Businesses that align information technology (IT) strategies with business strategies are significantly more likely to achieve a high return on IT investment, according to a survey of senior financial officers conducted by Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC) and Financial Executives International (FEI).
"Only by linking IT and business strategy can companies really assess the ultimate ROI of information technology investments," said Rebecca Segal, vice president, Worldwide Services and Solutions Integration Strategies Research. "This survey is a wake-up call for financial executives to take action given the potential benefits to be gained."
The sixth annual Technology Issues for Financial Executives survey that looked at the IT trends most critical for chief financial officers (CFOs) and other senior finance executives also found that only 10 percent of companies achieve a high rate of return on investment for IT projects. Among those companies with a business-aligned IT plan, however, that percentage more than doubles to 24 percent.
