IT STRATEGIES

Staying true to the beliefs of the Sherpa culture, TechSherpas continues to explore and challenge our student's mastery of information technology through guidance, understanding, and friendship. TechSherpas contributes its "climb" to success on six S.H.E.R.P.A character attributes:

  1. Strategic IT Services: TechSherpas IT strategy services help business leaders to maximize shareholder value through the effective exploitation of their organization's information and information technology. Our approach to IT strategy is different because it spans the visioning and scoping of the required change, its justification, its design and its implementation, so that it consistently creates value for our clients.


  2. Healthy IT Management: IT managers face the challenge of simultaneously improving performance, speed and quality while reducing overall costs and establishing a more flexible cost base. Managing multiple disparate suppliers and maintaining staff morale add further levels of complexity to the challenge.
    TechSherpas helps IT management overcome these challenges.

  3. Effective IT Infrastructure and Services: TechSherpas has a proven track record in delivering the strategy, design, sourcing and implementation of network-based IT infrastructure and services. TechSherpas helps companies become networked organizations by harnessing the potential of IT infrastructure so that it delivers optimum benefit and value for the money. We work for both corporate clients and government organizations across industry and commerce.


  4. Risk Assessment: Companies today must defend several interconnected networks which have opened more potential security holes than ever. Meanwhile, potential threats have increased, with new types of viruses, hacking attacks, and other threats affecting wireless and wired networks. Companies need to protect their diverse networks with multiple security tools, but they also need to integrate these means into a coherent system that is protected and manageable, and which does not inhibit data and voice performance. TechSherpas helps companies by completing complex risk analysis' involving both business and IT functions while addressing in-house and external vulnerability.


  5. Professional Integration and Solutions: TechSherpas delivers IT solutions to complex business problems. The resolution of a difficult business problem is often reliant on the delivery of a unique information systems (IS) project. Yet the majority of such IS projects fail to deliver business benefit within budget or schedule. So businesses increasingly want assurance that the right IS solutions are defined and delivered reliably – but struggle to achieve this.

  6. Agility: TechSherpas' flexible approach is appropriate for clients about to embark on a major IT-enabled change program, but is equally effective for resolving issues with ongoing change programs that have run into trouble. Our team of IT consultants bring business insights, knowledge of industry best practice and cross-sector experience; analyze and facilitate skills to assess what is really important, debate key issues with senior managers and prioritize with them; bring imagination and knowledge of trends in IT to devise a vision of the future for information systems; bring deep knowledge of the practicalities of strategy delivery; bring thoroughness and communications skills to devise a business case to support the envisaged change; and initiate energy and tenacity to ensure that the benefits are delivered.
