What IA means for the Information Technology Executive…
Information Architects is in the business of helping companies operate more productively and profitably though the use of the information solutions we provide.
More and more IT executives are playing a larger role and recognized a key strategic influence within companies. Information access and automated processes are integral to a profitable business.
A complaint we hear from IT executives is “we are stuck with the legacy systems we have because we invested so heavily into them”, yet they find themselves in a situation where the systems are incapable of adapting to the changing needs of their company.
- Some say, “if only I had a way to leverage the data that resides in my legacy applications for a more strategic purpose.”
- Others say, “If only I had a clear picture of the value I could derive from replacing my legacy application with a solution that leverages a more contemporary platform like Microsoft.NET or Java.”
- Some others say, “I could re-build my legacy applications internally but that would require hiring and retaining staff that are qualified in new disciplines”. “Our organization is not willing to be burdened by this sort of long term commitment. I would prefer to outsource the project but I certainly don’t want to send this off shore and loose total control of the project nor be burdened by having to manage the quality issues that come with offshore development.”
