Budget Planning
A benefit of Virtual CIO services is that you will gain an understanding of how your current IT budget is being spent and if your technology investments are working to your advantage. With these services, you can understand where spending improvements can be made and what costs can be streamlined or eliminated.
Technology Road Map
Having a forward-thinking vision of where you want your business to be, as well as goals for immediate and future improvements, is essential to any successful organization. Virtual CIO services provide you with a technology plan that helps you identify specific IT solutions that will help you meet the short-term and long-term objectives of your business.
IT Strategic Planning & Analysis
When you utilize Virtual CIO services, technicians will work closely with you to understand your business goals for every aspect of your company. They will then develop technology initiatives and strategies to help you meet these goals. Your team can also assist with creating all the policies and procedures your business needs.
Technology Evaluation / Audit
The first step to adopting Virtual CIO services is for us to perform an inventory of your current IT systems. This assessment allows us to:
- Pinpoint any exposure or risk to potential lapses in security, data backup, power outages, and system downtime.
- Outline a powerful and comprehensive line of defense for your specific network against even the most evasive and deadly computer viruses, hackers, and spam.
- Recommend ways to speed up your entire computer network while possibly cutting costs on your Internet and e-mail service.
- Create Initial Network Documentation to uncover what is “under the hood” of your infrastructure.
Project Management
Large technology projects can get off-the-rails without a seasoned project management team at the helm. Many consulting services include a Project Management team to help keep your initiatives on track.

If you have critical technology needs or technology resources you cannot live without, then chances are you need a CIO / CTO to guide your technology team.
