David Brotman is Managing Director of Decision Point Analysts, a financial advisory consulting firm states that “With the use of a portfolio management approach to the setting of the annual investment budget, we help companies deal with the classic trade-offs: How much should be spent on IT; what to spend it on; how to acknowledge and yet still choose among the needs of different stakeholders in the process. We help the CIO’s to determine and communicate the appropriate indicators of business value for their software and IT portfolios.”
IT executives need to be strategic executive among peers at the table leading profit and loss leaders to make more informed investment decisions for software and business applications …
…Providers of software are the closest technology products to impacting directly, the top and various cost lines in the financial statements. They can become strategic partners when they help their customers articulate the business value that accrues to the buyer’s organization. And, in complex environments value propositions are often best evaluated among choices in a portfolio analysis process.
In addition to serving clients, Tom Oser is an Adjunct Faculty member in the Executive Masters in Technology Management program co-sponsored by the Wharton School and the School of Engineering at The University of Pennsylvania. He’ll soon host and moderate the upcoming second evening event in New York City for “The Evolving CIO Series” where CIO’s, IT executives, head hunters, and media pundits come to hash out the industry pressures on IT Executives in business.
