What is IT Plan
What Information Do We Need to Help You with an IT Plan?
"What information do we need to provide in order for Succurri to help us with an IT Plan?"
A successful Annual IT Planning Consultation requires a deep understanding of your business’s current state and future goals. We work closely with you to gather critical information to customize your IT strategy. Here’s what we need to know:
Your Business Goals & Objectives
Understanding your business goals is crucial for aligning your IT strategy. Are you planning to expand operations, open new locations, or increase your remote workforce? Knowing where your business is heading helps us create an IT plan that supports those goals.
Current Technology Stack
What hardware, software, and services are you currently using? We need to know about all your existing technology, including computers, servers, network equipment, software licenses, and cloud services. This gives us a complete picture of your current IT landscape and allows us to make relevant recommendations.
Pain Points & Challenges
Are you struggling with network issues, slow software, or security concerns? Understanding the challenges you’re facing helps us identify areas for improvement and optimization.
Budget & Resources
What is your current IT budget, and how do you anticipate it changing in the upcoming year? Are there specific budget constraints or resource limitations we should be aware of? This allows us to recommend technology solutions that fit within your budget while still delivering maximum value.

How is Annual IT Planning
How Is an Annual IT Planning Consultation Different Than a Quarterly IT Review?
"How is an Annual IT Planning Consultation different than a Quarterly IT Review?"
While both Annual IT Planning Consultations and Quarterly IT Reviews are designed to ensure your technology is performing optimally, they serve different purposes and scopes.
- Annual IT Planning Consultation: This is a comprehensive, strategic review designed to set your IT roadmap for the entire year. It covers everything from budgeting and security planning to technology upgrades and business growth strategies. The focus is on long-term planning and aligning your IT with your business objectives.
- Quarterly IT Reviews: These reviews are more tactical in nature, focusing on the current performance of your IT systems and addressing any issues that have arisen in the last quarter. The focus is on maintaining the health and performance of your network, security, and systems, as well as making any incremental adjustments to your IT strategy.
Together, both services provide a holistic approach to IT management, ensuring that your day-to-day operations run smoothly and that your long-term technology strategy is aligned with your business goals.
