Who should attend: CIOs and Application Development & Delivery professionals

Description:

CIOs are expected to provide portfolios of business technology (BT) services, which sustain the competitive advantage of their firms. Forrester recommends CIOs integrate the portfolio development into a broader marketing framework to optimally position and communicate its BT services and boost their value. The framework involves three key steps: 1) Architect portfolios of services that provide exactly what business needs; 2) continuously assess the portfolio capabilities using a market-activated approach; and 3) employ scenario planning to synchronize the portfolio road maps.

Agenda

• Common issues that split business expectations from what IT delivers
• Architecting the BT portfolio of services
• Assessing the portfolio using a market-activated approach
• Using scenario planning to synchronize service road maps
• Approaching the portfolio development from a marketing perspective
