New Technology Adoption Strategy in 2011... Synergetics Approach

By Synergetics Technology Transformation Group

Rapid , Revolutionary and Broad reaching changes initiated by new product/platform launches in Information Technology space along with the evolutions of new programming Paradigms/Methodology in Software Applications Development space and releases of Newer Versions of existing product suites; first up spring multiple challenges on Knowledge Acquisitions aspect in these areas as well as on Skills Development side

The broad classifications of challenges are: Knowledge acquisition Skill empowerment/improvement Moving in fast to stay ahead of competition

Most striking is ; along with these new challenges also come a whole new world of connected new business opportunities; which to encash means, move in fast and stay ahead of your competition. In fact these changes and disruptions provide redefinition to how business in general will operate in the future ; are most liked by SI and ISVs because this allows their business to thrive and reach newer heights ; gain newer clients with a refined set of new value propositions and new solutions.

For Software Services organizations i.e. SIs::System Integrators and ISVs ::Independent Software Vendors the primary challenge is to 1st identify and then adopt the most relevant technology/products/paradigm for its solutions spectrum, for its value propositions and for its client base.

They essentially need an unbiased opinion on the value of a technology and its business value propositions.

Identification of suitability of a particular technology is most crucial as Vendors create unprecedented Hype / Initial demand over each and every technology offerings and attempt to drive adoption even in the technology’s infancy stages putting the ISV / SIs in a quandary “ To adopt or Not to adopt ”. Early adoption gives First movers advantage which no software development organization wishes to miss. Business Drivers create Business Pressure.

The Vision v/s Hype kind of evaluation starts with getting to know Primary Feature / Functionality [FF] then getting to know What and Why aspects in the initial stages leading to the When and How then to Do’s and Don’ts and eventually to the Best and Next practices [BNP] aspects. The premium knowledgebase is the one that enables architecture and architecting of a solutions in these new technology space.

These changes and disruptions induce a redefinition as to how business in general will operate in the future.

This opens up opportunities for SI and ISVs, as:

• This allows their business to thrive and reach newer heights

• It provides them the basis for acquiring newer clients and/or providing refined set of value propositions and solutions.

The SI and ISVs hence need to 1^st identify and then adopt the most relevant technology / products / paradigm for its solutions spectrum, for its value propositions and for its client base.

They essentially need:

• An unbiased opinion on the value of a technology and its business value propositions.

• Identification of suitability of a particular technology is most crucial as Vendors create unprecedented Hype / Initial demand over each and every technology offerings

• undertaking early adoption, as it gives a First mover advantage which no software development organization wishes to miss.

The Vision v/s Hype kind of evaluation starts with Getting to know Primary Feature / Functionality

• Then getting to know What and Why aspects in the initial stages

• Leading to the When and How 

• Then to Do’s and Don’ts and

• Eventually to the Best and Next practices aspects.

This premium knowledgebase is the one that enables the architecture and architecting of the solutions in the new technology space.

Knowledge acquisition for various spectrum of professionals in a software development organization eventually followed by Skills Development for its front line staff that produces results is paramount.
