The BuyIT Best Practice Network is a programme of IT World Limited. Governance is vested in the Network members. Each subscribing and co-opted member has a voice and proceedings are managed by consensus.

Since the 80s, IT World Consultants has specialised in the specification, management and implementation of partnership programmes between industry and government, promoting the uptake of Management Best Practice and/or Technology Transfer, with a focus on ICT.

We have, over this period, demonstrated a significant track record in understanding market needs and helping to scope and deliver programmes to respond to these needs:

• Marketing strategy development
• Specification, management and implementation of industry/government partnership programmes including generation of sponsorship
• Scoping and running national conference and seminar programmes
• Development and promotion of ICT management best practice
• Hands-on facilitation of technology transfer and change management
• A great network and the best parties - making things happen!

As a result IT World's programmes have been particularly successful in achieving their take-up objectives.
