Interim Technology
Management (CIO/CTO)
Among
the many good business reasons to use an interim, or temporary,
Chief Information/Technology Officer are:
-
To get
an objective professional assessment of your current IT
organization’s performance
-
To
ensure synchronization between IT spending and the priorities
dictated by the business strategy
-
To
devise and/or manage the successful implementation of an IT strategy
that maximizes technology benefits and minimizes costs
-
To “hit
the ground running” and manage a specific project to successful
completion, or step into a troubled situation and turn things around
quickly
-
To
provide professional insight into recruiting a permanent CIO or to
develop a junior IT executive into CIO material, maintaining a
stable and productive IT operation during the recruiting/development
and transition phases

The Advantages to Your Firm
Use of
interim IT leadership provides several advantages:
-
Flexibility - you can use an interim CIO or CTO on a "spot" basis,
focusing the right expertise precisely on the business problems most
urgently needing fixing – you pay for only what you determine that
your business needs
-
Leverage
- no long term commitment, no risk of a wrong hire, no lengthy
learning curve -- NewVista Advisors extends the inherent advantage
of the interim CIO / CTO with our guarantee of satisfaction
-
Immediate productivity - the recruiting process for a new CIO or CTO
typically requires 3-9 months, and rushing into a hire for this
critical position can be an expensive mistake. An interim leader
can keep your IT function from unproductive drifting while a search
is completed.
-
Recognized impartiality – sometimes an outsider with a universally
recognized lack of bias is the only way to break down organizational
“silos” and overcome political infighting that inhibits performance
