What the IT strategy covers.
Assessment of the existing IT landscape — systems, infrastructure, data management, and IT governance — identifying gaps against business requirements and regulatory obligations.
Structured analysis of the technology capabilities required to support the business strategy — by function (finance, HR, operations, sales) and across the organisation.
Development of a prioritised IT roadmap — sequencing technology investments by business impact, implementation risk, and budget constraints.
Support for evaluating technology platforms and vendors — covering ERP, cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, collaboration tools, and UAE/KSA-specific requirements (ZATCA, WPS).
Design of the IT governance framework — covering IT decision-making authority, security policies, data management, and disaster recovery planning.
Development of the IT budget — covering capex and opex requirements for the roadmap, with a total cost of ownership (TCO) view for major investments.
How an engagement works.
Interview key stakeholders and review existing IT documentation to understand the current technology landscape and pain points.
Define the IT capabilities required to support the business strategy — with input from business leaders across functions.
Identify gaps between current state and required capabilities. Develop technology options to close each gap.
Build the IT roadmap — sequencing initiatives by business value, complexity, and dependencies.
Deliver the IT strategy document and present to leadership and the board.
Markets we cover.
How we differ.
- Technology choices driven by vendor preference rather than business requirements
- UAE/KSA regulatory technology requirements (ZATCA, WPS, FTA) not addressed
- IT roadmap not prioritised by business value — everything treated equally
- IT budget not connected to business outcomes — difficult to justify to leadership
- IT governance framework not designed — security and compliance gaps
- IT strategy built from business objectives — technology serves the business
- UAE/KSA regulatory requirements (ZATCA e-invoicing, WPS, FTA portal) integrated
- IT roadmap prioritised by business impact and budget reality
- IT budget built with TCO analysis — justified and defensible to leadership and HQ
- IT governance framework calibrated to UAE/KSA regulatory and data requirements
