Why an IT audit?
IT that “works” can hide unnecessary costs, outage risks or a heavy dependency on one person or supplier. An audit gives management an objective picture before an important decision: growth, the departure of an IT lead, a merger, contract renewals or a change of provider.
EKUITY takes no commission on what you buy: the audit describes your situation as it is, not as a supplier would like to present it.
How the audit works
- Scoping: interviews with management and teams, scope and priorities.
- Collection and analysis: technical inventory, documentation, contracts, site visit if needed.
- Findings: observations, risks and priorities presented to management, without jargon.
- Action plan: costed, sequenced actions that you can carry out with EKUITY, with your current provider or in-house.
What you receive
- An audit report and a map of your information system
- A risk matrix, ranked by severity and urgency
- A costed action plan over 1 to 3 years
- A summary for management or the board
Who is it for?
- Small businesses without a CIO who want to know where they stand before investing.
- Mid-sized companies with an IT department who want an external, independent view.
- Local authorities, before launching a tender or renewing a managed services contract.
