Information & Information Technology Strategic Planning

The effective use of information and technology (IT) is critical to the success of commercial and public organisations.  Organisations need to invest wisely in information, applications and technology in support of their overall business strategy.  This can be achieved by developing a strategic plan for the use and management of IT, based on an organisation's business strategy.

An Information and Information Technology Strategic Plan will help an organisation maximise the effectiveness of IT, minimise the risk associated with IT initiatives, increase system integration and flexibility, gain competitive advantage through the use of IT, and set a clear direction for the ongoing implementation and management of IT.
