Determining High Value IT Initiatives @ the Open Group Conference in Philly


I will be speaking at the "Open Group Philadelphia Conference" on July 15th. My session will be entitled "Determining High Value IT Initiatives". Here's a brief summary of this session:

As IT budgets shrink, enterprise architects must increasingly focus on identifying and achieving infrastructure cost savings based on quantified ROI and risk. Typically, the complexity and heterogeneity of infrastructure environments makes optimization difficult but budget pressures necessitate performance improvements. Utilizing portfolio management and enterprise architecture techniques, this presentation describes an approach to identify solutions with "high return" cost savings.


Key takeaways:

• Understanding of the key efficiency levers that can result in reduced costs
• Approach for prioritizing and selecting highest value initiatives

Session material has been co-authored by Sandra Ambrose (Director, Infrastructure Services Practice @ SRA International)
