Maximize the Business Impact of
Technology
Founded
in 1986, The Beta Group has built its business by developing and
implementing methods for helping companies produce the maximum business
impact from limited IT resources and dollars. The foundation of their
practice is a suite of methods called
New Information Economics (NIE), which can take a business from business
strategy to IT actions, and ultimately, to business results.
NIE
is based on a very simple set of core principles:
-
A
company should only spend money on IT that directly supports its business
strategy and its operational effectiveness, and should not spend money on
IT that doesn’t. Period.
-
A
company can control IT costs and at the same time improve IT’s bottom-line
impact...
-
...by consistently and persistently selecting the best IT investments, and
eliminating underperforming existing IT activities.
When a company does this, they can move from the status quo into the
IT Improvement Zone , achieving
higher business impact with controlled and even reduced IT costs.
As founders,
Robert J. Benson and Thomas L.
Bugnitz believed
that they could improve their client's measured business performance and
improve the information technology organization's contribution to the
business. Today, 17
years later, The Beta Group is respected globally for its innovative
approach to providing high-level consulting, facilitation, and education
services that help companies maximize the use of technology to better
build their businesses. Its clients represent a wide range of companies,
industries, and government agencies around the world, all working toward
getting the biggest bang for their IT dollars.
