Yes, You Need a Business Continuity Plan

With IT now so pervasive, few organisations can function normally when faced with a severe failure. Even minor problems can result in a huge amount of lost productivity across an organisation and impact revenue.

A Virtual CIO can create a plan that will do more than keep the lights on. They will assess business risk areas, identify high priority systems, and create plans and processes to minimise any impact. Key action items include ensuring staff are trained to quickly identify issues and react correctly, and that alternative plans are tested to ensure they work as expected.

Begin Your Digital Transformation

Digital Transformation is not about being a pioneer and taking unnecessary risks. It’s about the right advice so you can leverage technology for predictable improvement.

When assessing the best path for your digital strategy, a vCIO from First Focus has a wealth of expertise at their finger-tips. Rather than relying on the knowledge and experience of an individual or a vendor, they can tap into dozens of technical specialists and a bank of project outcomes, to plot the most effective course.

Zero commission. Vendor agnostic. Pure results.

Luna Lu

Executive Assistant, CI Australia PTY LTD

CI Australia started working with First Focus in 2019. We were looking for an MSP that could deliver increased service quality with pricing that matched our budget. First Focus was originally in our top three preferred providers. What really helped them stand out was their proposal – there was no over- or under-scoping – and their reputation for good people and services.
