In brief: During this online workshop 'Overview of your systems and data,' you will map out your own application landscape in two hours. You'll discover areas of duplicate work, data risks, and unnecessary costs, and conclude with concrete improvement points. After the workshop, we will schedule a one-hour personal consultation with an IT expert.
Why an overview of your systems and data is important
A lack of overview in systems and data costs time and money. It leads to duplicate work, unclear data storage, and risks around privacy and cybersecurity. We often see that digital tools have developed independently, without anyone having a complete picture. Gaining control over your digital organization may seem technical, but it directly impacts your daily work. When you have a clear view of your systems, data, and processes, you can work smarter, make better decisions, and have more time for your substantive work.
You prevent working with fragmented systems or duplicate tools and gain better insight into how information flows through your organization. This not only helps improve processes but also supports making informed decisions about new systems or suppliers.

After this workshop:
- you will have insight into digital security risks and your digital crown jewels

What does the consultation after the workshop entail?
After the workshop, you won't be left alone. You will have a personal consultation with an IT expert. This expert will review your application landscape with you, help prioritize improvement points, and provide advice on next steps and strategy.

This way, you can directly translate the insights from the workshop into a concrete and achievable action plan.
