This document discusses system users and developers in chapter 4. It covers the changing structure of information systems from physical to virtual, the roles of information specialists, end-user computing, skills needed for information systems careers, managing knowledge, and the benefits and risks of virtual offices and organizations. The key topics are how information systems support organizations, trends in decentralized structures, and the importance of the human element in development and use of information systems.
Framework for Cloud Computing Adoption: A Roadmap for Smes to Cloud Migrationijccsa
Small and Medium size Enterprises (SME) are considered as a backbone of many developing and
developed economies of the world; they are the driving force to any major economy across the globe.
Through Cloud Computing firms outsource their entire information technology (IT) process while
concentrating more on their core business. It allows businesses to cut down heavy cost incurred over IT
infrastructure without losing focus on customer needs. However, Cloud industry to an extent has struggled
to grow among SMEs due to the reluctance and concerns expressed by them. Throughout the course of this
study several interviews were conducted and the literature was reviewed to understand how cloud
providers offer services and what challenges SMEs are facing. The study identified issues like cloud
knowledge, interoperability, security and contractual concerns to be hindering SMEs adoption of cloud
services. From the interviews common practices followed by cloud vendors and what concerns SMEs have
were identified as a basis for a cloud framework which will bridge gaps between cloud vendors and SMEs.
A stepwise framework for cloud adoption is formulated which identifies and provides recommendation to
four most predominant challenges which are hurting cloud industry and taking SMEs away from cloud
computing, as well as guide SMEs aiding in successful cloud adoption. Moreover, this framework
streamlines the cloud adoption process for SMEs by removing ambiguity in regards to fundamentals
associated with their organisation and cloud adoption process
A comparison of the top four enterprise architecture methodologiesHildegard Lijdsman
This document provides an overview and comparison of four major enterprise architecture methodologies: the Zachman Framework, TOGAF, FEA, and Gartner. It uses a fictional company facing IT challenges as an example to examine how each methodology could help address issues like increasing costs and lack of business alignment. While each methodology has strengths, none are complete on their own. The document suggests blending elements of the different approaches to create a customized methodology tailored to an organization's specific needs and priorities. Effective change ultimately requires commitment from top leadership.
Cloud procurement solutions offer several key differences compared to traditional on-premise systems. These include that cloud solutions are already built, so organizations adopt existing solutions rather than building from scratch. Implementation teams are smaller and more nimble. Updates and new features are released more frequently, potentially several times per year. IT support needs change dramatically, with organizations no longer responsible for maintenance and upgrades. However, solid project management is still required, as many aspects like testing and integration do not change. Making the shift to cloud procurement requires adapting approaches and mindsets.

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.
RealOps IOA Editorial for BM Mag - FINALJohn Scott
The document discusses how IT service management (ITSM) and integrated operations automation (IOA) can help align IT with business needs by linking people, processes, and technology. ITSM frameworks like ITIL provide models for mapping IT services and processes to prioritize resources according to business priorities. IOA aims to introduce automation to replace manual IT tasks, freeing up staff for higher-level work. By integrating operational elements across technology, processes, and organizational silos, IOA can help achieve comprehensive automation and more efficient, scalable IT service delivery aligned with business goals.
This document discusses how digital technologies like cloud, analytics, mobile, social, and IoT can help enterprises build business resiliency. It argues that these technologies allow businesses to innovate their disaster recovery plans by leveraging cloud solutions to back up data and systems. For example, a cloud-based backup solution could protect multiple office locations by connecting branch offices to a central data center. This provides scalability and reduces costs compared to traditional disaster recovery methods. Overall, the document promotes adopting a digital enterprise strategy using these new technologies to overcome challenges in keeping infrastructure updated and creating effective business continuity plans.
This document discusses chapter 4 from the 10th edition of the textbook "Management Information Systems" by Raymond McLeod and George Schell. The chapter covers system users and developers, including end-user computing, the roles of information specialists, and the benefits and risks of the virtual office and virtual organization models. It also outlines the types of knowledge and skills needed for information systems careers.
The management of IT carve-out projects is very challenging due to the strict time frame, the severe contractual penalties, the huge number of stakeholders and the various as well as unique IT tasks that have to be conducted. Up to now, there is no instrument for evaluating the readiness of the IT for a carve-out and also not for managing such a project. In order to address this, we develop a maturity model based on expert interviews and a literature review on success factors of IT carve-outs. The elements as well as the usage of the IT carve-out maturity model are explained. The maturity model has been evaluated
theoretically based on design principles and during a case study in the financial services industry. The developed maturity model can be used by practitioners for the management of IT carve-outs and also by researchers to examine IT carve-outs in empirical research.
This document discusses computing and communications resources and covers topics such as computer hardware components, personal computing devices, data storage, input/output devices, software, computer networking, and the internet. The learning objectives are to understand the various computer components, data storage media, software types, computer networking strategies, and the differences between intranets, extranets, and the internet.
This document outlines key concepts from Chapter 2 of the textbook "Management Information Systems, 10th edition" by Raymond McLeod and George Schell. It discusses using information systems to achieve competitive advantage through concepts like supply chain management, value chains, and knowledge management. It also covers challenges of developing global information systems and the importance of strategic planning for information resources.
Executive Primer on Business Continuity PlanningRickMark
The document discusses business continuity planning (BCP) and related IT considerations. It provides an example scenario of a company called ACME that suffers a disaster when its headquarters floods, destroying its on-site servers and backup tapes. This halts all operations and customer access. The summary describes how ACME could have better prepared through regular off-site backups, redundant systems, and testing emergency plans. Effective BCP and IT disaster recovery processes are important for companies to survive unforeseen disasters and interruptions.
The document discusses strategic uses of information technology by businesses. It begins by describing how the internet revolutionized business use of IT in the late 1990s. It then examines whether that revolution has ended, if an even larger revolution is coming, and what types of strategic uses companies are making of IT. Specifically, it outlines three categories of strategic IT roles: working inward to improve internal processes and structure; working outward to improve products and customer relationships; and working across to improve processes and partnerships with business partners. Several company examples are provided to illustrate these strategic IT uses.
This document discusses chapter 11 on decision support systems from the textbook "Management Information Systems, 10th Edition" by Raymond McLeod and George Schell. It covers key topics such as decision making, problem solving, mathematical modeling, the use of spreadsheets and artificial intelligence in decision support systems. The chapter describes how decision support systems have evolved over time to incorporate additional functions such as group decision support, online analytical processing and artificial intelligence.

Cloud Pricing is Broken - by Dr James Mitchell, curated by The Economist Inte...James Mitchell
Commodity trading of cloud services would benefit both buyers and sellers, but the industry’s current pricing models are standing in the way, writes Dr James Mitchell, CEO of Strategic Blue, a financial cloud broker.
A manual for the separation of IT during corporate re-organizations. The document contains a good foundation to IT M&A and PMI (post mergers integration). A good read for young consultants.
The document provides an overview of Microsoft SharePoint including its key features and components. It discusses SharePoint's capabilities for document management, collaboration, enhanced intranets, search functionality, and portal creation. An overview of common SharePoint terminology is also provided along with descriptions of Office SharePoint Server 2007 architecture and components such as Windows SharePoint Services, SharePoint Portal Server, and SharePoint Designer.
IBM Omnifind Enterprise Portal Seach To Improve ProductivityFrancis Ricalde
The document discusses IBM's OmniFind Enterprise Edition product which improves productivity by allowing knowledge workers to more easily find the right information at the right time in the proper context. It provides enterprise-wide search capabilities that go beyond basic keyword search and integrates with WebSphere Portal. Key features include searching both inside and outside portal repositories, advanced search features, multiple language support, and high availability.
Enterprise Search White Paper: Increase Your Competitiveness - Make a Knowled...Findwise
With data volumes growing by 200 percent a year, knowledge workers are spending around 30 percent of their time trying to extract useful information. Furthermore a recent U.S. study asserted that knowledge workers spend more than twice as much time re-creating already created content as they spend creating new content. In addition to this time spent on maintaining structures for storing incoming unstructured information (e.g. mail, documents etc) is increasing rapidly.
Enabling search solutions makes information easy to find, however the key is to transform this information into knowledge. This is normally not done by simple intranet search functionality, however the intranet portal can act as a portal to a knowledge management system based on advanced search functionality withadded collaborative functions. This transforms your organization into a “knowledge finding organization”, creating an even more competitive organization.
Knowledge Management systems based on an Enterprise Search Platform (ESP) can, if implemented properly, significantly improve the efficiency of an organization. IDC Research suggests in their latest report (April 2006) “Hidden cost of information Work” that the cost for wasted time on the part of professional searching, but not finding relevant information, amounts to $5.3 million annually for an enterprise with 1000 knowledge workers.
The document provides an overview of strategic management concepts that will be covered in the course, including defining strategic management, differentiating it from operational management, discussing various strategic approaches and frameworks, and outlining the strategic management process. It introduces key topics like the Ansoff matrix, different levels of strategy, and contributions from thought leaders. The objectives are to help participants understand strategic thinking, analyze the business environment, and discuss contemporary strategy development approaches.
This document discusses portals, their benefits, reasons for implementing one, design patterns, and whether Oracle WebCenter Portal meets key requirements. It defines a portal as a framework for integrating information, people, and processes through a consistent user interface. Benefits include single sign-on, personalized and context-focused displays. Reasons for a portal include refreshing the user experience, reducing costs, and enabling self-service. Design patterns address portlet interactions and relationships. Oracle WebCenter Portal provides the necessary architecture and capabilities.
A portal is a website that works as a single source for all info on a particular domain. An effective Web portal deals with the user a broad array of information, organized in a way that is most convenient for the user to use. When planned, executed and maintained correctly a web portal becomes the entry point of a web user introducing him into several information, resources and other sites in the internet.

Note the new tagline, “Experts in delivering business-driven technology solutions”, which is consistent with the tagline in our website. SPEAKER NOTES: (Intro customized for specific client situation) We are in the IT services space (i.e. versus management consulting or professional services) and we are specifically identified as a “Consultants and SI” segment. A more appropriate “customer facing” description of our positioning is as a “Consulting and Solution Implementation” services provider which brings focus to “solutions” (i.e. the holy grail for our clients).
This is essentially our Mission Statement for customer-facing communications. It speaks first to our positioning as an IT consulting firm and second to our mission to “help clients implement business-driven IT solutions” that deliver business value in the form of integrated business processes, etc.
… the fast facts about Perficient that help position us as a rapidly growing, successful IT services firm with sufficient scale to handle large projects while being more flexible and responsive, based on our size relative to the large players. This slide is to provide “the facts” which are typically required in many “first meetings” and to help position our competitive differentiation, which is addressed directly in the next slide.
IBM Confidential Organizations need information to optimize their businesses, but continue to struggle with how leverage all of the information they have Information remains locked in various silos across the organization The volume of information and the variety of different information types an organization has to deal with growing exponentially The velocity of business in today’s market is driving more real-time requirements for accessing and using information Some recent surveys point out just how bad this problem has become Almost 50% of users claimed they don’t have confidence in their information (AIIM 2007 Survey) – hidden fact is that this number is higher than it was in the 2006 survey, indicating that this problem is getting worse, not better Even more staggering is the fact that almost 60% of managers claim they miss Information they should have used when making a business decision, and… Over 40% of managers claim they use the wrong information at least once a week (Accenture survey)
IBM Confidential We believe that there are 3 key things that organizations require to unlock the business value of information for competitive advantage…and this is what Information On Demand is focused on. Organizations need the ability to manage data and content over its lifecycle, as part of the individual processes and applications across the enterprise…this requires data and content management capabilities to support your different processes and applications. Organizations then need to establish accurate, trusted information across these different processes and applications for a single view of the truth…a single view of customers, of products, of revenue, etc…and they need a “flexible” architecture that can leverage all of their existing investments…accurate, trusted information is established through information integration, data warehousing and master data management. These first two components have really been our IOD story up until recently…with the acquisition of Cognos, we are now providing our customers with the ability to leverage that trusted information to better understand how their business is performing, and begin optimizing performance across the enterprise…and this is accomplished through business intelligence and performance management These are the three main components required by organizations to unlock the business value of their information, but the ultimate object our clients have is to drive better business outcomes. And that’s what we are focused on with all of these components…helping our clients improve customer and product profitability, provide increased financial risk insight for better business decisions, optimize the workforce and control labor costs, enable more dynamic supply chain management, and support multi-channel, event driven marketing initiatives. And IBM provides the most complete, end-to-end capabilities for Information On Demand, with every component focused on helping customers optimize their business.

IBM Confidential And we want to help organizations establish an information agenda to support these initiatives and get more value out of their information related investments. An effective Information Agenda provides a guiding mechanism for an organization to gain a future perspective to information requirements across heterogeneous informational systems (IBM and non-IBM). It establishes the enterprise information infrastructure that supports tactical decisions and transforms organization towards optimized business performance. An information agenda establishes corporate information vision tied to business initiatives and strategies, helps identify technology needed to establish a common framework, delivers a roadmap for implementing short and long term projects within context of strategy, and helps organizations develop and implement cross line of business policies and procedures for managing and protecting information… All efforts in conjunction with each other result in a systematic methodology to ensure the strategic use of information resulting in business optimization. What is it? An Information Agenda is the strategic vision and roadmap for organizations to: Identify and prioritize projects that deliver a return Identify what data and content is important to the organization Identify how and when it should be made available Determine what capabilities are required to support and access it and Determine what management processes and governance practices are required to sustain the plan. Align the use of information to match the organizations business strategy Create and deploy an information infrastructure that meets immediate needs and future needs
