He wasn’t a back-room boy. Third, the IT function is part of a whole. The systems are useless unless the company culture supports them, and people are well qualified to use them. People are probably more important than the system. Relationships are important. The CIO spends a considerable amount of his or her time selling, explaining, being there for the business, and generally not managing IT. Even if it’s a disaster, what happens to the internal IT function? Even if IT is a total disaster, and the business turns its back on the in-house function or even fires it, the IT does not go away.
Step 4: Testing: Programme, System, and User Acceptance – the system is tested Testing, negotiating and arm-twisting is more like it. ’ It also seems illogical that the testing phase of any project is the most time-compressible. As the project slips, the implementation date remains constant. We justify this compression of all testing into one frantic week or month by saying, ‘we padded the timetable here anyway,’ never realising that more slippage equals more testing. And why has the project slipped anyway?
5 On all sides – threats to the in-house function 21 Step 2: the requirements: the business details their need in such a way that the IT function can translate it into a system (or a prototype). Usually this takes the form of a specification document. ) Here’s the rub. ) that I have a problem with: 1 A spec. assumes that the business knows what it wants – in detail. Often they don’t, and why should they? So, they read something in a magazine or some guru’s management breakthrough book, and they want some of that.
