I.T. Strategic Assessment

The I.T. Strategic Assessment is my cumulative undergraduate experience project. This project was completed on a small business local to Louisville, Kentucky. The assessment included an overview of their current information technology, problems they are currently having with information technology, and where they want to be in 1-5 years. The report also included a physical count of all hardware and software as well as a strategic analysis of the business and where it is bench-marked compared to other similar businesses.
