1 Business Continuity in an Outsourced Environment: Enabling business outcomes and expanding sourcing options Marnix Gillis IBM Distinguished Engineer 32 nd Regional Conference 2013 International Business Machines Corporation 1 Abstract With the growing success of cloud, most of the consultant companies agree that the job of a CIO is evolving from (business) manager of an IT department to a function of a "broker of services", supporting new (and existing) business systems. The choice and mix of delivery models has an impact on the CIO's retained organization, but also declares the switch that (some) providers make to "enabling business outcomes" rather than delivering infrastructure services. This presentation will describe both trends in the sourcing industry International Business Machines Corporation 2 1

2 Trends: Cloud, Mobile, Analytics, and Social are fueling the hyper-growth of business as-a-service economies Embracing New Technologies, Adopting New Business Models Bring Your Own IT Large existing IT infrastructures with a globalized workforce, 3 rd party services, and a growing customer base Exploding and Interconnected Digital Universe 30 billion RFID tags (products, passports, buildings, animals) 1 billion workers will be remote or mobile Social Business Mobility 1 trillion connected objects (cars, appliances, cameras) 1B Mobile Internet users 30% growth of 3G devices Cloud / Virtualization 33% of all new business software spending will be Software as a Service 2013 International Business Machines Corporation 3 These trends increase pressure on CIOs and their teams to deliver transformative business value Increased expectations 68% Of senior management rank technology as critical to business success Increased risk 40% Of Fortune 500 and popular websites contain a vulnerability Budgetary constraints 71% Of the average IT budget is dedicated to ongoing operations. Desired Outcomes: Create new business models Manage business innovation from strategy to execution Deliver robust business analytics Align applications with business processes and platforms Improve application flexibility Align technology with business strategy Improve infrastructure efficiencies Create a more flexible infrastructure with delivery options, like cloud computing 2013 International Business Machines Corporation 5 2

Two examples: integrated service management processes Cloud or external service standardized interfaces for integrated business processes Non standard interface In House 2013 International Business Machines Corporation 15 A structured approach is required to assess client requirements and make thoughtful decisions on a sourcing service delivery strategy Bringing together diverse (non-functional) requirements hybrid availability benefits Decisions performance shared Multi-tenant Deployment models accountability migration location economics Shared flexibility ownership outcomes Fixed vs. Variable costs planning security management governance Business Design..into a methodology using tools and best practices Outcomes Economics Accountability Strategic Decisions Service Levels Considerations Availability Security Performance Deployment Flexibility Shared Location Source: IBV Analysis 2013 International Business Machines Corporation 16 6

7 CIOs have to create and deliver an integrated, interconnected, dynamic multi-sourcing strategy 1 Consider your business and IT needs, and the processes and services required to support them 2 Use a disciplined approach to make the right decisions using best-practice tools and methodologies 3 Deliver an integrated multisourcing strategy spanning your enterprise Business Service Management Infrastructure Application Process Service Delivery Considerations Business Design Service Levels Deployment Choices Outcomes Accountability Economics Performance Security Resilience Sourcing Traditional IT Managed Services Cloud Services Integrated Service Delivery Platform Flexibility Shared Location 2013 International Business Machines Corporation 17 Does TOGAF help?

What do SLAs look like and are they related to business outcome? ( BLA s?) What is the governance model and who needs to participate? Should partner relationships be horizontal or vertical? How do you move from a vendor to a strategic relationship? What are the essential control points? 2013 International Business Machines Corporation 21 8
