How does Technology improve a Business ?

Every business organisation has a Vision, Missio and a set of Key Business Objectives :

• A Vision – an aspiration – a statement that describes what the business intends to become

• A Mission – a statement that describes the purpose of the business

• Key Business Objectives (K.B.O) – a summary of goals the business intends to achieve, which can be further distilled to determine its corporate and operational strategies

8

Technology just like other tools will serve as a means to an already defined end. The role of technology in this case will be to provide necessary support that will aid the business in achieving its stated goals and objectives. Technology that attempts to alter a business’s vision, mission and K.B.Os may be considered detrimental to the business. This is because technology is made for the business and not the business for technology.

9

It is therefore imperative that the Vision, Mission and K.B.O of any business be first defined before making any technological investment. When clearly defined, they in-turn aid the business in determining the “WHATS” and “WHYS” of technology.

• According to IBM, 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are born every day (enough to fill more than 531 million DVDs), and 90 percent of the world's digital information was produced over the last two years.

• By 2020, the annual data-generation rate will balloon 4,300 percent to 35 zettabytes of intelligence, according to Falls Church, Va.-based Computer Sciences Corporation. (That's 7.35 trillion DVDs, in case you're keeping track).

• Several developments have facilitated the rise of a virtual workplace. Nearly 6 million Americans work from home, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Cloud computing enables data backups and remote collaboration in real time.
