Enterprise IT is evolving—you’re becoming a business enabler and a hub for innovation across your organization. “The lines between business and technology are blurring,” says a recent FORTUNE Knowledge Group report. “For many businesses—technology is the business. In today’s digital world, the IT department is a critical driver of business success.”
As IT’s role in business continues to change, IT leaders are thinking about how enterprise strategies must change along with it:
- Shifting models – 95 percent of survey respondents say they plan to significantly alter their IT delivery model over the next three years, while 44 percent plan to run IT as an internal business in an IT-as-a-service (ITaaS) model.
- Becoming more adaptable – 54 percent identify implementing technologies and systems that help them be more adaptable as their top priority, while 70 percent say “emphasizing future adaptability” is one of their top three considerations when selecting IT solutions.
- Moving toward modernization – 49 percent say they not only plan to begin implementing new IT technologies such as virtualization, software-defined systems and cloud computing, they’ve already put money into their budgets for it.
