    Apex IT Business Assessment for Executives

     Info

    Overview

    The Apex IT Business Assessment allows Paragon to facilitate an intimate executive session, and in just a couple of hours, generate insights into an organization’s current IT maturity, costs, and risks. It provides a unique view tying together people, process, technology, business, and other domains essential for an IT organization to drive measurable strategic impact. The Apex IT Business Assessment will help customers achieve better insight and confidence in planning their AWS cloud strategy.

    Our Focus

    Let’s start by understanding your current state, including your strategy and struggles. Working with our AI-based software and master consultants, we can truly address your IT ecosystem of people, process, technology, and business alignment with enough options to ensure the right solutions are integrated into your environment. We don’t want to address every possible solution (this will just add to your workload, increase stress, and cause confusion), but what to jointly focus on with your team, to produce an outcome-based prioritized plan.

    Our Approach

    Using Paragon’s Apex maturity-modeling software with some high-level information you provide, we will quickly pinpoint what the current state of the IT nation is within your organization. This will lead to a nimble comprehensive review and paint a picture of your IT landscape. Taking a 30K foot view of the current state with key KPIs will assist us in defining or confirming your mission-aligned goals and the potential outcomes of our specific next steps. This takes care of the ‘science’ of IT Management; we will then delve into the ‘art’ of IT Leadership: how to enable effective change. By improving IT maturity and cloud adoption readiness, you will be able to make cloud buying decisions quickly, deploy solutions confidently, and recognize measurable value predictably. Suddenly, Cloudy becomes Clear.

    What You Can Expect

    During the initial parts of your confidential assessment, you will share your current situation: (the good, the bad and the ugly) with our experienced, ‘C’ level advisors. We will assess and collaboratively agree on the current state of your department based on the existing capabilities of your organization, its processes, and the technology it uses. We will then review and consider the viability of the vision and the strategy (if one exists) to get there. This will allow us to determine key focus areas that will build the foundation and contribute to your success. This will take the form of selecting personalized consultative sessions with our experts, providing:

    • A summary of your current IT risk, cost, and maturity
    • A gap analysis review of current low-hanging fruit and opportunities
    • A comparison of current strategy and suggested strategy outlining benefits of any changes
    • A dynamic, customized agenda to address the specifics of your rejuvenated strategy
    • Expert insight into solutions, approaches, and pitfalls
    • Mutually agreed expectations and definitions of success with business outcomes to be achieved within 12 months
    • A 3-6-9(-12) month action plan of execution
    • Confidence in you and your team’s ability to drive success with a trust-based partnership with Paragon and AWS

    Highlights

    • The goal is to identify bottlenecks within your IT organization that are constraining you from proceeding with cloud adoption and achieving greater value out of your cloud ecosystem.
