2 MANAGING INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY Lecture 12 PLANNING INFORMATION SYSTEM RESOURCES By : Prof. Lili Saghafi 1-2
3 PLANNING INFORMATION SYSTEMS RESOURCES IS and business managers need to work together to guide their organization in the planning and management of IS resources - Chapter 12: Steps for effective IS resource planning to best position the IS organization to enable current and future business goals - Chapter 13: Roles, responsibilities, and some best practices for leading an IS organization 12-3
4 BENEFITS OF INFORMATION RESOURCES PLANNING Creating a context for IS resource decision-making Aligning IS and business goals Balancing the tradeoffs between standardization and agility Obtaining IT capital investment approvals This requires both a periodic strategic planning process, as well as an ongoing monitoring of the appropriateness of IS plans in response to changes in the business and its environment. 12-4

7 MULTI-STEP PLANNING PROCESS ( from an Enterprise perspective) 1. Assessment of current Information resources (the status quo) 2. Establishment of an Information Vision 3. Establishment of an IT Architecture for that vision 4. Formulation of an IS Strategic Plan (roadmap) to evolve an organization s information resources from their current status toward the desired vision and IT architecture 5. Formulation of short-term Operational IS Plans based on the IS Strategic Plan 12-7
8 ALIGNING BUSINESS AND IS PLANNING IS decisions should be tightly aligned with the direction of the business IS steps ideally impact the next step in the business planning process, but in practice this is not yet typically found 12-8 Fig 12.1 The Information Resources Planning Process
9 ASSESSING CURRENT INFORMATION RESOURCES Inventorying and critically evaluating an organization s technical and human resources in terms of how well they are meeting the organization s business needs Current performance is compared to a previous plan, competitors, or a set of past objectives Comparisons are made using: - Operational data (usage of IS resources) - Survey of client satisfaction with IS performance - Benchmarks of what is being achieved at other organizations 12-9

12 Education, Inc. publishing as 11-12
13 ASSESSING CURRENT INFORMATION RESOURCES Assessing IS Performance Example: comparing actual performance to goals 12-13
14 Education, Inc. publishing as 11-14
15 ASSESSING CURRENT INFORMATION RESOURCES Measuring Attitudes of Users IT managers should also consider assessing the attitudes of users about the performance of the IS organization in relation to the current needs & future direction of the business 12-15
16 ASSESSING CURRENT INFORMATION RESOURCES IS Organizational Mission Statement Sets forth the fundamental rationale (or reason to exist) for activities of the IS organization Can vary substantially from one organization to another because some IS departments play more support roles than strategic roles The extent to which the IS organization plays a strategic role can be measured by: the degree to which the organization is dependent on IT for business operations the degree to which IT is enabling the current business strategy 12-16
17 Resource Planning Education, Inc. publishing as 11-17
18 ASSESSING CURRENT INFORMATION RESOURCES Assessing the IS Mission involves reconciling any differences between IS manager and business manager views 12-18
19 CREATING AN INFORMATION VISION Information Vision A written expression of the desired future about how information will be used and managed in the organization - Specific enough to guide policy decisions Developing a vision requires both an understanding of the future direction of the business and an understanding of the role information can best play in enabling that future business strategy - Focus is on the long term 12-19
20 . DESIGNING THE IT ARCHITECTURE Information Technology Architecture Depicts the way an organization s information resources will be deployed to deliver its vision Specifies how the Technological and Human assets of the IS organization will be deployed in the future to meet the information vision 12-20
21 DESIGNING THE IT ARCHITECTURE Four Stages of IT Architecture Maturity (Ross, 2003): 1. Application Silos companies seek to maximize individual business unit or functional needs 2. Standardized Technology companies seek to enable IT efficiencies through shared services and application rationalization, resulting in enterprise-wide IT standardization 3. Rationalized Data companies implement enterprise-wide business processes and data with tightly linked systems and processes (such as with ERP systems) 4. Modular companies seek global flexibility with loosely coupled IT-enabled business process components, which enable local differences but also preserve enterprise-wide standards 12-21

23 IT CAPABILITIES AND BUSINESS METRICS FOR IT ARCHITECTURE STAGES Figure 12.6 IT Capabilities and Business Metrics for 4 IT Architecture Stages (Based on Ross, 2003) 12-23
24 FORMULATING THE STRATEGIC IS PLAN Strategic IS Plan Long-term objectives (often three to five years) that represent measurable movement toward the Information Vision and IT Architecture and Major initiatives that must be undertaken to achieve these objectives 12-24
25 Education, Inc. publishing as 11-25
26 FORMULATING THE STRATEGIC IS PLAN 4 Steps in Strategic IS Planning Process 1. Setting objectives 2. Conducting an external analysis 3. Conducting an internal analysis 4. Establishing strategic initiatives Most planning processes involve iterations through these 4 steps 12-26
27 FORMULATING THE STRATEGIC IS PLAN 1. Setting objectives Measures are identified for each of the key result areas IS objectives may be established for: - IS department service image - IS personnel productivity - The appropriateness of technology applications - Increased effectiveness - Access to external resources 12-27
28 FORMULATING THE STRATEGIC IS PLAN 2 & 3 Conducting internal and external analyses Review external environment and internal capabilities One approach: SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) Identify leverage points or limiting factors for new strategic initiatives 12-28
29 FORMULATING THE STRATEGIC IS PLAN 4. Establishing strategic initiatives Establish high-level initiatives for IS organization These initiatives will be translated into actual projects as part of the operational IS planning 12-29
30 FORMULATING THE STRATEGIC IS PLAN Example: Strategic IS Plan for mid-sized company 12-30
31 Education, Inc. publishing as 11-31
32 OTHER TOOLS FOR IDENTIFYING STRATEGIC IT OPPORTUNITIES Critical Success Factors (CSFs) - Information needs and processes critical to the success of an entire organization or a specific business function (e.g., sales) Analysis of Competitive Forces - Using Porter s 5 Forces model to analyze potential changes in competitive advantage due to changes in balance of power between a business, its competitors, and other key stakeholders in the industry - Examples of ways a company can create competitive advantage: - Raising the stakes for competition in the market - Providing difficult-to-duplicate product/service features - Providing unique product features or customer services - Making it easier for customers to do business with the company and more difficult to switch to a competitor - More strongly linking with suppliers to obtain lower-cost, higherquality materials 12-32
33 OTHER TOOLS FOR IDENTIFYING STRATEGIC IT OPPORTUNITIES Value Chain Analysis - Based on the value chain of Porter and Millar, analysis of Primary and Support activities of the business - Examine how data can be captured, manipulated, and distributed to better support each activity and its linkages to other activities - Idea-generation and action-planning sessions with business and IT managers can be used to generate ideas for strategic applications of IT 12-33
34 Education, Inc. publishing as 11-34
35 TOOLS FOR IDENTIFYING STRATEGIC IT OPPORTUNITIES Strategic IT Application Opportunities in the Value Chain 12-35
36 OTHER TOOLS FOR IDENTIFYING STRATEGIC IT OPPORTUNITIES Scenario Planning - Used by leaders to address an uncertain future - Alternative scenarios for what the future might look like are developed - Typically a few major drivers are identified to create a matrix based on different values (e.g., high, low) of the drivers - Characteristics of the scenarios are then used to help plan for the future 12-36
37 FORMULATING OPERATIONAL IS PLANS Operational IS Plan Details the major initiatives the organization needs to carry out in the short term to achieve its strategic initiatives Action plans for one or more years based on Strategic IS Plan, with a focus on prioritizing projects currently underway and new projects Specifies for current and newly defined IS projects: - Expected benefits and risks - Due dates - Responsibilities 12-37
38 FORMULATING OPERATIONAL IS PLANS Balancing the risks and returns of the Portfolio of IS Projects 12-38
39 GUIDELINES FOR EFFECTIVE IS PLANNING 1. Early clarification of the purpose of the planning process is essential 2. The information resources planning effort should be viewed as an iterative effort 3. The plan should reflect realistic expectations 4. A unified approach to delivering IT services should be used 5. An effective IS plan will also take into consideration potential barriers and constraints 12-39
