Technology Assessment & Strategic Planning
Aligning technology solutions with your strategic goals.
Leveraging the power of enterprise information technology is not simply a matter of picking the most technically advanced alternatives. There are many issues to be considered, and each must be reviewed in light of the business goals of your organization.
Whether you're adding PACS, new network technologies, network security, storage area networks, disaster recovery, or all of the above, our technology consulting team can project the impact to your existing infrastructure and develop a migration plan to assure you'll be ready. We guide you through your options, advise you on how they affect MEDITECH and your other systems, and make informed recommendations on the right course for you.
JJWild's consultants can help you develop standards-based technical architecture that will help your organization meet the challenges of today's clinically-driven healthcare IT environments. The selection of technology tools has never been greater. While this helps make it more of a "buyer's market", it also adds considerable complexity to the decision-making process. We can provide the strategic and tactical information you need to make prudent technology investments, without getting caught up in the upgrade-frenzy of new technology. At every step, our consultants will map technology needs to your strategic goals, giving you the insight and the information you need to make informed decisions about the future of your environment.
Our technology professionals are thoroughly familiar with the broad array of infrastructure options available for MEDITECH, without being "married" to any of them. This well-informed, multi-vendor, multi-technology perspective ensures that you receive tactical solutions chosen purely for how well they suit your environment.
The best-crafted technology plan won't succeed without the support of staff throughout your organization--and every department has its own needs and concerns. JJWild consultants conduct face-to-face interviews with key staff members from each department, including administrators, nurses, and doctors to help ensure hospital-wide support for your IT investment.
