Consulting & Projects |
Consultants are involved for a variety of specific reasons. Perhaps to solve a problem, or to do some regularly scheduled maintenance. Hiring a consultant for a specific function one time or on a limited basis is more cost effective than having someone with the same skill set and knowledge on staff full time.
Projects are typically something that is a one-off or happen less frequently than routine maintenance but are still deemed important to maintain the integrity of your IT Strategy goals. Other reasons for using consultants would include: - Provide the technical skills that are not on staff at the client - Provide an objective view assessing the environment - Less susceptible to internal politics or sensitive situations - When shorthanded, consultants can back-fill a position - Less expensive than full time staff for short term implementations. |
