Forrester Trends: IT Execs Boost Focus on Business in 2007

Tags: tco, business process management, management, business process

Overview In this white paper from Forrester Research, analysts explain why business relationships trump technology concerns for IT execs in 2007, despite unfinished or vexing technical tasks. The paper presents the results of a recent survey in which 239 IT executives identified their top concerns for the year, which include:

IT/business strategy alignment
IT governance
Measuring and communicating the value of IT

Below these, but still important, are cross-unit business initiatives, migration to shared services, and the exploration of business process management (BPM) technologies.

These areas of concern highlight the growing realization among CIOs that they must help the business units of their respective enterprises achieve still-elusive efficiencies from technology. Download this informative white paper to learn more.
