Technology strategies of the past focused on cool, innovative technology
Technology strategy of the here and now, as well as the future, is and will be focused on business, customer, and operational impact.
AI, cybersecurity, IT Operations, and the Software Development lifecycle are where we at SBase see this change most noticeably.
Today, a business executive or Board asks of their Chief Data Officer( CDO),“ We have invested millions and millions of dollars on all these Data Science projects. Where do we have models in production today? And what impact to the business( operational efficiency, revenue growth, or cost savings) have those models had to date?” Many of those CDOs cannot point to an ROI.
A Cybersecurity executive goes to the C-suite and Board and asks for more money to buy some new technology or start a new project. They are asked for the business justification for the expenditure. If they do not have one, it will not get funded.
IT Operations is notorious for having a lot of tooling that is the best of breed and fits a particular niche in the technology stack. None of those systems talk to one another, and a Sev1 issue in production is a nightmare to deal with, with no context unified in a single system from all those best of breed solutions. The business is not making money during that Sev1 issue, and that is what the business and Board cares about.
Developers are known for creating cool technology. Is that feature actually something the customer wants? Did the market demand what you created or are you developing in a vacuum.?
The landscape has changed. SBase Technologies knows that. This is why all our technology solutions are with the business top of mind always.
