Current State Assessment
An important validation tool for any project.
Recalibrating your project objectives is better than blazing a trail to nowhere.
Imagine going for a hike out into the woods – in a location you’ve never been – for some fresh air and exercise. You’ve planned the trek and everything seems to be going well, but then you realize you’ve gotten off track somewhere along the way. At this point, you’ll need to rely on tools like your GPS tracker in your mobile device or even a compass to help you navigate. After bit of time and effort, there’s no doubt you will find the right path again.
If you think of your projects like a hike in the woods, a current state assessment is the GPS or compass. It’s there to help you assess your project’s current state to determine your proximity to the ultimate goal. If you’ve gotten off track, this IT current state assessment provides enough data to host a fact-based discussion and support decision making.
Current state assessments will help you develop a revised plan for your projects.
