IT Business Alignment
Nowadays, no company can operate without IT, let alone lead its own market. This now leads to an essential question: Does your technical infrastructure support and facilitate your business strategy? The answer to this question clarifies whether your IT is merely a cost driver or a strategic tool that helps you to realize your potential and gain a competitive advantage over other market players as a source of innovation.
According to the advertising of software and IT companies, there currently is no problem that cannot be solved with the right product. In principle, this is true.
