Independent expertise from outside can be needed to develop a vision when:

  • Systems are not adequate anymore in light of a new business strategy
  • Systems are outdated and a vision is needed for replacing them
  • New technological developments offer opportunities for business
  • Systems need to be integrated following a merger or a carve out is needed because a business unit will be sold
  • Systems are too expensive or not flexible enough.
  • IT Governance: organisation of IT, (de-)centralisation, standardization, in/out sourcing, vendor management, service level management
