How This Helps You
This toolkit eliminates the guesswork in evaluating and evolving your IT operating model. With 998 targeted questions grounded in real-world case studies, you’ll uncover blind spots that lead to regulatory non-compliance, misaligned budgets, and inefficient service delivery. The structured RDMAICS methodology ensures repeatable, defensible assessments that withstand internal audit scrutiny. By identifying where your governance, funding, or service integration models fall short, you can proactively redesign them to support digital transformation, reduce operational friction, and demonstrate measurable value to the business. Without this clarity, organisations risk deploying costly technology initiatives on flawed foundations, resulting in failed change programmes, duplicated effort, and loss of stakeholder trust. This toolkit gives you the diagnostic precision to act early, prioritise correctly, and deliver outcomes that matter.
