What is a technology assessment?
A technology assessment is like a health check for your business technology. It looks at your computers, software, accounts, vendors, backups, security settings, documentation, and support process. The purpose is to find gaps before those gaps become expensive problems.
What to review first
Start with the basics: internet service, email, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, file storage, phone systems, accounting software, line-of-business software, backups, antivirus, firewalls, and user accounts. These are the tools most businesses depend on every day.
Questions to ask
Ask simple questions. Who supports this system? Who has admin access? Is MFA turned on? Is it documented? Is it backed up? When was it last reviewed? What happens if it fails? These questions reveal whether the business is prepared or just hoping everything keeps working.
Why documentation matters
If only one person knows how something works, the business has a risk. Good documentation helps employees, managers, vendors, and consultants understand what exists and how to respond when something changes.
