Virtual CIO
Information Technology is at the heart of almost every business and the number one enabler for efficiency and cost reduction. Access to a highly skilled, knowledgeable and experienced Chief Information Officer is vital to success.
Unfortunately a dedicated high calibre CIO is beyond the means of most small and medium sized businesses, who are the ones that would benefit the most from the strategic vision such a person provides.
This is where Inspired Networks can help. Graham Walmsley has over 30 years’ experience in the information technology provision of a wide range of UK companies in both the public and private sectors. Working from the helpdesk to the boardroom in industries as diverse as healthcare, retail, automotive and finance, Graham can bring the strategic vision and contacts needed to make your IT projects succeed.
Ranging from the occasional “what do you think about…” phone call to full strategic planning and board support, Inspired Networks can provide a Virtual CIO to match your needs and your business.
Enterprise Architect
IT projects are getting more complicated, and with the emergence of the hybrid cloud as the preferred delivery method for most companies, the engagement of an enterprise architect is vital for success.
The days where a development team would design and build a system, then hand it over to operations for deployment are over. Attempting to bolt security onto a system as an afterthought doesn’t stand up to the complex threat environment that now exists, and “we have a firewall” doesn’t placate increasingly sophisticated auditors.
Security and Operations need to be involved at the beginning of any project during the design and requirements phase to ensure the end product is secure and easy to deploy and maintain.
This is where an enterprise architect is essential. A single person who understands the entire IT landscape who can ensure the requirements and needs of all stakeholders are represented and mediate between disparate teams, talking to them in a language they understand.
Inspired Networks can provide your company with Enterprise Architect services for your next IT project. With over 20 years’ experience in development and operations, our consultants will bring a unique perspective to improve communication and design, significantly increasing your chances of success.
Enterprise Architect can be integrated with Virtual CIO services to provide a holistic tactical and strategic vision for your enterprise.
