Developed by Gold Point Consulting, IT Strategy Maturity Model (ITSMM) Evaluates IT Organizations’ Maturity

Gold Point Consulting Group Introduced, today an IT Maturity Model that allows companies to benchmark and evaluate their IT capability against other firms. The IT Maturity Model is based on a 5-level hierarchy that measures each organization’s IT capabilities. Each level evaluates the degree in which the IT organization supports or drives the firm’s strategy.

The model measures the IT organization’s capability and readiness to meet the new challenges and opportunities presented by the company’s strategy. The model identifies vulnerabilities and gaps for IT improvement. The model charts a roadmap for IT leadership to raise their organization’s maturity level. Furthermore, it provides a benchmark where a company can compare its IT capability and maturity against peer industry IT organizations.

IT Strategy Maturity Model (ITSMM) offers many benefits such as self-assessment of the IT organization and its readiness to meet the company’s strategy. It helps to identify areas of improvement and justification for capital investments in those areas that need improvement.

IT Strategy Maturity Model consists of a questionnaire and self-evaluation process. The self-assessment document is priced at US$179.00 and includes the maturity analysis and customer report. The ITSMM assessment can be obtained from Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Strategy-Maturity-Model-Diagnostic-Questionnaire/dp/1536842656/ and also at https://www.createspace.com/6467771.

A recent survey of high ranking executives of the top global companies revealed that 90% of CEOs are not ready for the technology changes headed their way. Of that percentage, more than half don’t know how capable their IT organization is to meet the corporate strategic goals.

The IT Maturity Model is a critical tool for the C-suite to evaluate their IT strengths and weaknesses, gaps between the corporate strategy and the IT strategy, said John Huseby, VP of Client Services at Gold Point Consulting Group, “As we talk to more leading companies around the world, the need to higher level of technology leadership from IT is expected”.

“In a survey that we conducted recently, a vast majority of IT organizations don’t have a clear understanding of their capabilities and weaknesses. While most companies in the survey are focused on their immediate priorities such as security and infrastructure, they lack the long term vision and strategy alignment to prepare them for the long haul”, adds Huseby, “Most IT organizations lack the maturity necessary to meet the demands of their corporate strategy. The model reveals the weaknesses and gaps that IT leaders can focus their investments to improve.”
