Informatics Consultancy - Information Management Strategies

Our informatics consultants adopt an approach which recognises the importance of focusing on information systems and management rather than information technology.  The primary focus is on the information needed to run the business rather than the technology platforms. 

We believe that the most effective way of developing an informatics strategy which is understood, and supported by the organisation as a whole is through openness and inclusivity.  The strategy must be “owned” by the organisation rather than imposed on it. 

It is essential that the strategy clearly articulates the benefits which will be delivered and has organisational commitment to their delivery.  For public sector organisations we adopt a framework which identifies benefits and their impact in terms of five key categories:

• Improving business performance by increasing revenue, reducing costs and improving cash flow thus supporting value for money delivery
• Improving client (public) satisfaction by delivering a better informed, more responsive service
• Improving staff satisfaction by equipping them with the tools to allow them to focus their efforts on more productive activities
• Ensuring compliance with governmental targets, legislative and accreditation requirements
• Ensuring that commitments to other stakeholders e.g. partners and other agencies are delivered professionally and efficiently to maximise joint benefit.

Our informatics consultants combine practical, hands-on, public sector experience with excellent skills in information systems and strategy development.  These experiences and skills are applied within a proven framework approach to support our clients and their own organisational requirements.
