HEADSTART®
"IT Efficiency" - implementing operational process
Headstart® is the tool we utilize to customize and implement "IT Efficiency" processes. It provides SMB's access to a suite of "IT Efficiency" processes that are aligned with industry recognized standards, frameworks, methodologies and "best practices". Its purpose is to enable SMB's the ability to implement "IT Efficiency" processes without having to spend the time, resources and money to design and build them. The Headstart tool also provides SMB's access to a structure they can utilize to document, customize and optimize their existing operational processes - implementation of these processes leads to increases in operational performance and bottom line. It can be applied to one or many IT operational disciplines - (see) IT Operational Disciplines.
"IT Efficiency" - implementation made easy
Hea® exercise includes interviewing organizational staff and management, interpreting and evaluating interview responses against a predefined set of IT operational "IT Efficiency" criteria, and delivering the results to both management and staff. The duration of the diagnostic exercise is dependent on the size of the organization, the number of operational disciplines being assessed and the time and availability of staff and management to contribute. Once completed, the SMB will have identified where IT operational disciplines can be improved and the priority in which they can be addressed.

HEADSTART
QAIassist® Headstart® is a set of pre-defined processes organizations apply to increase the efficiency of their IT Operational Disciplines.
All QAIassist® Headstart® processes have been designed in alignment with industry recognized standards, frameworks and "best practices". In being pre-defined they allow IT to incorporate practices that are proven to be efficient. IT resources can focus on implementing these processes rather than being encumbered in designing and developing them on your own.
