Decoding Business/IT Unity: Patterns, Anti-Patterns, and
Stories from the Front
Aleks Buterman,
Principal and Technology
Investment Management
Advisor at SenseAgility
Group, spoke on Decoding
Business and IT Unity,
at the March 2010
Business Ecology
Initiative Symposium in
Jacksonville FL.
Utilizing a case
study approach, Buterman
spoke of classic and
newly identified failure
patterns associated with
enterprise technology
investment.
Interestingly,
Buterman's case studies
extend beyond initial
delivery, to focus on
real-world challenges of
product, program and
business sustainment
brought on by
unanticipated customer
and business unit
demand, organizational
change and insufficient
architectural
investment.
For preventive and
corrective measures,
Buterman advocates a
capability portfolio
approach to bring
complexity to a
manageable level. The
capability portfolio
approach considers four
dimensions: business,
technology, organization
and risk. Buterman
emphasized the need to
apply business
discipline, particularly
risk assessment and
management, throughout
business-technology
lifecycles.
Amplifying Buterman's
findings was a special
video conference guest
appearance from a vice
president at a large
Fortune 500 Financial
Services firm.
