IT Strategic Planning Services
Sunera’s IT Strategic Planning services are designed to assist Financial Institutions with assessing an organization’s business needs from a technological standpoint and maximizing its investment in people, infrastructure and applications. Our strategic planning focuses on, and begins with an assessment of, four key business areas including: management and personnel; operations; application and network infrastructure; and, risk management to achieve an appropriate strategy.
Once we have completed the initial assessment, we can develop a Comprehensive Strategic Plan that will define major technical infrastructure implementation components, their dependencies, activities, project roles, milestones, and time frames. The Plan will include the decisions regarding what technologies should be implemented and begin to formulate when and how the new technology will be rolled out. This will also include a preliminary cost estimate and plan that will provide a baseline to be incorporated into the Institution’s overall IT strategy.
Within these activities, we will utilize COBIT, an international standard for conducting IT Infrastructure Assessments. COBIT is a risk-based, process-focused methodology that we will use to establish a thorough understanding of the Institution’s objectives, the risks that threaten those objectives, and the relationships between those risks and the Institution’s controls.
