Don�t Lose Your Mind or Your Job: What Executives Should Know About CMDB Proj...digitallibrary
EMA research has shown that more than 75% of IT projects fail, either by providing too little functionality or overrunning cost and time estimates. Major IT initiatives, including CMDB projects, are risky and oftentimes put IT leaders' reputations (and jobs) on the line. While moving forward is scary, you can't sit still and miss out on the benefits to the business. Discover the 10 questions every IT leader should ask when deciding if CMDB is right for their company, and learn about real-life examples of what to do (and what to avoid) when undertaking a CMDB initiative.
3gamma insights - Idea in brief - IT outsourcing in an ever-changing environment3gamma
The document discusses challenges with IT outsourcing in a changing environment. It argues that cost can no longer be the sole driver and that outsourcing agreements need to focus on outcomes rather than activities. Engaging the business is key to developing an effective outsourcing strategy aligned with business requirements. Flexibility is important, which requires collaboration between IT and vendors through strong relationships. Risk management should also be incorporated into the outsourcing strategy over the entire lifecycle.

IT Service Management (ITSM) Model for Business & IT AlignementRick Lemieux
Today’s multi-faceted business world demands that Information Technology provide its services in the context of a fully integrated corporate strategic model. This transformation becomes possible when IT evolves from its technological heritage into a Business Technical Organization, or an “internal service provider.” This paper describes how the itSM Solutions reference model integrates five widely used service management domains to create a powerful model to guide IT in its journey into the business leadership circle.
Outsourcing IT services to an experienced partner allows them to handle routine tasks so your business can concentrate on its main objectives. A managed IT support solution from this company aims to make businesses more adaptable and creative by decreasing expenses and risks while boosting productivity.

This document discusses using a master data management approach to develop a metadata repository in healthcare. It defines metadata and master data, and explains how master data management can be used to harmonize and manage core business data consistently across an organization. Developing a metadata repository involves defining requirements, contents, governance processes and change management procedures. The repository would store both master data and corresponding metadata in a single location for consistent management. This approach prioritizes the most important clinical and administrative data and allows an organization to systematically develop a comprehensive metadata repository over multiple years.

This document provides information on data governance and discusses several challenges and approaches to data governance. It discusses that 80% of enterprise data is unstructured and spread across many sources like web data, enterprise applications, emails, and social media. Governing such diverse data assets is a complex long-term journey. It also discusses why data governance is needed, challenges of data governance, and different routes and frameworks to conduct data governance assessments and develop solutions. These include using cases studies, lean six sigma methodology, enterprise data architecture approaches, and linking data governance with machine learning. The document concludes by emphasizing structure of data, experimenting with different assessment and solutioning methods, and leveraging machine learning as a new capability.

This document discusses how adopting a service-oriented architecture (SOA) approach can help organizations respond to economic pressures. While SOA is often touted for cost and efficiency benefits, these are not always realized. To be effective during downturns, SOA requires a balanced approach that streamlines application development and maintenance, enhances business visibility and responsiveness, and drives process automation and optimization, rather than just focusing on cost cutting. The document provides advice on taking a strategic yet tactical approach to SOA adoption by beginning with real project requirements, reviewing existing initiatives, managing expectations, and ensuring business impact is considered.
It's not one or the other, or, one vs the other... MDM and DG are better together. And for good reasons.

Big data can transform businesses by enabling data-driven decision making, which research shows increases productivity and profits by 5-6%. To truly understand customers, a multi-faceted approach is needed, including training, leadership, incentives, and metrics. This will be difficult but produce a shift in mindsets and more flexible decision making. Managers must consider profit-based growth programs and have analytics skills to understand customers through a multi-faceted lens, requiring knowledge of big data and analysis. Managers also need transparent methods for using models and algorithms daily with vast data transfers and analysis for continuous skill-building and improvement.

The document discusses how to deliver business value through analytics by taking a decision-centric approach. It recommends putting business decisions first, changing how business understanding is defined to incorporate more decision knowledge, and considering analytics as part of a set of decision-making technologies rather than a standalone solution. By focusing on improving specific decisions, making analytics actionable in operations, and measuring success by the degree of business change, organizations can overcome common barriers to realizing value from analytics investments.
The document discusses how business and IT architectures have evolved over time from siloed structures to more horizontal and collaborative models. It notes that while business has changed, technology investment has not kept pace. The document introduces the IT Enterprise Architecture model which includes the business, information, and technology architectures. It provides examples of key components of a technology architecture like applications, collaboration technologies, data management, and security.
The document provides information on an IT professional with over 20 years of experience helping organizations translate business objectives into digital strategies and transform their IT departments. He has a Master's degree in IT Management and certifications in ITIL, MOF, CMM, Prince2, and IPMA. Some of his accomplishments include establishing a new advisory department at KPN Consulting, developing an innovative healthcare framework, and creating a new IT service management portfolio.
The document discusses four main challenges: designing a solution with effective stakeholders; creating an architecture that meets requirements; evaluating a vendor's solution and partnership abilities; and ensuring proper tax reporting support for a diverse customer base.
Managing Storage - Cost, Governance, Risk and the EnvironmentJon Collins
The document discusses information management challenges facing businesses and the role of archiving and storage solutions. It notes that businesses want to reduce costs, increase agility and manage risk while being good corporate citizens. Archiving solutions need to align with business needs on value, resilience, compliance and usability. Short term initiatives are focusing on infrastructure modernization and storage/information lifecycle management. Emerging technologies are bringing new opportunities and challenges around intelligent access to distributed information over time.
One of the prime causes of complex business processes is the inclusion of decision-making in process designs. Organizations that identify the decisions in their processes and manage them as peers – not part of the process but supporting it – find they can simplify process designs, increase agility and bring business users and IT into better alignment.
This webinar will build on real case studies to show you how keeping decisioning and process entangled creates complexity, how to find decisions in your complex processes and how Decision Management delivers simpler, more manageable processes.
This document discusses outsourcing and provides an overview of key considerations for outsourcing decisions. It defines outsourcing as transferring work to outside suppliers to reduce costs. Common motivations for outsourcing include cost savings, accessing new skills and technologies, and focusing internally on core functions. However, risks include hidden costs, loss of control, and quality problems with outsourced work. When deciding whether to outsource, organizations should evaluate strategic, cost, functional, and environmental factors to help ensure outsourcing provides benefits without introducing undue risks.

Cyber fraud and Security - What risks does family office's face intoday's wo...Kannan Subbiah
Presented at the Private Wealth Management Summit 2017 held at Mumbai, India.
Security has to be considered as the foundation on which one can build a business. Gone are the days when we can build a perimeter, sit back and feel secure. In today’s digital environment we partner with others, we outsource, we have alliances, we let our customers into our systems and as we extend our networks.
In the digital economy, effective cyber security can mean the difference between a business’s success and its failure.
This document discusses IT strategies in the corporate sector. It outlines the need for IT strategies to provide competitive advantages like improved operational efficiency and faster response to changes. An effective IT strategy should be aligned with the overall business strategy and link to other functional strategies. The document also identifies some symptoms of an ineffective IT strategy. It then describes formulating an IT strategy by analyzing the current state, envisioning the future state, identifying gaps, and developing a plan to close the gaps. The strategy setting process involves four phases and considers key inputs from the business, applications, governance, organization, and technology. Finally, the document discusses managing the IT strategy once it is developed.

Policy makers need an infrastructure that seamlessly integrates with regulation-specific sources and services. This infrastructure should be designed for people and built for change.
Instruction manuals, users guides, and other types of documentation have always been the way manufacturers distributed the how-to information about their products to customers, as well as sales and support staff and other employees. This kind of catch-all, one-size document forces every user to sift through irrelevant information, applying their own context to find solutions to their problems. Even when they are successful, users remember the experience as painful and tedious. There must be a better way. In 2008 Kees van Mansom and Thei Geurts developed the concept of Documentation 3.0. Using semantic technology, we can create the smart documentation that guides each customer through the actions, decisions, and choices they can take to maximize their user experience.
The document discusses improving an organization's governance capability by better connecting strategy, execution, and results. It proposes using a standard model called the Business Motivation Model to integrate ambition, approach, action, and achievement. This would link strategic objectives to tactical actions and allow monitoring results to ensure goals are achieved. Visual dashboards and role-based views are suggested to provide insight across levels and make the process actionable for stakeholders. Continuous improvement is emphasized through revising plans based on performance and adapting actions.
Conversations and decisions in the sense making spectrumThei Geurts
Conversations and decisions are omnipresent in all our personal and business activities. The challenge for software services solution engineers is to create an environment for conversations that allows participants/actors to take right and smart decisions. How we make sense of signals is determined by a variety of context aspects. The presentation offers a condensed overview of the sense making spectrum. The reader is challenged to create a story that illustrates how she/he has perceived and interpreted the context elements of this spectrum.

A presentation about content integration based on an enterprise interoperability layer. This is a mediation layer between:the user and his content processes, within the settings of a dynamic organizational and market environment andthe factual heterogeneityin systems, structure, syntax and semantics in the content environment.
The presentation was created in 2004 for a company called Be Value..
This presentation contains an outline for the creation of a new type of legal information service: a Themisplaza Marketplace. A Marketplace for legal content, added value apps and personalized legal services.
It is based on the premise that actors in the legal information field and developers are prepared to collaborate in an endeavor that is beneficial for them and their clients.
Ten years ago, in 2006, I gave a presentation at the Online Conference in London about the topic of making knowledge usable and productive. The target group consisted of professional and corporate publishers and information managers.
In the presentation I gave an example of the Dutch Social Support Act (WMO) that would become active in 2007. Many municipalities were struggling with the challenges of the new task that were laid upon them by decentralization of authority.
This decentralization of authority and responsibility to municipalities has been extended even further in 2015. Many municipalities are struggling again with the uncertainty they face and are looking for the best way to implement the new transition of authority within a reduced budget space.
Perhaps this selection of sheets from that 2006 presentation provides some food for thought.
New technologies promise to support the policy making process in a revolutionary way.

Contextual intelligence deals with the practical application of knowledge and information to real-world situations, and can be defined as:“the capacity to exploit business moments and operational events in a way that enables to make informed decisions and take effective action in varied, changing and uncertain situations”.
The future business value will accrue to those who are able to lever contextual intelligence and build sustainable intelligent enterprises and ecosystems.

This whitepaper discusses how organizations can leverage IT sourcing to support business objectives like cost reduction and innovation. It argues that IT sourcing strategies need to be aligned with and enable the overall corporate strategy, not focus solely on isolated IT metrics. To truly realize value, IT must become an agile service integrator that can manage a flexible portfolio of internal and external capabilities to support changing business needs. Maintaining multiple sourcing partnerships rather than relying on a single vendor allows organizations to more easily acquire new capabilities and support innovation.

5 Key Benefits of Partnering with an IT Consultancy for Managed IT Services.pptxNXT IT Solutions
In today's fast-paced digital world, it is crucial for businesses to stay up-to-date with the latest technology trends and advancements. However, this can be a challenging task for many small to medium-sized businesses, as they often lack the necessary resources and expertise to manage their IT infrastructure. This is where managed IT services come in.
The document discusses the need for an organization map technology framework for big data. It notes that while small-scale data architectures exist, there is no extensive reference architecture available currently. It proposes that an organization map technology framework could help organizations map their technology to functions and processes to better understand, manage and define large volumes of data. The framework would help address issues of information asymmetry that currently exist between different parts of supply chains due to a lack of interoperable data. It provides an example of information asymmetry between small coffee farmers and roasters due to data incompatibility issues.

Ultimately, knowledge management seeks to get the right information to the right people at the right time to support business goals.
This document summarizes an article from the DITY Newsletter about justifying ITIL implementation. It discusses how IT departments often do not communicate their value to the business, resulting in decisions based primarily on cost. The article then provides examples of how ITIL can help "do more, with more, for less" by increasing efficiency and productivity rather than just cutting costs. Specific areas where ITIL can generate rapid ROI, such as in vendor management savings, bandwidth management savings, and asset management savings, are highlighted.

This document summarizes an article that discusses how to organize an IT department to successfully implement ITIL best practices. It recommends maintaining existing technical silos but creating cross-functional teams to perform ITIL processes. These virtual teams are pulled from different silos as needed, similar to how a fire department responds to emergencies. The article also emphasizes that ITIL processes describe work, not organizational structure, and that only modest changes may be needed, not a full reorganization.
Six principles of The Technology GardenJon Collins
This presentation introduces the 6 principles documented in the book The Technology Garden, which presents how to deliver enterprise IT sustainably and with maximum business value.
This document discusses the evolving landscape of enterprise compliance solutions. It notes that compliance has become a top priority for companies due to the large number of regulations they must address. While many vendors offer point solutions that focus on specific compliance areas, the document argues that companies need integrated platforms that can manage compliance across the entire enterprise in a consistent manner. It outlines key components that should be included in comprehensive compliance solutions and governance, risk, and compliance programs. Finally, it presents models for how compliance solutions can take a holistic "top-down/bottom-up" approach to better meet enterprises' evolving needs.

The concept of systems of denial was introduced in a paper by Andrew Hill and Stephen Gerras about strategic resistance to military innovation. They explored how successful organizations focus organizational energy and attention on refining their dominant theories of competition, often resulting in dysfunctional organizational responses, or systems of denial, to strategic anomalies - inconvenient information - that contradict assumptions.
The behavior patterns of these systems apply not only to successful armies, but also to e.g. IT-departments, businesses and the public sector.
It may be obvious that smarter ways of creating and executing policies will be prime targets for systems of denial. Organizations that want to innovate by implementing systems based on contextual intelligence, cognitive computing, robotic process automation (RPA) and similar smart systems for various types of knowledge workers, must be extremely alert to spot resistance symptoms.
When implementing a new business application, most organizations feel they need to choose between “build” versus “buy”. Building your own application means everything is possible, but building complex applications is a risky venture. Buying a standard application provides all the advantages of pre-configuration, but has limited flexibility. Although most organizations prefer standard applications, they end up adapting them, leading to high cost of ownership, and long change cycles.
However, a third approach has emerged, reconciling the differences between build and buy. Model-driven applications come with an out-of-the-box configuration, as would be expected of a packaged business application, yet it can be adapted without development effort.
The main characteristic of a model-based application is that the business rules and business logic are not stored within the application, but are defined, stored and maintained in a user-accessible repository. Making changes in that repository then automatically leads to changes in the application.
The paper focuses on strategy, organization and cultural aspects of managing model-driven business applications, such as Be Informed.
Synthesizing your thoughts in one imageThei Geurts
This document summarizes an image that synthesizes the author's core thoughts on accessible, assessable, and actionable knowledge. The image depicts circles representing crucial concepts in the knowledge economy, which can be discussed individually. It shows the relationship between values/norms, rules, context, decisions, actions, and outcomes. Events trigger conversations with a knowledge system to assess situations and determine actions. Additional images may provide more detail on topics like the virtuous spiral and integrated value chain. The goal is to create a shared knowledge network that supports contextual decision making and moving from insight to action.
De som der delen; wendbaarheid bij kennisgedreven interactiesThei Geurts
Organisaties opereren in steeds sneller veranderende omgevingen. Veranderingen in klantengedrag, wet- en regelgeving, technologie en marktomstandigheden maken hun omgeving steeds complexer en hebben een verlammend effect op de wendbaarheid. Organisaties moeten methoden vinden om weer wendbaar te worden en om te kunnen gaan met continue verandering.
This document discusses embracing complexity in the public, finance, and healthcare sectors. It begins by outlining the challenges of operating in today's interaction economy, where change is constant and complexity arises from social, dynamic, and emerging factors. It advocates embracing complexity by taking a "blank canvas" approach to redesign processes and systems in a model-driven way focused on dynamic case management rather than rigid processes. The document then provides examples of how this approach could empower users in each sector by streamlining services, increasing efficiency and responsiveness to changing needs.
From regulatory rigidness to meaningful resilienceThei Geurts
Regulations are growing faster than the GDP. It becomes more and more clear that ‘business as usual’ is cancelled. Old recipes don’t work anymore. The business operating system is coming to a grinding halt.
Complexity cannot be reduced; it is a natural phenomenon. Consequently, instead of fighting complexity, organizations should embrace it.
Building on the Be Informed white paper “Embrace complexity, simplify your organization”, this white paper explains how organizations should embrace three important aspects of complexity: dynamic complexity, social complexity and emerging complexity. It also outlines what may happen with organizations that fail to do so. Co-authored by JW Ebbige and F. Buytendijk.
Transforming policy skepticism into policy co makershipThei Geurts
This document discusses the increasing complexity of society and government policies and regulations. It argues that the complexity has led to problems like citizens and businesses losing track of which rules apply to them, increased administrative burden, and difficulties for politicians developing effective policies. The document proposes that using technology to convert laws and regulations into formal models could help increase transparency and allow citizens, businesses, and government agencies to better understand how policies apply in specific situations. This may help reduce skepticism about government and engage citizens and businesses in policy development. Four research tracks are proposed to further explore using policy modeling.
De kenniseconomie: fictie of werkelijkheid?Thei Geurts
Article about the knowledge economy published in Jan. 2009.
We leven in een kenniseconomie, tenmiste dat is wat alom wordt beweerd. Maar hoe komt het dan dat wij daar niets van merken? Gewoonten uit de oude economie domineren nog steeds ons handelen. Machtsposities die gebaseerd zijn op informatie – of beter gezegd op het verhullen van informatie voor eindgebruikers – worden krampachtig in stand gehouden. Zelfs als dat tot rampen zoals de recente kredietcrisis leidt.

Do you remember the time when compliance was a burden?Thei Geurts
This publication contains a short narrative. The narrative asks the question “Do you remember the time when compliance was a burden?” Instead of futilely complaining about everything that makes our life complex and troublesome, we start by describing a future situation in which this question is fully legitimate. This leads to an intriguing perspective of what is needed to become an “entrepreneur of meaning” in the GRC space. We describe an actionable framework and the underlying principles that allow you to break the vicious spiral in which you are caught.
Innovation by putting purpose into practiceThei Geurts
Policies expressed in legislation are the basis upon which public services are built. Therefore one would expect that legislation and innovative use of legislation is a key element in eGovernment initiatives. However, it almost seems that policies and their expressions in legislation live in a parallel universe of the eGovernment universe. eGovernment initiatives usually don’t make a direct connection between purpose (intended effect) and practice (operations and outcome). This affects the overall ability of governments to execute policies and the sustainability of eGovernment initiatives. We conclude that innovation by putting purpose into practice is a game changing Megatrend, a trend that has already started, as research and case studies proof. The ‘alternative’ for not engaging in this trend is unacceptable long cycle times, eroded agility, affected governance and compliance, high costs which are multiplied by doing the same in multiple places, evitable administrative burdens and red tape, decreased productivity gains of rare resources, and various forms of sub-optimization.
Putting purpose into practice by synthesizing policy making and policy execution yields considerable economic and social benefits, as initiatives in The Netherlands proof.
Abstract
The shift from transformation activities to interactions represents a broad shift in the
nature of economic activity. Enterprises looking to succeed in today’s rapid-paced new
economy must be agile, innovative and rapidly responsive to changes in their business
environment.
The number of employees doing interactive and cognitive work is increasing rapidly.
Supporting knowledge workers becomes of vital importance for the ability of enterprises
to survive in a networked knowledge economy. By regarding knowledge as a production
factor and by supporting knowledge workers, enterprises can achieve great breakthroughs
in quality, productivity and impact. The emphasis in this vision is placed on “being able
to use knowledge” instead of “having knowledge”.
Traditional capabilities and enablers are not sufficient to meet the challenges of an
enterprise environment that isshifting from push driven to pull driven. It requires inter
alia an agile infrastructure. To support the business transformation there is need for
Enterprise architecture that deals not only with technical capabilities, but also with
information and knowledge, organizational and process capabilities. Knowledge
‘architecture’ is the most forgotten discipline within enterprise architecture. Today we
model and design everything (data, processes,organizations etc.) but not knowledge. To
combat the shrinking half-life of knowledge, organizations are forced to develop new
methods of establishing and managing knowledgeprocesses, authentic sources and their
owners. This transformation should be embedded in a Business agility program. An
enterprise agility value center acts as the nucleus for the business driven action

Organizations are becoming more and more
