To ensure that your organization’s IT systems are developed to support current and future demand, invest in strategic IT planning. Strategic IT planning focuses on creating a maintainable IT infrastructure that will support your organization’s primary goal of providing superior customer service and being financially successful. Proper planning can help your organization design the best IT systems. Typically, larger organizations hire CIOs to take care of strategic IT planning. While smaller organizations have the same strategic IT planning needs, most make do without the expert guidance they really need.
