Transition Game Plan for All is a Must in an IT Acquisition

by Mike Sisco

Most departments in an organization need to worry about just what they have to do within their own department. The IT department, on the other hand, has to know about everyone's plans in order to anticipate and plan the technology support required to help them achieve their objectives. Payroll conversions, office relocations and mergers, e-mail consolidation, and business application conversions take a lot of time and effort. In order to be supportive, IT must be involved in the due diligence activity as early as possible and learn about every department's plans.
