IT and Business: IT Increasingly Aligns More Closely with Business Goals than with Technology

By Dick Weisinger

A report from the Society for Information Management surveyed businesses and found that more than ever IT is aligning with business requirements and goals.  The findings of the report include:

  • The focus of IT increasingly is on business requirements rather than technology
  • IT management needs to demonstrate their value proposition to the business
  • Productivity and efficiency are important, but no longer the primary focus of IT
  • IT can provide and enable business improvements in agility and flexibility
  • IT has become an important part of every business process and product
  • Security and privacy is a top IT management issue
  • Innovation in IT needs to become commonplace to achieve revenue growth
