Teagasc is the agriculture and food development authority in Ireland. Its mission is to support science-based innovation in the agri-food sector and the broader bioeconomy that will underpin profitability, competitiveness and sustainability.
Following a public tender, I was retained to carry out an ex post review of the implementation of Teagasc’s IT Strategy and to make value for money recommendations. I used PRINCE2 for project management; ISACA’s CobiT and ValIT for benchmarking maturity; and an approach based on the UK OGC Gateway Review process in the assessment.
