IT Planning

Strong IT Planning allows for smart decision making and offers value to a business in many different ways, including: 

• Helping to prioritise IT purchasing decisions based on the timeframe of particular goals
• Allows money to be saved on unnecessary purchasing
• Allows for cost effective network design and network upgrades
• Allows all resources to be allocated effectively

It is not uncommon for smaller businesses not to have a formal IT planning document. However, this can lead to a number of disadvantages including:

• Unnecessary costs from unplanned software and hardware replacements
• Lack of information when investment decisions are made
• Reactionary approach to issues, rather than a planned, preventative attitude 
• Incorrect systems being used resulting in decreased efficiency
• Incorrect resource allocation resulting in a decreased efficiency

An up to date IT Plan should be developed and implemented by every business, and not be something that just sits on the shelf for 12 months.
