Over the last few years CIOs have needed to cut costs and infrastructure has often been a prime target. Rather than introducing new technologies that could have accelerated productivity, many companies were forced to maintain their existing infrastructures through a series of quick fixes with many spending too little on new systems. Today these organizations are looking towards optimized, integrated and cost effective IT infrastructures to drive high performance with cost, security and complexity being the key near term drivers of infrastructure investment. CIOs and other heads of IT, who often grapple with infrastructure complexity and cost, must consider six key questions:
- What infrastructure decisions can our organization make now to enhance our business agility and lead us to growth in the future?
- How can we move from an inflexible, complex infrastructure toward a flexible environment that scales to meet the basic business design?
- How can we understand and incorporate new infrastructure technology trends and models such as virtualization, software-as-a-service (SaaS) or cloud computing into our business?
- How can we leverage the infrastructure as an enabler to help achieve desired business outcomes, such as cost reduction, increased productivity?
- How can we achieve operational efficiency through infrastructure transformation and more effectively demonstrate the value of IT to the business?
- What role should sourcing models have in stimulating our IT transformation?
