Presentation
 Information as a Corporate Resource at the Demand Side of an Organisation
Information as a Corporate Resource at the Demand Side of an Organisation IT is all about technology, and its use (alignment). So is Enterprise Architecture. To be able to create optimal IT-solutions or even an integrated and agile IT-infrastructure organisations need to know what they want and expect from a tool like IT. This knowledge has little to do with knowledge of IT, and the wide variety of possibilities of its application. Organisations need information, and the ability to communicate it. For this reason organisations see information as their 4th corporate resource. High quality knowledge of information enables them to be/become a real smart and in-control buyer of IT.

This presentation is about the demand for information versus the supply of IT-solutions. It is about architects at demand-side versus Enterprise- and IT-architects/contractors at supply-side, about corporate governance versus IT-governance, about retained organisation versus outsourcing, about CIO versus IT-governance. In short: it is about the future of IT, its real importance.
