Superhighways ICT Strategy

Your Superhighways ICT Strategy will typically be a three-to-five year plan, driven by your needs as an organisation. It is not merely an ICT ‘wish-list’ as it looks first at what you want to achieve as an organisation and only then at how ICT can help you achieve it.

For example, it will address issues such as:

• Could ICT help you communicate your messages more effectively?
• Could ICT help your service users access your services more easily?
• Could better ICT help you reduce costs?
• Could ICT help your staff or volunteers work more ‘flexibly’ (perhaps from home or from other remote locations)?

As with any strategy, it is only vaild as long as the assumptions that underpin that strategy remain valid. If your organisation changes (whether that change is in direction, or staffing, or location, or funding, etc) then your ICT strategy will probably need to change, as well.

Increasingly, grant makers now insist upon an ICT Strategy before funding any ICT investments.

Please note, Superhighways will not write your ICT Strategy for you, as to be successfully implemented your organisation will need to take ownership of it.  Of course, your Strategy will be based upon your Superhighways ICT Audit & HealthCheck and we will be here to support you develop your Strategy.  We can provide:

• Template Strategy documents
• Strategy Workshops
• ICT Healthcheck report presentation to your Management Committee
