Improve operational efficiency and lower cost

IT Strategy & Architecture

TORI can provide IT Strategy and Architecture solutions that support our clients in aligning their business and IT strategies.  Our methodology is to assess, plan and design an IT Strategy and Architecture that supports the organisation’s goals. 

We provide the technical design for an effective implementation by leveraging existing IT investments, mitigating risk and implementing new enabling solutions and technologies.  With our industry-leading expertise in Business Process Management (BPM) and Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), combined with established frameworks and road map optimisation methodologies, we can help our clients to maximise their adoption of, and return on, their investment in these architectures.

We assist our clients in addressing the following questions:

  • Do our IT services align with the business goals and objectives?
  • Are we enabling the business to work smarter and change quicker to meet market demands?
  • Does our architectural framework allow us to minimise the costs of providing these services?
  • Do we have an effective IT cost strategy?
  • How do we articulate a clear IT strategy to our staff  and our sponsors
  • How can we help our staff to adapt to the new processes, organisation and technology
  • How can we manage or remove monolithic legacy applications that are difficult to change to meet business needs
  • How can we integrate conflicting architectures

Our approach enables our clients to succeed by maximising returns on technology investments and reducing the total cost of ownership by:

  • Working with people and process – to assist in the optimisation of business processes through training and development, mentoring and consulting
  • Delivering projects and programmes – by running or supporting the change projects throughout all phases
  • Developing strategy and road maps – by providing facilitation and ideas for corporate and IT visioning, planning and goal setting
  • Providing service and delivery – by designing, transitioning and running high quality delivery of development or support services
The key to ensuring that the IT function is an enabler for business, not just a cost centre, is to adopt a service-based framework aligned to the needs of the business.
