Assignment:

For this milestone, select a case study.  (I attached the selected case study.)

Now, being department’s IT director you will submit an organizational profile on your chosen organization (See organization name in attached case study). This organizational profile should give a brief overview of the company you choose from an enterprise level and then start to focus on the IT department of that company.

Below, you will see an outline of critical elements that must be addressed.

• 1.       The critical elements highlighted in yellow represent the critical elements that you should answer from the perspective of the company as a whole, from the enterprise level.
• 2.       The critical elements highlighted in blue will focus on the IT department at your company of choice.

Make sure that you craft a vision and mission statement for your IT department that is different from your company’s enterprise-level vision and mission statements but that aligns with the greater company as a whole.
