IT Strategy

Challenges

In recent years, IT has become more a strategic weapon than a mere functional unit supporting the business. This shift not only offers a new set of strategic options but also poses new questions for corporate leaders:

  • By broadening the role of IT to exploit technology trends, how can we help deliver sustainable competitive advantage?
  • How can we make IT a significant driver of innovation while maximizing the benefits of business innovation?

At the same time, some traditional questions remain critical:

  • How do we align IT and business while ensuring that the IT strategy is flexible enough to adapt if necessary?
  • How can we focus the IT project portfolio to ensure optimal resource allocation and alignment of IT investment with business needs?

DC GROUP Competencies
