technology investment Management Method™


Technology Investment Management Method™ (TIMM™) groups business, technology, risk, and organizational processes and services into capabilities that can be managed as assets.

TIMM™ is a proven approach to identify and manage quantifiable business value for a technology portfolio. Implementation of TIMM™ enables our clients to achieve a validated return on investment for their technology portfolios in both legacy and new initiatives, whether business aligned (e.g. Intermediary Compensation, Electronic Medical Record, Knowledge Management, etc.) or technology specific (e.g. Business Process Management (BPM), Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), User Experience (UX), Event Driven Architecture (EDA), Master Data Management (MDM), and Business Intelligence (BI)).

WHO BENEFITS FROM TIMM™?


  • Technology Organizations that demand sustainable and cost effective management of new and existing technology assets from discovery through retirement

  • Private Equity Firms that desire more control in calibrating appropriate levels of technology investment for successful mergers and acquisitions

  • Software Product Companies interested in harmonizing their product roadmap with capability-based market demands

How We Use TIMM™


Business Strategy Alignment

We assess the compatibility between the perspective Operating Models ensuring that all gaps and synergies are identified before too much capital is invested. This service is helpful to strategy and execution organizations as well as troubled programs.

Capability Perspective Assessments

We assess the desired capability portfolio(s) to discover the detailed gaps and synergies between the chosen Operating Models, associated Goals, and existing Services and Processes. The resulting deliverables are then quickly assembled into actionable road maps to achieve the desired return on technology investments.

Portfolio Implementation Services

We provide support to our clients to build a sustainable Technology Investment Management capability to assure ongoing calibration of technology investments based on market conditions, internal changes, and regulatory pressures.

Portfolio Management Services

In certain situations, our client organizations request us to provide management decision support to avoid major resource investments in areas of Enterprise Architecture, Business Architecture, Portfolio Management, Risk Management, and Technology Finance. We rely on our experienced team of Technology Investment Management professionals to satisfy these requests.
