Technology Management
In the eyes of many executives, technology is both a blessing and a curse. New technologies can deliver unique capabilities and benefits; but all too often, technology costs too much, takes too long to deliver benefits or doesn't deliver them at all. Packaged systems are becoming commodities that fail to deliver differentiation and often don't align with business processes or strategies. The proliferation of products and platforms increases costs and complexity—leading to a greater number of failed or over-budget IT projects. Changes to products and software providers also increase the risks associated with major IT investments. Technology management is hard.
