Making IT Budgets Strategic - Salt Lake City, Provo, Utah
Summary
Through these technologies, CIOs are able to collect data, both technical and competitive, thus providing the organization with multiple internal and external, actionable scenarios. One scenario might be: an agile infrastructure provides a reallocation of costs from a CapEx to an OpEx model thereby potentially freeing up additional funds to invest in growth strategies. The internal "support" investment ensures the organization is utilizing the tools and infrastructure to secure its current and future operations. Too many times the lack of foresight and planning leads to an inability to define an IT Budget as strategic but is extremely important given the change and speed of the market. This powerful, business aware CIO is now helping to delineate the "what the organization wants to achieve", and "how those investments" will drive the execution.
