Information Technology (IT)

Many public and private organizations periodically face the need to update or replace their core systems. Recognizing this requirement, and determining a need for a fresh look at the current system is a milestone for most organizations. It can take time and delay the benefits from new system support. This process can be filled with challenges and hazards. In the past, some agencies have made huge investments that did not result in the envisioned solution.

Kelly, Anderson has successfully supported enterprise architecture efforts both small and large scale, while offering a path forward when staff resources are limited.

We can help analyze the existing system, recommend solutions, and monitor the implementation phase, which frequently can be the most difficult part of a system modernization initiative.

Kelly, Anderson can provide operational day-to-day support to ease transitions or to fill temporary requirements; aside from system enhancements or replacements, agencies face the need for staff on a short-term basis to accomplish specific tasks (e.g., operating manuals and handbooks that need updating, interim staffing support due to high unanticipated turnover, and programming to meet immediate needs).
