  CIO / CTO / IT Manager
Technology Strategy, Planning, and Management, St. Louis MO

We work with the executive management team to architech an effective strategy for managing their current and future investments in IT hardware, software, services, and staff.

Many of our customers leverage us in a part-time role because they prefer access to a full-service IT department on a contracted, part-time basis rather than having to hire a full-time employee.  

Some of the skills we provide as a part-time CIO / CTO / IT Manager are as follows:

  • Create an IT strategy that aligns with the needs of the business stakeholders and considers the latest in emerging technologies.
  • Create accountability within the IT staff and vendors due to industry knowledge.
  • Build an annual budget.
  • Create a procurement strategy for purchasing the best goods at the best price and appropriately managing on-going vendor relationships, such as: 
    • PCs and laptops
    • Servers 
    • Other network hardware and software
    • Packaged software applications (MS Office, financial, wireless, mobile, industry-specific, etc...) 
    • Support renewals (anti-virus, servers, firewall, backup software, domain registrations, etc..)
    • Phone connectivity (Voice T1, SIP trunk, Dynamic T1, POTS lines, etc...) 
    • Internet connectivity (Internet T1, DSL, Cable)
