CSC Survey: CFOs Unhappy with IT

ContractorUK: Some finance chiefs have become so dissatisfied with IT that they are considering outsourcing their companies' IT functions. According to a CSC survey of 700 U.S. CFOs, 7 percent of respondents say they will evaluate this option over the next 12 months. Large financial companies are among companies most likely to outsource IT. A lack of communication appears to be at the crux of the dissatisfaction. Sixty percent of CFOs say they have no strategic IT plan in writing, despite all of the investment dollars going to IT. And one in three CFOs said that past IT projects were "less than successful." Some respondents cited IT's failure to understand the IT/business relationship and its "deficient" project management practices.

Unlimited Conferencing Models Emerge

Source: Communications News | Priority: Voice & Data Convergence | Topic: Groupware and Collaboration
Date Published: 8/1/2006 | Date Reviewed: 8/9/2006

TAKEAWAY: Clearly, one of the biggest advantages of conferencing — which increasingly is done via the Internet — is that it cuts down on costly travel. Yet conferencing isn't cheap. Global companies of about 1,000 employees can pay $250,000 per year for basic voice and video conferencing, while companies that employ 10,000 people can pay $2 million. More complex "all-hands" meetings can run an additional $10,000 per event. The second half of the story is particularly interesting. The writer says that the high cost of conferencing tends to limit the number of people in an organization allowed to participate. In order to alleviate this, some conferencing service providers are using the cost structure of VoIP as a reference point in building fixed-price unlimited models. In this way, more people in the organization can participate — which is particularly important as workers become more mobile and decentralized.
