The PEN Ed Tech Audit is a signature service:

Too often organizations dive into the latest technology fad – whether it is a new piece of software or hardware – with little sense of how that software or hardware will fit into the larger IT scheme of the organization. Social networking tools provide employees, teachers, and students with ways to connect – but how do they add to the primary mission of any organization, that of improving performance? Backend systems notoriously overlap and licenses go unused.

Pensarus uses its Ed Tech Audit process to produce simple recommendations for leadership. The Ed Tech Audit outlines extant software and hardware products, their usage, users, lifecycle, and cost. With this information, Pensarus calculates technology return on investment for the organization, particularly as this relates to improved performance. We further provide a summary analysis of the IT discoveries and make recommendations for better utilization and professional development.
