Fulfilling our role as advisor, guide, project manager, or facilitator is only part of the value we bring. Underlying all of our work is our foundation thinking, formed from years of practical experience and knowledge gleaned from industry literature and research.

At left, we've summarized our thoughts on some of the areas in which we consult.

• Accelerating the Business Value of IT describes our approach to governance, strategy, planning, value measurement,and IT value communications (and internal marketing). Our approach integrates these into one coherent process surrounding execution of specific technology programs.
• IT Leadership describes our thinking on what's important in managing and IT organzation of the future, and it forms the foundation of our CIO-In-Reserve™ services.
• Delivery of value requires IT organizations to deliver and manage applications and, for most benefit, to serve as an innovative and disruptive force in improving business processes. At left you can find our thinking on Applications Architecture, Business Process Design, and one business process in particular - Relationship Management.

We invite comment and discussion.

"We were able to stay focused on our core business objectives because Avatar provided hands-on program management expertise ranging from our needs assessment, proposed solutions, budget approval, vendor selection and management through the implementation of our integrated accounting and CRM solution."
