About Us
In a perfect world, every company would have its own Chief Information Officer to oversee Information Technology activities and ensure they are aligned with business objectives. In reality, only the largest corporations can afford a full-time executive of this caliber, though the role is no less vital to every other organization.
VIE is a Portland, Oregon company specializing in helping organizations "Bridge the Divide" between Business and Information Technology. In many organizations the divide in business is a result of a different vocabulary and a different set of objectives. Business typically does not speak the language of IT and IT does not speak the language of business. The results are a divide that can cost a business tremendous amount of money through the lack of understanding and communication. It is why the promise of IT is not achieved and returns on investment are not realized.
VIE provides executive level consultants that speak both languages. VIE CIO Consultants have all been operational executives and will drive the alignment of IT to the business objectives of the organization. In a perfect world, every company would have its own Chief Information Officer to oversee Information Technology activities and ensure they are aligned with business objectives.
