‘A CIO should draw a roadmap of the skills required to deliver a technology’
Commitment as a Tech Head
The CIO/CTO has a clear roadmap and mandate to transform the organization to lead in this Digital Age. Advising and adopting the right business technology is going to be very important. IT representations in the Board and collaborating both internal and external have become a must to evolve. New dimensions in business, acceptance of oneself to change and adapt to these business requirement have become an imperative.
Experience Cell
People skills and training them on the latest technologies is always a challenge. I think this has to be taken up head on. Every CIO should draw a roadmap and skill sets required to deliver these technologies. Act before hand in skill sets regeneration. Plan experts and a COE team that can play an important role in training the trainer approach. Some skills can be delivered internally and some have to be outsourced. There is no single window concept of skill delivery. Being flexible for this approach is going to be important as having all skills under one roof is going to be practically not possible.
Key Priorities
Adoption of collaboration platforms, creating customer focused applications, digital deliveries, learning platforms, analytics within are some key areas of emerging niche technologies.
Agile enterprises drive flexible architecture with robust setups not necessary in-house. Customized business with clear areas of business skills will need skilled enterprise architectures. Looking at a plan which is in sync and well approved gets the leverage to understand and work on areas which form the backbone with front-end layers and middleware doing the flexibility. It is difficult to adapt and change things but business demands are playing clear winners in delivering those business requirements. Technologies which are playing a leading role are mobility, adoption of UI and its ease to change. SCM has become very challenging and complex due new business requirements and new avenues and demands.
Investment Plans for FY 18-19
Architecture change to cater to future dynamics, SCM enhancements, collaboration platforms, API development, new age Interfaces, Analytics and its proper business impact are some of the plans for this year. Also in the pipeline are adoption of RPA and AI.
