Achieving Operational Adaptability


Market changes, global disruptions, competitive pressures, and rapid technology innovations are shifting market landscapes faster than ever, prompting organizations to find technology advantages that allow them to respond quickly and stay relevant. The CIO has a mandate to implement applications and platforms that are adaptable to the rapidly changing needs of the business. Yet IT remains challenged by inelastic core operations, rigid processes, siloed data, expensive and complicated integrations, and technical debt. The inability of an organization to keep up with the rate of change—the acceleration gap—will widen without the right digital strategies. CIOs should adopt technologies that close the acceleration gap by:

  • Creating breakthrough business innovation and responsiveness
  • Implementing flexibility to create and support new revenue streams
  • Activating talent by providing a great employee experience with less friction and more engagement
