Project Background
NamPower was established in terms of the Companies Act and mandated to provide cost effective, reliable supply of energy through generation, transmission, and energy trading. To archive these goals, NamPower needs an effective and reliable IT division with a formal and approved strategy. An IT Strategy is a comprehensive plan that outlines how Information Technology will support business strategy over a set of periods. A robust, coherent, and proactive IT Strategy means that NamPower can harness the power of IT, leverage the synergies between business processes, and capitalize on the efficiencies of the economies of scale. With the recent development of NamPower's Integrated Strategic Business Plan (ISPB), it is extremely important that IT division comes up with a strategy that best supports the organizational goals and objectives. The last IT strategic document came to an end in 2015, hence the company wishes to engage the services of an experienced consultancy company to facilitate the development of an IT Strategy aligned to the 2020 - 2025 NamPower's Integrated Strategic Business Plan (ISPB).
