Executing the strategic or tactical adoption of new technology whilst ensuring true business IT alignment, rigorous management of associated impact and cost and timely integration remains an ongoing issue.
Ever increasing critical demands on time and resource leaves many organisations ill positioned to adopt technology at the most appropriate time and in a time efficient manner.
Opportunities to embrace technology in a timely manner that can drive service improvement, reduce costs and improve competitive advantage are not always realisable introducing risk to business competitiveness and potential.
Planning effectively and aligning adoption and capability criteria with business and IT requirements to ensure optimal adoption also presents a challenge and yet there seems to be limited outside support available from people who understand the issues.
