Our support in the functional IT audit of an association
The association had been trying for several years to implement a new tool that it had not yet deployed to all of its employees. Following the departure of two consecutive IT team members, the association decided to start from scratch and seek the expertise of IT professionals.
The solutions :
Smartmapping conducted (IT audit) over a one-month period at the association’s headquarters :
Multiple interviews were conducted with 20 employees across 10 different departments.
This allowed us to create an Information System mapping, an organization model, an application classification, and a prioritized project inventory. It also revealed issues and led to the following solutions :
- Implementation of an existing system maintenance (MCO) solution to keep the IT system operational while waiting for the team to be rebuilt.
- Implementation of third-party application maintenance (TMA) to deploy internal resources for technical solutions to support the business.
- Recruitment of an in-house project manager, a Chief Digital Officer (CDO), and a developer to handle evolving, corrective, and regular maintenance.
- Coordination and deployment of the new solution, providing employees with a secure application and business environment.
Results :
- > Implementation of more efficient tools
- > Smoother team organization
- > A new work methodology for various teams
- > A new approach to support and work
- > Clear alignment of requests with a supported methodology
- > A CDO serving as a direct link between Management and IT
