"Results-driven Approach to SOA Adoption: A Roadmap for IT Managers"
This session will provide IT executives and senior managers a practical roadmap for driving SOA adoption to deliver measurable value to your business line customers. In the current economic climate, achieving measurable business impact is critical for any business initiative, including IT projects. Using Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) is a fact of life to assess the results for most areas of business, such as sales, call centers, logistics, and of course finance. However, this approach doesn’t come naturally in the area of IT planning. Nor are performance metrics and bottom-line thinking an intrinsic part of daily life for IT managers, architects, development teams, and operations teams. Solving this challenge will enable you to reverse the trend of shrinking budgets for your strategic IT initiatives, and instead position IT as a business enabler.
This session will show you how you can align business-oriented metrics with IT project metrics to drive successful SOA adoption, shorten time-to-market for critical IT projects, and increase business alignment. This roadmap is based on real-world case studies from companies who have used a SOA strategy to deliver higher-impact IT projects with direct impact on the bottom line. You will learn how you can achieve every CIO’s dream of increasing IT-business alignment by incorporating a results-driven, metrics-driven approach throughout your SOA projects. You will walk away from this session with a practical, easy to use framework plus examples from customers who have already been successful in applying our metrics-driven approach.
