1. Today’s Turbulent Business Environment
•Greater uncertainty
•Increased commoditization
•Nontraditional entrants with competitive offerings
Shorter half-life of information (moving strategic enablers
to commodity)
•Tighter spending
•New technologies
•New products & services
•Changing customer demands and higher levels of personalized
preferences
•Multiple pricing, service, and utility models
•Government regulations, legal compliance, and safety standards
•Increased transparency of information due to the blurring between
customers, competitors, and suppliers
IS THIS REALLY NEW???
2. IT Problems:
• Business plans do not include IT plans
• IT plans do not include business plans
• IT plans focus on technology rather than
directly addressing business strategies
• Business managers do not see IT as supporting their
strategies
• IT projects do not support business strategies. IT spending
on infrastructure and application maintenance does
not support strategy
• Company budgets do not reflect the results of IT planning
• IT plans are shelf-ware that does not guide management
decisions, projects, or budgets
• IT governance practices are ineffective
