Interim Management (cont'd.)
During this phase, an effectiveness assessment of the IT organization is performed to identify and document those areas that the turnaround must focus on. It also establishes the commitments and objectives to be achieved by the Interim Management Team.
The execution of an Interim Management contract requires approximately nine to eighteen months to accomplish,
depending on organization size, complexity of environment, and problems to be solved.
During Transition Partners’ tenure, the Interim Management Team’s major responsibilities are:
- Managing daily IT activities
- Effecting quick turnaround in the performance of the IT organization
- Developing within the client company a strong, reliable, enduring professional IT organization, which includes finding and training replacements for the Transition Partners’ Interim Management Team
- Installing methods and practices for ensuring an ongoing, quality organization with appropriate business management governance, reporting, and control

"Transition Partners provided the best consulting support I have ever experienced. Other consultants provide recommendations and then depart; Transition Partners developed a total IT solution, provided an interim CIO to implement the plan, and then took the lead on hiring a permanent CIO to ensure longer term follow-through. We used to have an IT department in disarray with lack of direction, oversight and process. Now we have a disciplined system development process. I cannot say enough good things about the role Transition Partners has played in reengineering IT support at NISH . In this year of the Olympics, they deserve a Gold Medal."—E. Robert Chamberlin, President and Chief Executive Officer, NISH
"We were trying to put in a number of I.T. standards and best practices, and were understaffed and underskilled. We decided to go outside and name an interim I.T. director who could quickly assess our needs and instill best practices."—Robert Gebbie, Chief Financial Officer, U.S. Tennis Association
