The focal point for technology to support digital business is to ensure the effective management and operation of an organization. Managing an organization’s portfolio of projects, resources and assets to deliver expected outcomes is no easy task. The interlinking of business and technology presents opportunities for organizations to innovate and deliver the efficiency and expected improvements that are part of the overall strategy. The goal is not just transformation, but establishing the resilience and effectiveness required for success.
