the objectives
Why it's important?
In the initial rush of the Internet, many technological initiatives were developed in a piecemeal fashion, without the perspective of an overall plan. In some cases, an inefficient use of IS resources and $ may have occurred. This plan ensures that limited resources are focused for maximal benefit.
Why I can help?
Often there are poor communications or even complete disconnects between the IS people's technical requirements, desires, and capabilities, versus the business wants, needs, and financial resources. By shifting the focus towards common business objectives there is:
- Focus upon the external market requirements
- Common understanding as to the relative priorities, capabilities, and expectations
- Clarification of the overall direction and a reduction in uncertainty
- Efficient utilization of limited resources
