Strategic Business Consulting Service for Nonprofit

Any successful journey needs to begin with a plan and a map to ensure you arrive at your destination on time and with the needed resources. Our approach to technology planning begins with an understanding of where the business intends to go and then focuses on the readiness of departments and staff to successfully make that journey. Technical planning occurs throughout this process, but can truly take shape once the end state, people, and process have been defined. Our recommendations span the entire enterprise and as plans and strategies evolve, our technology planning methodology
considers these changes to ensure IT is effective, efficient, and nimble.

Synoptek will partner with you to re-imagine your processes, technologies, and culture in response to changing customer needs, new technology, and internal or external pressures. Our methodology specifically ties business results to your technology investments and spend making your technology a business decision, not a technology decision.
