What did the frustration feel like as you tried to solve your problem?
It is difficult to be strategic in the IT space when a company is growing rapidly. The "fire fighting" seems to always take precedent and not having designated resources to work on strategic projects was becomes a hindrance to growing the business.
Take us to the moment when you realized iDENTIFY was actually working to solve your problem.
As the executive over the IT department, I am not involved in the day-to-day technical conversations. Our quarterly update meeting with iDENTIFY provided a venue to allow me to really understand the level of cooperation and partnership that was occurring between our teams.
Tell us what life looks like now that your problem is solved or is being solved.
Currently I get monthly updated and I am able to track the progress of strategic initiatives that we have tasked iDENTIFY with. The transparency of the engagement and the progress being made is easily shared with other members of the executive team. This creates a culture of trust and allow everyone to see the value of iDENTIFY.
