The Beyond Technology Consulting's Business Focus
We go beyond the technology to focus on your business outcomes
Turn your IT function from a cost centre, to a growth engine
You can’t afford for your IT capabilities to be a handbrake holding you back from growth opportunities:
- IT needs to be agile and cost effective;
- Even if Technology can’t be a competitive advantage in your business, it should be laser focused on supporting the business in achieving an advantage;
- Continuous improvement and planning is needed to make sure you are not left flat footed and missing opportunities.
Focus Technology on reducing cost to serve and improving outcomes
Your IT capabilities needs to be on a continuous improvement and planning cycle:
- Identifying and eliminating hidden costs;
- Calculating and retiring technical debt;
- Optimising IT spend to deliver the highest business value through direct alignment to business goals.
Reducing Risk, eliminating uncertainty and Improving Efficiency
Running a growing organisation without IT is almost impossible, so a clear understanding of your risk of technical failure or cyber breach is critical to managing your obligations to customer, partners, shareholders and regulators. Hoping for the best has never been an acceptable approach, however with the growing complexity of modern digital supply chains, and the ever increasing risk of cyber events, organisation need to deliberately undertake appropriate risk management. Similarly, failing to exploit opportunities to improve efficiency of the organisation through technology innovation or not retiring technical debt, can limit your ability to compete in the market.
Ensure Compliance, Manage Risk, and eliminating uncertainty
Ensuring that you are meeting your regulatory and commercial obligations is becoming increasingly complex , so a clear understanding of your organisations management of risk of technical failure or cyber breach is critical to meeting the expectations of both shareholders and regulators. Knowing what questions to ask, and understanding the answers often requires independent technical advisors that know commercial reality as well as the growing complexity of modern digital supply chains, and the ever-increasing risk of cyber events, and appropriate risk management. Similarly, failing to be able to exploit opportunities to improve efficiency of the organisation through technology innovation or not retiring technical debt, represents a similar governance problem.

Your business outcomes

Beyond Technology has several ways to help CFO’s and CIO’s to improve their organisation’s balance sheet. Our consultants are highly skilled in identifying how to optimise your IT costs to ensure that you are taking advantage of the technology available to your organisation.
Many organisations carry a significant IT failure risk without understanding either the potential or consequences of failure. Quantifying the latent risk, and taking steps to mitigate it not only makes good business sense, it often provides significant improvement in the efficiency and availability of “business as usual” IT service.
With the growing demands on IT departments it can be all too easy to focus on rapidly expanding capability and addressing the day-to-day challenges of running the technology. Properly aligning IT to direct business requirements, while improving the communication channels between IT and the business delivers massive efficiency and capability improvements.
Digital and Technology enablement is critical to all business's growth plans, and without appropriate IT foundations and planning your growth journey will be lost at sea. Aligning your technology planning to your business strategy and ensuring appropriate priority is given to future enablement projects makes a decisive difference to your business growth plans.
