Typical Challenges Mid-Size Companies Face

Many mid-size companies struggle in today’s technology-driven business landscape:

  • Leadership doesn’t know how IT can help them address their most significant business challenges
  • Departments typically struggle with technology adoption; it is not surprising that Forbes reports that 84% of these projects fail
  • Your existing IT department or provider is mostly reactive, they want to be more strategic but are too busy to figure out how
