In order to deliver targeted, market-specific solutions, we provide our services through three practice areas, which are organized to leverage our team's technical knowledge, domain expertise, and use of standard methodologies.

IT Strategy Planning:

IT strategic planning involves considering the long-term business goals of an organization, and identifying where and how IT can help achieve these goals. The resulting strategic plan contains key IT objectives that are tied to the organization's overall strategy, and a plan of action to reach those objectives. In every strategic planning assignment, VITCO concentrates on the important business issues facing an organization, not on technological gimmickry. Our job is to understand technology, its potential and limitations, so that we can define and implement successful IT strategies for our clients that meet their business needs.

Since its founding in 1996, VITCO Inc. has grown rapidly to become one of the leading providers of comprehensive IT consulting services for a customer base that includes both small- to mid-size companies, as well as numerous public-sector organizations. Through our well-developed expertise and broad experience in implementing IT solutions, a well-trained and motivated workforce, and our intense focus on innovation, consistent quality, and customer satisfaction, we have been able to provide outstanding support to our clients over the years. Our clients look to VITCO as a "Total Solutions Provider," in that we become partners in their process of defining and implementing strategic IT objectives. VITCO is able to deliver real business value in this process because of our service philosophy -- we are committed to facilitating our customers in overcoming all, even the seemingly insurmountable, challenges. We provide such value by developing customized, efficient, timely, and economical solutions to the clients' challenges. Customers look to VITCO to partner with them in defining and implementing full-life cycle solutions, lasting solutions that are timely, responsive, and cost-effective. Operating through its various groups, the VITCO team can address very diverse customer needs—from cutting-edge technology requirements, such as for Internet-based applications, to industry-specific requirements, such as in the engineering and financial sectors, to specialty requirements, such as comprehensive global outsourcing, to "IT staffing" assistance. In addition, VITCO has developed and is currently piloting several proprietary e-solutions/automation products targeted to the manufacturing, retail, and finance sectors.

Our strategic planning exercises typically include these steps:

1. Strategic business review - i.e. what are the objectives of the organization and what is its competitive advantage.
2. Preparation of a high-level business model.
3. IT assessment from the perspectives of data and applications, technology, infrastructure, and IT management.
4. Statement of vision and target IT architecture definition - i.e. what IT environment is required to meet the business objectives of the organization.
5. Development of an implementation program plan - the set of major projects and tasks that need to be accomplished.
6. Initiation and management of the program plan - i.e. executing the projects and ensuring that the business goals are achieved.

System Integration:

The Systems Integration Division provides end-to-end solutions for the client. VITCO seeks to have a long term arrangement with its clients in the form of an IT Partner to provide critical support for all their IT needs - current and future. As an IT partner, VITCO seeks to take a pro-active stance in anticipating the IT needs for clients which is in alignment with their enterprise strategies. VITCO has organized its end-to-end IT Systems Integration services in two distinct streams:

Specific IT solutions: focusing on the needs of a particular business sector. This would cover areas like, Manufacturing, Financial Services and Utilities.
