Your IT department can give a great help to the management of the company by minimizing the potential of distractions, interruptions or problems, using some very simple measures:

- Filter of sites that by decision of the administration of the company, must be outside of the place of work like facebook, instagram, twitter, etc.

- Help the organization to choose and use a tool to manage the company's tasks, so that there can be a tool that allows to perceive what is to be done, the urgency, who is responsible for what, what is pending, etc.

- Realize with the company, in their day to day, in which tasks is wasted more time and if there is a technical solution that allows to automate or significantly improve the productivity of these specific tasks.

- Have replacement equipment, so that when there is a breakdown of some equipment, it is quick to replace it, in order to minimize the impact of faults on employee productivity.

- Recommend technical redundancies in certain critical jobs, such as the reception of a hotel, so that you can continue working even in case of failure or failure.
