Name For An It Project Needed
Posted By: Mariam on 12/25/2004 11:55 AM (CST) 25 Points
My company is planning to implement an IT project. The objective is to enable people to use technology and enable them to increase their efficieny. A number of people consider the implementation of IT as something that is there to take away there jobs, etc. They still fear IT. We want to have a name that is understandable, has a philosophy, makes the project appear as a tool for the people and not a 'conspirancy' against them. URGENT HELP NEEDED

Based on what you said the answer is perfectly clear:

Power to the People!

Not bad... Possible slight revolutionary overtones...

How about "Empowering You - The IT tools you need to get more done, more effectively"

Good Luck with the project.

Here's a word often thrown around to soften a name-

"Outreach"

According to me the word " thatzIT" should work.

IT as "it" is commonly used in cases like this and effective at normalising the IT function.

So themes like ...

"TrustIT"
"ITworks"

If your not into 'corn' (trust me I have seen the above concepts work well), how about:

"evolution"
suggests a natural progression, evolve to survive, becoming better etc

"innovate"
introduce new methods, changes; innovative adjective 1 featuring new methods; advanced and original: innovative designs. 2 (of a person) original and creative in thinking.

"vitality"
the ability to be able to survive and grow, energetic, and process a healthy capacity for vigorous activity.

Good Luck

You might put something about moving forward into your project name

Forward Progress, Forward Motion, Moving Forward

I'd be careful in what you name it as it could become an office joke, try to make jokes about whatever names you brainstorm to determine what seems unscathable, these would be conceivably bulletproof candidates. Ex Criticism: "Moving forward with canning my department is more like it"
"Empowering IT to take my job and get a bigger budget"
"The evolution of IT taking over the company"

Definite concepts to stay away from:
Alpha/ Omega
Power
Revolution
Solution (Some might take is as a solution for cutting staffing costs, you know?)

I found Andrews' TrustIT interesting but i would reverse the order of the the words and use ITrust
