Are you looking for a strategic perspective on how your organization can effectively deploy and leverage information technology (IT) as part of your corporate strategy?

As an IT Strategy is required to define an IT vision and a strategic roadmap for developing IT capabilities that are in line with your corporate strategy, business strategy, business objectives and goals, a team of students will analyse the IT component of your corporate strategy to find gaps, or areas requiring improvement or optimization, and build a plan to address the issues found and maximize your business performance.

The deliverables will vary by project, but may include (but is not limited to) a working prototype, a strategic plan, a strategic competitive analysis deliverable, or a blueprint for IT investment.

At a minimum, the following will be delivered:

1. Terms of Reference: Students will create a scoping document outlining the objectives of the project, background understanding and deliverable plan.
2. Project Plan: Students will meet with organization representative(s) to devise the work breakdown, project milestones and prepare a detailed plan for completion of the project.
3. Project Execution: Students will work on deliverables outlined in the project plan. Teams will periodically communicate with organization representative(s) as needed to complete project tasks.
4. Outcome: The final deliverables for this project will be determined in the initial set of meetings with the instructor. Based upon your organization's needs, the deliverables will be set after the engagement has started.
