With the ever-increasing pressure of rapidly evolving technology, complex compliance requirements, security threats and remaining competitive, organisations must have a clear IT strategy designed to deliver growth, reduce risk and drive efficiency.
There is a clear need to have a senior technology executive responsible for developing and managing IT strategy, decision-making and ongoing company-wide operations and projects who can successfully bridge between IT and corporate strategy, business alignment and business change.
We have a proven track record of providing strategic consultancy services to mid-market organisations, working with Boards, Senior Executives and Partnerships and helping organisations to move IT from being a cost centre to being part of a growth strategy.
Very often organisations are looking to outsource the IT function as a whole. Having the service provider acting as the business’s trusted adviser as well as supplying support and maintenance services allows a close alignment between us and the running of IT operations.
To help your organisation navigate the IT landscape whilst staying safe, profitable and innovative, Lumina Technologies can provide a dedicated strategic IT consultancy service. We will work as part of your organisation’s senior leadership team to provide leadership and guidance and assume responsibility for your strategic IT.
