One more fact is that somebody is not clear how he wants to use IT. They need to understand the potential of It and how it could help them and then he need to chalk out the features he wants. Too many features make the thing complex, unrealistic...

The McKinsey Quarterly has published an interview with Tom Sanzone, Chief Information Officer of Credit Suisse . This interview talked about his leadership principles, the challenges of integrating diverse IT cultures, and the evolving role of the CIO. Some remarks in this interview attracted my attention. I would like to discuss the role of IT (and therefore the role of the CIO) on the executive board level, and Credit Suisse’s approach to IT driven innovation. Whereas Credit Suisse is taking the lead in IT and Business integration, it is lagging behind with it’s innovation practice. IT and Business Integration Although many companies nowadays realize the importance of Information Technolo...

By : Vikash Jaiswal
Maneesh Jain  |  Added idea  "Taking BPM to the Next Level"  |  4 years ago
The majority of BPM solutions available today look and behave more like extensions of the “islands of automation” paradigm often associated with ERP deployments. They do not go far enough toward understanding that business processes are...

Essentially EAI tool is doing data integration - at all times or most of the times. Now if the integration is real time the amount/size of data these tools carry/process/transmit is small. As soon as an event occurs in a system its trasmitted to...
Somasundaram Natarajana  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  4 years ago
I have worked and currently working in EAI projects in the past. When the integration is at a very low level, we had issues. The tools we used could not handle to load.   But if the integration is at a relatively high level, which will result in...

Software as a service (SaaS) is the talk of the day and it will increase in its popularity since there a scope of opensource to push it higher and higher. Gartner predicts that SaaS will be driven by opensource in the future. And the prediction is supported by facts and figures. By 2010, 90 percent of software as a service (SaaS) providers will have some open-source component in their technology infrastructure stacks (that is, operating system, application server and database) to reduce software acquisition expenses, according to Gartner, Inc.   User communities are expanding around application-platform-as-a-service providers and will leverage open-source practices for sharing software applications.   As the number of software as a service users increase the opensource support will also grow along with it, definitely. The more SaaS vendors use open source in the technology stack, the lower their software acquisition cost becomes. Users, however, should not expect cost savings to be...

Most IT project evaluations are like the tail wagging the dog. They begin with IT strategy, rather than the goals of the business. In fact, IT strategy should be the third link in a chain that begins with business strategy, which in turn governs the product or service strategy, which then drives IT strategy. Lets understand this with a mid size CRM company Business strategy: Increase the customer base by 20 percent in the next year by providing increased functionality such as business operations analytics and executive dashboards. Product strategy: Develop an alliance with a business intelligence (BI) software company to add analytical capabilities to the CRM software. IT strategy: Create a new software platform that allows for easy integration with the BI software company and others. IT projects: Develop a Web services–based platform that offers universal data exchange and messaging between the CRM software and the BI software.   While this hierarchy reveals whether IT projects...

Saying no is perhaps the most important productivity tool that exists. Saying no is an art. It is also perhaps the most difficult thing to do for most people. I used to dread the occasions where I knew I will have to say no and I used to prepare for such situations for days. Now, I almost look forward to saying no to people and I actually enjoy the process! Find out how the change happened. 1. You are doing everyone a favour by saying no. Whenever you are saying NO to someone, remember that it is for their benefit! By saying no, you are • Giving the person an opportunity to look for someone who can do the job better. • Avoiding negative feelings about the person. 2. Visualize the alternative (to saying no) in vivid detail. • You will feel bad and will curse yourself for accepting the task. • You will do a bad job. • You will hate the person for putting this on to you. • The person will hate you for doing a bad job. • You should not have said yes, if you were not going to do a good...

Nicholas Carr's article "IT Doesn't Matter" (Harvard Business Review, May 2003) challenges the value proposition for IT. He argues that as companies become more dependent on IT for their day-to-day operations, so the emphasis switches to managing availability, reliability and security. As such, businesses should manage IT as a commodity. Do you subscribe to the Carr view? Do you align IT with the business in a purely supportive role? But innovations within IT continue to create possibilities and options for businesses that did not exist before. But where IT engages the business, pro actively and as an equal, companies will be able to continue to deliver strategic advantage through IT. The following will be useful in assessing the level of business engagement: - to whom does the IT function report in your business? For example, the Board (where the CIO/IT director is a Board member), the CEO (who has a business development focus), the COO (who has a business operations focus) or the...
