Drive IT's Business Value with Integrated IT Service Management
Business and IT integration is much talked about, but not well defined, especially how to truly achieve and measure it.
In this online conference, we will be showing that Business and IT integration is not just about creating a good rapport with business, but more about delivering ongoing business contributions and leveraging resources well. And of course, these contributions need to be made transparent and tangible for the business so IT receives the recognition it deserves.

Optimize Business and IT: IT Resource Planning for Higher IT Productivity
IT organizations are under tremendous pressure to provide the enabling technologies to drive business strategies. Often, the success of IT is dependent more on herculean effort than strong process discipline and effective use of technology. However, in today's globally connected world, IT organizations must change their approach if they want to continue to be a provider of value to their organization. This presentation will talk about the issues and challenges that today's IT shops face, and how emerging best practices and new technologies can help turn IT into a business enabler.

Doing the Right Things in order to Do Things Right
Both IT and the business love measuring things. KPIs, SLOs, metrics, cost, price, consumption - everything has a value attached to it and a traffic light to indicate whether the targets were met. As the old saying goes "if you can't measure it, you can't manage it" so it must follow that what you can measure you can manage. So why aren't the business always happy, even when the targets are met? In this presentation we will discuss how the service portfolio drives business integration so that the performance and cost measurements are indicators of business value, rather than just IT effort.
