Details

Cost optimization needs to be a continuous activity that is collaborative, agile, transparent, and integrated. Most traditional cost controls lack these characteristics because they were designed for a relatively static environment in which the recent past could reliably predict future needs. This is no longer the case. Today, many traditional methods including traditional strategic sourcing approaches have been rendered obsolete. Standalone sourcing approaches should be replaced by more agile ways of working that are tuned to optimize non-commoditized spend. These approaches enable management spend throughout the solution lifecycle and solve for the interdependencies of services, software, cloud, network, security and devices in how we work. Source IT will address ways to optimize the supplier ecosystem, improve processes and controls, bring new tools and approaches to sourcing and refresh the ways that we work in sourcing IT and technology-enabled business solutions.

Returning for its fifth year, ISG SourceIT brings together a community of ISG thought-leaders, peer enterprises and leading visionaries from start ups and academia to help you develop the strategy and partner ecosystem suitable for your unique business challenges. Join us to explore the flexible and agile approaches required to spend smarter and achieve better business outcomes from your sourcing contracts.

What You'll Discover:
Here are three themes we'll explore at SourceIT:

1. A Connected Digital Ecosystem.
Intelligent products and services can only truly be effective in a connected enterprise.
How do you design and source an operating model to achieve a digital thread? Are there emerging partnership models that can turn the complex into possible?
We’ll show you how to connect your enterprise while driving innovation and efficiency.

2. Next-level Resiliency.
This decade has forced us to deal with more extreme and more sudden events. Resilience on the next level is in demand.
Are you able to mitigate the consequences of disruption? Planned or unplanned? Are you taking a transformation-first approach? One that lets you proactively see and adapt to the changes as they unfold?
We’ll show you how to evolve with confidence.

3. The Future of Security Operations.
Accelerated digital transformation initiatives resulted in a significant expansion of the attack surface, creating a higher likelihood of exploitation.
What operating models are you leveraging to protect your core business? Who are the key strategic partners you’ve enlisted to help?
We’ll show you the best practices for sourcing cybersecurity.
