Technology Planning & Budgeting
Many businesses address technology planning and budgeting as an afterthought. Business disruptions and network downtime due to outdated equipment and software can cause financial hardship for any business.
Cyber-Path can be used as your Technology Director by helping with technology planning and budgeting strategies. This will assist your company with prioritizing short-term and long-term technology needs, and estimating costs involved.
Technology Staff Hiring & Training
Identifying and hiring the right technology personnel is critical for a dependable and efficient technology support strategy. The on-going training and testing of the technology staff is necessary to ensure that appropriate technical expertise is available when needed.
Cyber-Path assists clients with assessing technology support needs by performing a technical support needs analysis. We also assist with technical staff interviewing, hiring, and establishing training and testing programs
Project Management
Businesses often attempt to implement technology projects without a proper management strategy. This typically results in unnecessary implementation delays, over spending, extended troubleshooting and testing periods. Then finally extra money is spent to seek additional expertise to get issues resolved.
Cyber-Path assists clients with developing a project management strategy that addresses possible issues and roadblocks before they occur. We also actively monitor the status of the project using expected timelines, key participant meetings, and project cost formulas. Cyber-Path acts as a facilitator and works to eliminate problems that could derail a project
Vendor Management
Proper vendor management is a key component to the success of any technology program. Businesses often use numerous vendors to provide specialized technology services, but aren’t sure where each vendors responsibilities stop and start.
Cyber-Path assists clients with vendor identification, research, selection, and management. We ensure vendors are acting on behalf of our clients and are providing services with an expected level of competence. We have found that vendors improve their response times and service levels when they are effectively monitored.
Business Continuity Planning & Testing
Most businesses consider a media backup strategy to be sufficient for disaster recovery planning. However, a reliable Business Continuity Plan is much more comprehensive. It should include key personnel responsibilities, a temporary business location, and a periodic testing schedule.
Cyber-Path assists clients with identifying critical data and technology services, designing a plan to access the data and services as quickly as possible following a business disruption, and on-going testing to ensure the reliability of the plan
