Benchmark Ultra-Lite
One of the biggest challenges to every senior IT manager today is how to quickly get information that will help them answer questions about how their IT organization performs relative to others in their industry or similar size enterprises. With our 'Benchmark Ultra-Lite' offering, clients can now quickly obtain high-level industry baseline benchmarks from similar organizations and industries, in order to better understand how their investments impact the organization, and where key changes need to be made to improve efficiencies and be more responsive to customers.

Consulting Services Delivery

Our offering provides a quick report of up to twenty performance metrics per assessment module for workload, costs, staffing, sourcing, complexity and ageing, against industry peers and against our total benchmark database — at a fraction of the price of traditional IT benchmarking services.

The reports provided by our new offering are standardized and easy to understand. The metrics for each of our assessment modules are from our database, which contains information from over twelve hundred customers across twenty five industries. The metrics provide important data regarding such focus areas as hardware, software, sourcing and personnel associated with each functional area of an IT organization.

Description

This service offering provides a fast, cost efficient, quality high level benchmark report that supports the client’s IT investment and budget needs. Through our state-of-the-art analysis system, we show statistical results which include selected peer organizations and produce final reports and charts.

Deliverables

Standard

TAC’s Benchmark Ultra-Lite service offering provides the client with a set of up to twenty predefined metrics associated with each of our assessment modules or functions (distributed, help desk, mainframes, mid-range servers, wide area data networking, telecommunications—wireline, telecommunications—wireless (cellular), telecommunications—PBX, application development, and application support). The client may choose from two to all ten of our assessment modules for their report.

There is no data collection required, as this is a report of industry benchmark data contained in our database, and not a comparative analysis of the client and an industry.

Optional

The industry peers utilized can be filtered by providing minimal data point estimates (one per module). This enhanced set of comparisons provides valuable insight into the workload and complexity driving the performance of your IT organization.

Target Audience

CIO (primary), CEO, CFO
