As a small business putting a Cheif Information Office on the payroll is typically out of the budget, but the services a CIO can offer are still beneficial to small and medium businesses. Do you find yourself asking, how much should I spend on Information Technology?  Am I spending too much or even too little? Is your company utilizing technology as a game-changer or is it still that general ledger account that you continue to invest in with little to no return? Your company will see many of the same issues as a Fortune 500 organization.  You can leverage the value of a CIO without the ongoing expense.
