So, what is this process?

Leveraging the Microsoft® IO Assessment Framework, NSPI is helping businesses break the reactive IT cycle and move toward a vision of self-managing, self-healing dynamic systems and applications. As businesses advance their IT capabilities and achieve a sustained improvement in their infrastructure, they must take a longterm, strategic view of optimization and link these capabilities and optimization improvements to their business needs and strategy.

 How do you use it?

Optimization focuses on using an organization’s IT assets to support and advance the business. It helps businesses measure their level of optimization and drive for a truly people-ready infrastructure. Using these models, you can gauge the current level of optimization of your infrastructure, establish a technology vision for the future, and build a clear roadmap to achieving that vision.

Application Platform Optimization Model

The Application Platform Optimization model helps IT drive the business forward by quickly delivering connected, flexible, and highly secure applications. Using the Application Optimization Platform model, you can adopt a more flexible and agile application platform.

Core Infrastructure Optimization Model

The Core Infrastructure Optimization model helps you understand and strive for a more secure, well-managed, and dynamic core infrastructure that will help enable you to reduce your overall IT costs, make better use of IT resources, and make IT a strategic asset for your business.

Business Productivity Infrastructure Optimization Model

The BPIO model includes a complete set of technologies that helps streamline the management and control of content, data, and processes across all areas of your business. It helps simplify how people work together, makes processes and content management more efficient, and improves the quality of business insight while enabling IT to increase responsiveness and have a strategic impact on the business.

Next Steps

The first step in using the models is to evaluate what optimization level you are currently at. Once the current level has been established, the next step is to use the models to develop a plan on how to progress through each level in order to reach the target level needed for maximum business benefit.
