IT-MEDIATOR
is a consultancy that:
- Focuses on the human aspects of your project to achieve
success
- Offers you cost-effective alternatives to costly legal
processes
- Is results oriented
- Understands your business imperatives
- Uses its broad knowledge of information technology acquisition,
development, implementation and management
- Facilitates best practice governance
You project success revolves around relationships between:
- users - looking to technology to solve their business
problems
- technologists - tasked with delivering solutions
- project managers - managing budgets, plans and logistics
A major reason for failed technology initiatives is that
these relationships break down. The breakdown is almost
always gradual, and can occur for a wide range of reasons.
Even the smallest issue, if left unresolved, can sabotage
an IT initiative.
You can avoid the cost and inconvenience of relationship
breakdowns. Re-building relationships is invariably easier,
less expensive and a more satisfactory remedy than
starting the process again.
At IT-MEDIATOR
we realise that early intervention can actually strengthen
the relationships.
IT-MEDIATOR
acts as an objective third party to assist in managing
IT relationships to:
- Prevent issues from building
and/or
- Assist the parties to achieve an appropriate resolution
