Technology SIG - Making Smart Technology Decisions in Tough Economic Times
Description
Today’s economy requires Law Firms and IT Managers to be even more conservative with spending than they would otherwise. Budget cuts may be mandatory, so it’s important to get the most of IT dollars.
IT Managers that are on tight budgets need to make IT decisions that keep your law firm efficient and operational without compromising IT quality.
In this round table discussion meeting our fellow TLOMA IT experts will explore with you some of these issues that face us in this downturn economic time.
1. Looking at your IT budget and working on the initiatives that will have the most impact on your IT infrastructure.
2. Look at the must-haves versus the nice-to haves and decide which initiatives you want to embark on.
3. Cost control - decreasing expenses. Look at consolidation and more cost-effective technology.
4. How does this type of economy affect IT staffing? - Leaner IT departments.
5. Paying attention to ROI (return on investment) and payback on technology initiatives.
6. Vendors may help with finding cost effective solutions and might make additional concessions to get your business.
