All organizations have business functions that constitute the heart of the company's operations. How well an organization performs those business functions will add to the company's bottom line. Those business functions must always continue to advance and improve year after year or they will loose any edge they may have over the competition. Corporate managers from private and public sectors must position technology to support and continually improve that business functions in-order to make technology an iatrical part of the value-ad to the overall profits of the company's strategic goals. Rapid business changes have made access to timely and accurate information critical in the success in the market place. At times technology itself can be used to become the competitive edge over the competition or to provide services. IT should position themselves to become a core ingredient to the business units as essential to their overall success.
