As the rate of technological advances increases, companies are faced with new challenges. Product cycles have decreased and what previously took months can now be done in a matter of weeks. The rapid pace at which business needs continue to evolve has had a significant impact on IT strategy. CIOs and executives are now overwhelmed with the myriad of choice available to them. The decisions that they make are now more important than ever.
Done properly, a successful IT strategy can decrease costs, increase efficiencies and help build a sustainable competitive advantage. However, if the strategy is not successful, the results can be disastrous. Low employee morale coupled with cost overruns can and will impact the bottom line.
