Information technology leaders are under pressure to control costs, introduce new services and align IT investments with corporate objectives, however achieving these types of improvements at the speed and efficiency required in IT is an increasingly complex challenge. IT and its stakeholders must overcome a host of issues ranging from the building and integrating of solutions, to managing new technology trends, to controlling operations, all on a limited budget and strenuous timelines.
To further complicate matters, business executives sometimes question IT's ability to support the organization and more often than not, the scrutiny falls on overlapping and redundant applications and reveals them to be inefficient. The result is organization becoming frustrated by what they perceive as IT's unresponsiveness to requests for changes in requirements and/or new solutions and their capabilities.
