Your Questions, Answered

How does the IT Strategy Builder work?

The IT Strategy Builder was constructed for IT teams who are refreshing an existing IT strategy or have a strong sense of direction, but need help solidifying their themes and plans. Providing the tools and templates to create a compelling strategy and roadmap, this option allows IT leaders to independently develop their strategy – no consulting engagement needed

What does the IT Strategy Co-Creation Program include?

Leveraging the tools provided in the IT Strategy Builder, this program builds a custom IT strategy through hands-on collaboration across the IT organization. Rain Partners’ senior consultants facilitate a series of workshops to help your team enunciate the gaps and opportunities for IT, form strategic themes and action plans, and energize the entire IT organization for the journey ahead. We then prepare the set of communications materials needed to roll-out the new vision to stakeholders and to keep IT motivated.

How does MeasureIT® support IT strategy development?

MeasureIT® captures and analyzes stakeholder sentiment and IT engagement, the foundations for building an IT strategy. The IT Strategy Builder GPT then advances these learnings into themes and plans, to form an IT strategy that resonates with business needs and demonstrates measurable value. Executed annually, MeasureIT® then tracks IT improvement on targeted metrics and objectives.

Does the IT Strategy Builder deliver a customized strategy?

Never “off the shelf”, the output of any Rain Partners delivery is 100% customized to your unique environment because it is based on your data and your stakeholders’ input.

How do I ensure stakeholder buy-in during IT strategy development?

We encourage you to engage them early and often, starting with sharing the findings from MeasureIT®. Invite their feedback on strategic priorities and explain trade-offs transparently. This collaborative approach helps you align expectations and build the support needed for a successful rollout. See our page for Stakeholder Engagement for more ideas.

How does Rain Partners help with strategy implementation after development?

Rain Partners helps you beyond strategy creation by providing tools, templates, and expert facilitation to guide your rollout. From re-evaluating your Operating Model to executing on Quick Hits programs, we’ll help you ensure your IT strategy results in measurable business outcomes.
