IT strategic impact grid Sample Clauses

IT strategic impact grid. There is no one-size-fits-all model for effective IT governance. The perfect IT management strategy depends on the company’s history, the industry, competitive position, … A framework that is often cited, is the IT strategic impact grid of Xxxxx and XxXxxxxx (2005). This model shows the firm’s position towards IT strategy. In order to implement effective IT governance, one must know in advance how involved the company is with IT. To start with, there are two crucial IT criteria based on the IT usage mode. The first one is the need for new information technology, which is divided into defensive IT and offensive IT. In defensive IT, the company attaches much importance to low cost, safe and easily operating technology. Companies with a defensive strategy do not want to be ahead of the competition with emerging technology. Their main concern is to ensure that the technology systems run smoothly at all times. However, offensive IT focusses mainly on the competitive advantage that new technologies entail. These projects are often risky and ambitious. The second criterion is the need for reliable information technology. Out of these two criteria, four modes result. Firms in the support mode have a low need for reliable and strategic technology. The main focus of technology is to support employees’ activities. The company will not suffer great losses in case that the system goes down. Turnaround mode companies are usually in the middle of a strategic transformation and therefore need new technology. These companies often implement a major IT project which promises significant service improvements, cost reductions and a competitive advantage. Turnaround mode is not long-term position. Companies who do not need such radical technologies, but rather require highly reliable systems, are situated in the factory mode. Companies such as manufacturing plants suffer a great loss if systems fail even for a short period. Finally, for companies in the strategic mode the goal is total innovation.
