The Risks - Know Them - Avoid Them

  • What liabilities do businesses have as they

reopen?

  • What are the moral responsibilities?
  • How will staff be impacted if illness returns?
  • What would be such an impact to owners and

leaders?

Why can’t we just reengage and go with the attitude that some will get sick?

How Can I.T. Help?

slide-46
SLIDE 46

Technology Access – A Paradigm Shift

  • Historically, the physical office has dictated how I.T. was

designed.

  • Company LOB applications often setup to work only in the
  • ffice or with a limited function when remote.
  • Businesses in March experienced a “shotgun wedding” of

being forced into Teleworking as a PRIMARY work environment.

  • Businesses who could pivot did so in the easiest way

possible to keep the staff working, employed and producing.

  • Collaborative Tools & Video Conferencing tools shot up in

importance.

slide-47
SLIDE 47

Measure Twice / Cut Once

Reassess the technology that was used in the pivot. Determine whether and how it should be changed and then permanently integrated into the I.T. environment. Let’s ask ourselves:

  • Are the tools we used before C-19 the best choices?
  • Are the tools we used to execute the pivot the best choices?
  • What infrastructure and technology changes will be required to

mature the “new” design?

slide-48
SLIDE 48

Whose Tools Are They Anyway?

  • What is the plan for staff to continue to use personal devices

(BYOD) to access company resources?

  • How has the chain-of-custody of the company data

and know-how changed?

  • What is the plan to ensure local documents on personal

devices are stored on the appropriate company resource?

  • If BYOD is to be ended, how will the organization manage

retention of data before sanitizing devices?

  • Will staff be reimbursed for home-office resources?
slide-49
SLIDE 49

I.T. - Longer Term Planning

  • You are living it - have you become aware of changes that

are needed?

  • Can you be better prepared in the event of another

lockdown?

  • Map out contingency, emergency plans and be ready NOW!
  • Organizations need to implement the changes of policies and

procedures created by a remote working environment! The Devil is in the Details
