies but also promotes good business practice through the best technologies available in any given field.

When consulting with our clients to develop an IT strategy, Sigma takes a three-stage approach:

  • stabilising of existing IT environment
  • creating the IT strategy
  • implementing the IT strategy

First Stage:

Stabilising the Existing IT Environment

At the start of a strategic consultancy, when Sigma stabilises a client's IT infrastructure, we undertake the following tasks:

  • perform total cost of ownership audit
  • conduct needs analysis
  • check information security
  • perform software audit
  • conduct risk assessment

Second Stage:

Creating the IT Strategy

When Sigma creates an IT strategy for a client, we perform the following tasks:

  • design IT system
  • develop IT strategy
  • develop ISO 17799 security management plan
  • determine business process requirements
  • develop outsourcing plan

Third Stage:

Implementing the IT Strategy

During Sigma's implementation stage of a client's IT strategy, we do the following:

  • provide project management services to ensure timely progress
  • conduct rolling reviews
  • ensure disaster recovery capability
  • conduct training and knowledge transfer workshops to improve ongoing maintenance

Sigma Helps Reduce Costs

Sigma's challenge was to enhance the existing group-wide IT infrastructure and reduce costs at a time of rapid expansion
