Make IT More Responsive & Agile
If the business asks for more, jump confidently with agility.
- Companies are changing the way they do business faster than ever, and IT Departments are unable to meet the organization's needs for rapid, business driven change.
- The need for responsiveness is not always driven by a need for speed. Improvements to revenue generation, customer satisfaction, quality, and availability are also drivers.
- Failure to be responsive to the business will result in the business outsourcing or creating their own IT capability
- IT's traditional approach to doing projects and providing services tend to be cautious, controlled and thorough – for good reason – but not perceived to be in touch with this rapid-fire business environment. New methods need to be found.
