The pace of progress and advancement of business technology continues to create new opportunities for maximising efficiency and effectiveness of operational and information management services, for example:
- advances in mobile computing and remote access
- improved access to web based information resources
- increased capacity to store and access large amounts of digitised data
- increased range of options for facilitating business communications
However, deploying new technology without addressing the impact to culture and existing working practices beyond the provision of specific training will significantly impede the businesses ability to realise the return on investment (ROI)
- new ways of working to contribute to the development of the organisation's business functions
- development of products, services and delivery processes
- changes and developments in HR, Information Technology and partnership relationships
- restructuring of organisational arrangements for management
- defining, developing or acquiring new ways of working , internally and externally, to ensure that the business benefits are realised
