You need a trusted partner to help cut through the sales hype and determine which ERP software package best suits the organization you aspire to be. By staying software agnostic and independent we don't push any one software package or vendor over another to benefit our bottom line. Instead we help you understand the total cost of ownership of each possible solution and force competing software vendors to address your specific requirements. We are passionate about doing things right for our customers. With Compspark, you gain a team of technical experts with solid business knowledge.

TECHNOLOGY NEVER STOPS CHANGING.

Build an IT team that your business partners trust and value. Execute on a technology strategy that is secure, cost-effective, and provides tangible benefits to your organization.

To help you reach those goals and more, we provide high-level planning and strategy as well as the practical, day-to-day tools, systems and templates to put those strategies into action.

SOME EXAMPLES OF OUR MANAGEMENT CONSULTING ENGAGEMENTS

Executive-level facilitation to build a common vision among IT and business leaders. Established governance team and Project Management Office (PMO) that drew business and IT management together to set technology priorities. Resulted in an agreed-upon set of goals and projects for IT, better utilization of technology resources and clearing out a large backlog of projects.

One of the key components of any successful business is the role of Information Technology.

Compspark Interim CIO offerings can help your organization avoid costly leadership gaps without disruption when Strategic IT Leadership needs arise.

Why hire an Interim CIO?

A CIO vacancy can jeopardize key initiatives and reduce the effectiveness of an IT team. Whether the need stems from a sudden departure, guidance with specific initiatives, or need for a fresh perspective, we can have a Full or Part-Time CIO in place within days to avoid leadership gaps while the search for a permanent CIO begins. We also assist with the search and interviewing process to ensure candidates meet the needs of the company.

Business First

It makes us a little crazy when we see consultants who know everything about their area of technical specialization but nothing about the business that tool is supporting. Even our most hardcore techno-geeks focus first on understanding the business process and goals so that they can marry technology with business.

Balance Perfection with Practicality

We have to confess that we have more than our fair share of idealists on our team. So, they will be able to envision the best possible way to achieve your goals. At the same time, because of our long experience in the real world as an IT team we know that time and money often dictate something less than that pie-in-the-sky ideal. We've become masters at knowing when it makes sense to compromise and when something really should be done the "right" way.

Engage with Passion

We will be advocates for you, whether that's challenging the status quo or battling a vendor who's not coming through for you. Our team becomes truly engaged in every project they work on. They start with a profound curiosity and interest in your business and then develop a solid understanding of your business processes and goals so that they can develop solutions that really work for you.

Everyone Loves Show & Tell

While we value documenting processes and requirements, we know that when it comes to making decisions, nothing works as well as actually seeing a solution in action. We will show you sample best practice solutions and then will do development in chunks so that you can see how the new system really works and adjust it along the way. No black box here!
