Her responsibilities are to manage how their money is being spent.  To do this she must evaluate daily costs, protect the company's data and infrastructure, and to budget for the future in technology, while delivering a product to her fellow employees of performance and better customer service.

A CIO has training on business related IT decisions, not on manufacturer's product lines, and that is to ensure she has the business needs as her top priority, not any particular vendor's solution.

Good results don't always come from one manufacturer, usually they come from many. She has to be conscious of how that new equipment achieves the company's goals, and enhances the existing technologies.  She has to understand how it will effect system fault tolerance, IP addressing, backup and redundancy, data availability and recoverability, renewal dates, routing schemes, Data and Ethernet security, social engineering, obsolescence, domain resources, applications, patch management, and policies and procedures.

At Marloe Group we understand that situation completely.

Every company faces this issue whether they know it or not.

We also understand how that position can be perverted into a career launching experiment, or an authoritarian regime that gets more powerful than the president of the company.

That is why we talk about geeks and hacks, in our ads. There is a difference between fixing something and being a part of a company organization, and it stems from the mindset.

We don't hate geeks, we understand them.

There is nothing wrong or bad about fixing computers, there are thousands of companies out there, but professionalism is not measured in ability.

You can always run out and take a computer to a local repair shop, and bring it back repaired, but at some point your IT department becomes something more, a better icon of your business strategy, and you realize your employees spend more time on their computers building customer relationships than they do with your customers.

Suddenly that interface has to be better.
