“…Strategy -How to accomplish strategic alignment between business and IT in the complex and dynamic environment of the real world remains a great unanswered challenge for the CIO and CEO (Ekstedt, et al, 2004;Silva, Plazaola and Ekstedt, 2006), therefore ITG should be dealt with as a business strategy (Park, Jung, Lee and Jang, 2006). Some research projects focus on how strategic alignment impacts business performance (Simonsson, Johnson and Ekstedt, 2008).…”

In the last 20 years, the use of IT by organizations has increased and ITG discipline is today a major concern. ITG has been recognized as a CIO top-10 issue for more than five years and has risen in priority between 2007 and 2009. Best practices and frameworks have been proposed in order to help organizations in ITG implementation. However, such practices and frameworks argue that the application of their practices depends on each organization context, but they don't describe the different contexts and how the practices must be applied given the different contexts. Such fact calls for the identification and formalization of the determinant factors that can influence each ITG implementation which is not present in any framework. The researchers start the paper with a literature review to leverage such differentiator factors, herein called contingency factors, in order to provide a scientific viewpoint. Then, the researchers present the evaluation section with expert's interviews in order to provide practitioner viewpoint. The researchers finalize the research with main contribution and future work section.

Companies in diverse industrial domains own very complex Enterprise Software Systems (ESS) that has become a challenge to manage and so a utility-based approach was proposed to replace Chief Information Officer (CIO) to manage complexity in ESS [23].…”

“…A key objective of EA is being able to provide a holistic understanding of all aspects of a business, connecting the business drivers and the surrounding business environment, through the business processes, organizational units, roles and responsibilities, to the underlying IT systems that the business relies on. In addition to presenting a coherent explanation of the what, why and how of a business, EA aims to support specific types of business analysis including [13,22,20,5,14]: alignment between business functions and IT systems; business change describing the current state of a business (as-is) and a desired state of a business (tobe); maintenance the de-installation and disposal, upgrading, procurement and integration of systems including the prioritization of maintenance needs; acquisition and mergers describing the alignment of businesses and the changes that occur on both when they merge.…”

Outsourcing service provision through step-wise transformation

Component-based development principles promise a flexible approach to system design and implementation. In particular service-based techniques provide a computational model whereby the physical location of components makes no difference to the overall system behaviour. Economic business models for organisations have led to outsourced services as an attractive way of reducing costs and allowing a business to focus on its key processes. In the context of business and IT alignment, this raises a problem of how to transform an organization and its enterprise systems so that it can take advantage of an external service, given that in most cases the existing processes will be embedded in many places across the organisation. This paper addresses this problem by proposing a simple component-based simulation language together with transformation rules that can be used to incrementally isolate a service as an external component.
