Delivering and supporting IT solutions The real test of how effectively your business uses IT comes when you actually implement new systems. To achieve the potential benefits you must use the system effectively. This means taking into account a variety of management, implementation and support issues. The supplier will normally handle the actual installation of the system, but if you have an in-house IT department then it will usually be involved. During installation, the system should be configured as agreed at the procurement stage. This means that the various hardware components and networks should be installed and all appropriate software loaded on the system. As part of the software installation, all of the outputs that are to be produced as regular reports should be set up and ready to run, eg weekly sales reports, monthly debtor reports, etc.
