ArmEngine Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 New Biz Proposal: My name is Edgar and I am in a professional Armenian IT organization called ArmEngine. You can visit http://www.armengine.com and check out our yahoo group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ArmEngine. I am the Public Relations officer in the organization and invite and Armenian who is educated and interested in Technology to join in. Although graduate degree is not required, we do look for member who are rather educated and are able to contribute to the group. The organization is less then six months old but has attracted over 100 members who posses MS, PHD degrees along with many years of experience. (Yes, it is a shameless plug) Biz Opportunity: Me along with other very highly qualified programmers and IT professionals are looking to start a consulting business. The idea is to create a outsourced IT department for small to medium size businesses. Eventually we will expand into specific consulting areas such as CRM and Security consulting. If you keep up with research firms like Gardner and others these two areas in IT will keep growing in the next 10 years. Now we are looking for Los Angeles area IT professionals only. Future expansion and interest from other IT professionals outside greater LA area will be considered. If you are a individual who feels like they can contribute to the group then please contact me for more info. We are planning to have a meeting early next year to discuss and hammer out our strategy in preparation for launching the company. I do not want to sound harsh but volunteering is something you must be able and more then willing to perform for the greater good of the organization. You can reply here with contact info and your area of expertise. Here is a General List of Areas we will concentrate on: 1. Leadership and Supervision This section covers some of the basic tools and strategies you will need to lead your department. Topics include team building, delegation, resolving conflict, negotiation skills, decision-making tools, and managing your time. 2. Manager Communication Being able to communicate clearly with subordinates, other managers, and superiors is an absolutely critical skill. This guide will help you get a handle on manager communications, from developing communications plans to giving presentations and crafting service level agreements. 3. Governance and Performance Metrics Planning, setting goals, benchmarking and measuring are fundamental to being a departmental leader and a top manager. With this resource, you will explore tools for setting goals and aligning your department with overall corporate strategy. 4. Budgeting and Finance Budgetary responsibility is an explicit managerial responsibility. IT managers have the added burden of recommending IT investments that can benefit the entire organization while meeting cost-cutting targets like any other line manager. Learn about the anatomy of budget development as well as tools for management accounting, return on investment calculations, and asset and inventory management. 5. Managing IT Human Resources Recruiting and retaining capable staff, defining job roles, and structuring your department are important tasks. This indispensable reference offers advice and tools for everything from writing a job description, interviewing and hiring, to tips for keeping good staff. 6. Purchasing and Procurement Get the lowdown on leasing, outsourcing, and evaluating a product. Included in this section are templates for creating a Request for Proposal and for creating a scope requirement for an RFP. The above services will be detailed and are still being worked on. Initially we will concentrate on following general areas: Computer Service For when you need problems fixed FAST. LA County wide computer service & user support. Support Plans With an Accuratech Support Plan, you can stop computer problems from occuring in the first place. Installation Service We provide an extensive range of installation services to cover all your IT needs. Antivirus Components Desktop PCs Handheld PCs Imaging Monitors Networking Notebooks Power Protection Printers Servers Software Storage I know this is a big post sorry if i left anyone confused please contact me i will clear things up for you.

Edgar style_images/master/snapback.png Edgar, Welcome to the forum! MosJan was trying to help you! He's probably one of the kindest members of the forum - at least kinder than me! You may have misunderstood his intent! By the way, if I'm Thales, Le Galois or Godel, can I make comments? Just trying to say that I consider Einstein as a second class "genious!!!" contrary to Popular Mythology! Regards, Siamanto. PS. MosJan, I apologize if you consider that I should not have interfered, like a "sherep!" Edited December 29, 2004 by Siamanto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
