IT Solutions Assessment

Learn how to evaluate, compare, and recommend the most suitable IT solutions to meet business needs. This course is ideal for IT support staff, business analysts, systems administrators, and professionals involved in digital transformation, procurement, or systems planning.

Technology plays a critical role in business efficiency and growth. This course equips you with the skills to assess IT requirements, compare available solutions, and provide clear, strategic recommendations based on technical and business criteria.

You will learn how to:

  • Conduct needs analysis and gather user requirements

  • Evaluate existing systems and identify gaps

  • Research and assess new IT solutions

  • Recommend systems that improve productivity and efficiency

  • Support decision-making with structured assessments

This course helps you bridge the gap between technology and business needs, ensuring your organisation invests in IT solutions that deliver real value.

Ensuring that proposed solution designs align with requirements, assigning requirements to specific releases or solution components, assessing organisational readiness to operate the new solution, validating that the deployed solution meets business objectives, and evaluating the value of the deployed solution to the business are key considerations in this context.
