Planning Technology Transitions

Abstract

The challenge inherent in making the transition to advanced technologies lies in ensuring coexistence between newer open, scalable architectures and legacy systems, applications, development tools, and staff. A transition methodology that focuses not only on technology but also takes a participative approach to planning and ensures that business processes are efficient increases an organization's chances of meeting this challenge and benefiting from a more strategic use of IT.
