The Focus of Technology Management in Sight
For
Business Technology leadership success, usually CTOs separate those in their organizations
who focus on business enablement from those responsible for IT’s delivery of
operational excellence. Directors get involved into business organizations’ key
roles which find and take a place only within the IT organization—like business
analysis, project management and solution configuration, there is a challenge
in business technology and business analysis in parallel With the economy
showing recovery, directors and executives are faced with a dilemma (believe
so) - if they invest too aggressively in building infrastructure, they could
get too far ahead of the curve and waste precious capital dollars, this is from
one side, on the other side if they take a conservative approach,
they could risk falling behind.
Business technology should not become a bottleneck, but instead enable taking
advantage of the opportunities.
Talking about achieving monitoring
system, in order to be successful, IT departments must optimize, protect and
promote their legacy IT investments with good management. Where business
technology departments are being pushed by vendors to buy IT monitoring
software with the belief it will save them costs-for instance- and without significant
investment, customization and testing - a monitoring solution ‘out of the box’
will never deliver great value.
The need to cut costs has led to the
cancellation of exciting technology transformation projects—the ones most
business technology staff want to work on. With resources also being reduced,
the majority of staff members’ time is spent keeping systems up and running,
which can be a real grind—involving constant firefighting of system management
issues.
Well-trained staff and keeping them
always well-motivated along becoming difficult and increasingly difficult to
motivate, retain and build IT skills internally. IT departments need to embrace
innovative approaches for the management and deployment of new, sustainable
technology.
