For the last 20 years, IT teams have focused on transactional efficiency and cost optimization. While those are still critical to running a smooth operation, business teams are asking IT to focus on initiatives that accelerate innovation and growth. One way to do that is to break away from a vendor-dictated applications roadmap towards an IT investment plan that is business-driven.

Authored by former Gartner analyst, Pat Phelan, this white paper will provide some of the telltale signs that your organization could be constrained by technology-dictated roadmaps. Pat also highlights how to link your Business-Driven Roadmap with distinct destinations that can result in game-changing results for your company. And she will explain how to take advantage of vendor updates, without letting the vendor dictate the route, priority or timing of your roadmap.00
