Superhighways ICT HealthCheck
Your HealthCheck is based on the answers given by your staff and volunteers to a questionnaire, designed to ensure the 'best fit' (i.e. fitness for purpose) between your organisation's existing ICT, your budget, your resources and your aspirations.
Your HealthCheck is likely to contain a number of recommended actions. These will be prioritised as follows:
Priority | Example | Issue |
High | Back-up failing, hard drives almost full… | Mission critical (e.g. could cause total loss of data or network/server failure) |
Medium | Running an old version of software from which support is being withdrawn… | Important (e.g. possible future failure of an application or PC, with no help available for repairs, etc) |
Low | Using an old monitor with additional speakers, taking up a large footprint on your desk… | Nice to have (e.g. specific problem facing just one user) |
Your HealthCheck may include purchase recommendations (where appropriate), along with a choice of suppliers (from the Superhighways Associate Membership list, wherever possible) and the prices you might expect to pay.
Your HealthCheck is only a ‘snapshot’ in time and will become out-of-date as soon as your organisation goes through any significant change. It is also the starting point for developing an ICT Strategy.
