The business world is adopting an on-demand model, and for a very good reason: the business environment is changing faster and becoming more unpredictable. That leaves us with a choice to incorporate the change in our core business or spend money, time and effort in exploring the past trends.
How many times has it happened in the past? We made our cost benefit analysis, the savings looked terrific, the solution got implemented, and life was happy go lucky. Then the reorganization happened, the planning went out of window, and now we’re saddled into an IT infrastructure system that doesn’t fit the new situation we are in now. That’s business today. Even the list of things that are changing is changing. What we need is a solution that’s designed for change. What we need is an on-demand business model. We need to be able to change with a change in the IT infrastructure system.
And if, the IT infrastructure is an important part of your business, one can not ignore the on-demand model of design for change. Today, whatever challenge the IT face: reorganization, spin-off, T&M, outsourcing or off-shoring, we need to build flexibility into our IT infrastructure.
With the flexibility gained with pay-as-you go, we can reduce overhead significantly. Our infrastructure will simply do what we need it to do. With more options open to business, we will be able to focus more on business strategy than on tactics. One can eliminate wasted time, effort and headaches, to focus on work that builds business value.
