IT-Business Alignment: IT's Hardest Puzzle
Michael Schrage relates the lamentable series of unfortunate
events that befell a global corporation implementing a CRM
system. The cavalcade of conflict and distress was blamed on
the CIO, although the system worked perfectly. His mistake:
He confused implementing systems that work effectively with
implementing a system that is used effectively. Reader,
take heed.

1. Weigh In: Paths to Alignment
Restructuring can be painful. CIOs share steps they've taken
to make the reorganization road smoother--and make their
roles more strategic.

2. CIO Roundtable: What CIOs Tell Their CEOs

what would you say?

3. SOA: Building the Compliance Infrastructure

service-oriented architecture, but the payback for the

every organization in a mad scramble? Regulatory compliance.

4. Analyst Corner: Are Open-Source Integration Solutions Mature?
Not really. Forrester believes that large organizations need
to invest and participate in open-source committees to drive
requirements and interoperability standards and fund the
development of more capable and coherent open source
integration solutions.
