Gartner suggests that by 2010 six out of 10 IT professionals will assume business facing roles*. A new book from British Computer Society (BCS), Exploiting IT for Business Benefit by Bob Hughes, will help IT practitioners understand the business implications of IT system development and deployment.

Bob explains: “There is a growing awareness within organisations of the strategic importance of IT and the growth of e-business applications which has moved IT applications from the back-room to the front shop of customer relationships.”

As we integrate the IT with the business or the business with the IT, we see the alignment of IT to the business. It’s not enough to do IT, we need the team to understand the infrastructure and the application to know what happens if server17 fails, what if feed4 breaks, how to fix or co-ordinate issues, how to manage and continually improve IT in terms of service and delivery.
