Executive Summary
In Q1, 2023, ADAPT conducted 17 in depth, semi-structured interviews with Australian executives. The purpose of the study was to understand how executives are pursuing tech-enabled change and what opportunities exist to pursue these changes more effectively.
This report details the support is needed from strategic partners when articulating the business value of technology-enabled change. Two other reports detail the other findings from this study. The second examines how–with costs rising faster than revenues and a deepening cyber threat landscape– budget to outcome strategies are evolving. The final report reveals how improved corporate, technology and people strategy alignments can drive more valuable change, faster.
Specifically, this report will explore:
- Support required from partners to articulate the value of tech-enabled investments.
- Perceived attributes of vendors compared to strategic partners.
- Changes in engagement models and choices between insourcing and outsourcing.
- Influence of stakeholder attitudes on what organisations buy, from whom.
- How those attitudes and their influence on procurement are changing.
The report will expand, with light editing, on these points with the voice of these executives.
