Abstract
- The article discusses the need for corporate information technology (IT) departments to focus less on technology and more on the informational and data requirements of end users. Technology is only a means to an end, which should be serving the firm's business needs. The author describes how IT's focus evolved from being "customer-centric" to "technology-centric," and discusses concerns raised by a 2007 roundtable with twelve chief information officers from organizations representing manufacturing, services, and government.
