CPA Voice: Be strategic about your next big tech investment

Written on Jun 22, 2023

Making the right investments in technology can improve your business’s sustainability and strategic position in the marketplace.  

“When undergoing a large tech project, it’s crucial to plan the project strategically before any real changes are made to ensure the process runs as smoothly as possible and is set up for success,” writes Jessica Salerno-Shumaker, OSCPA senior content manager in the May/June issue of CPA Voice.  

OSCPA is undergoing a technology transformation of its own to improve the member experience at MyOSCPA. The changes will entail an upgraded visual layout, and members will enjoy an improved search experience that will let them find quality education more quickly.  

In this process, Jason Blevins, OSCPA director of information technology, said it’s important to consider which vendors you’re using for the project, and if it’s more than one, how they will be able to communicate throughout the process.  

“We felt very confident that the vendors we chose could pull this off because we’ve worked with them for many years,” Blevins said.
