The consumerization of IT combined with recent technology advances, such as mobile and cloud, has
created a perfect storm for surging IT demands. As a result, organizations are undertaking a variety of IT
initiatives to support new products/services, “consumer-like” IT experiences, cost-effective
infrastructures and new business processes.
Even beyond IT, in areas such as marketing, customer service and sales, companies are seeking to create
better economies of scale and use resources more effectively when executing projects. And, the pressure
abounds in all directions to get everything to market fast.
However, despite the increasing demand for new products and services, budgets remain flat. As a result,
companies have been forced to find smarter, more cost-effective ways to address market demands
while balancing costs and driving more business value.
By leveraging PPM technology solutions, organizations can do just that. These systems enable
companies to gain visibility into projects, share information, improve decision making and complete
tasks on time and on budget. And PPM solutions delivered through cost-effective means, such as
Software as a Service (SaaS), can significantly reduce implementation and maintenance costs while
speeding time to value. But realizing the benefits of PPM technology solutions depends not only on
using the right system, but also the right approach.
