Outsourcing IT Management

Outsourcing IT Management

Client Overview

Our client is a startup founder.

Business Problem

The startup founder and his personal assistant were overwhelmed by the amount of work involved in running their business. Almost all tasks were performed by outside contractors and specialists that must be coordinated and kept on schedule. This responsibility proved to be too much for the small in-house staff.

The major challenges being faced included:

  •       lack of specific expertise
  •       difficulty communicating specific tasks between and within teams
  •       verification of job execution (deadlines, quality, fitness for purpose)
  •       access permissions management
  •       ensuring the outcome meets expectations

The founder reached out to Your ITPM for assistance in managing these resources and reaching business goals.

Outline of our solution

Your ITPM assigned an IT manager to take over task management specifically for this startup company. The startup founder submitted new tasks and business ideas directly to the IT manager, who then delegated the tasks to outside contractors and oversaw their completion. The IT manager provided clear communication between the founder and contractors, in language both parties could understand.

Additionally, the IT manager set up systemized cloud storage to securely organize business data. This included managing access permissions to ensure only the appropriate team members could access secure data. The IT manager also created documentation of all outside contractors for organizational and reference purposes. This documentation was used to set up and manage a calendar of payment.
