The Business Takes Ownership Of Process And Intelligence
Forrester highlights that IT is losing its control over business intelligence platforms, tools and applications often due to IT’s inability to operate at the increased pace of the business. The report also notes that business process management, again a traditional domain of IT by-and-large, is increasingly becoming the domain of other functions as “a new class of users demands more user-friendly, self-service features to automate ad hoc processes without expensive and scarce IT resources.”
