Navigating Difficult Times
Government Chief Information Officers (CIOs) will have to take a strategic view to navigate the economic downturn because government finances will take many years to recover. Government CIOs will have to reduce the costs of IT to run the business to free up funds for IT investment in business improvement projects. In addition, they will have to overhaul governance to increase return on investment in project spend. Finally, the scale of the challenge is such that they will have to explore “disruptive solutions” with potential to make breakthroughs in performance, whether disruptive technologies, sourcing solutions or business models.
