NEWS Butler, chairman and founder of the Butler Group, also said that the situation has been exacerbated by an unholy trinity between the IT vendors, the large consultancies and IT directors. He said that IT directors, induced by the prospect of joining an exclusive "club", fail to make proper return on investment analyses of their IT expenditure. Butler reserved the largest part of his ire for ERP and CRM vendors, citing SAP, Siebel and Oracle, who he said have consistently failed to deliver value for money for large organisations. He says that IT directors, governed by a "me too" culture of following the crowd, fail to secure any competitive advantage for their organisations because all the companies use similar large systems.
