In today’s highly competitive business environment where success is driven as much by “what you do” as “how you do it,” modernizing the IT landscape is a strategic priority. Decision-makers are increasingly under pressure to streamline business operations, comply with evolving legal/regulatory requirements, and bring new products and services to market faster. IT modernization is critical to achieve these goals. Unfortunately, for many decision-makers, determining how, what, and when to modernize can be a difficult, time-consuming, and costly decision. Moreover statistics show that a large percentage of IT Modernization projects are hampered by cost overruns, skill shortages, and a lack of visibility into key business process value streams.
Listen to Forrester analyst, Phil Murphy, and Guido Falkenberg from Software AG to discover the keys to a successful IT modernization strategy. Learn why organizations around the world are leveraging a new process-driven approach to identify, prioritize and implement strategic roadmaps for IT modernization.
