Some Ideas to Identify a Business Problem
Lack of competitiveness or profitability
Inefficient processes
Slow product development
Obsolete IT organization and technologies

Poor corporate communications
Ongoing personnel issues
Some Benefits it Will Provide the Organization
Financial—profitability, revenue, product costs
Improved competitiveness
Better marketing positioning
Efficiency in key processes, for example, sales, manufacturing, and development
Improved product or service quality
Improved product development
Better and more accurate support turnaround
Preparation for the future—how is the organization positioning itself for future growth
Some Ideas on How the Project Could Tie Together
As an example, you could write your paper on some aspect of e-commerce. You might tie it into targeted
advertising. You could then tie the back-end databases that are necessary to support e-commerce. For example, how
databases contain information that allows vendors to target their audience and what those databases are.
Another example might be the functionality of enterprise systems. You might choose a specific enterprise
system like ERP, CRM, or SCM and detail how the functionality is delivered. This could be how a business person
would access this type of information.
The business problem is high cost of IT and product development, and the benefits are profitability, faster
development time, or increased sales. The solution might be Cloud computing describing the Cloud computing
approach taken; for example, SaaS or Cloud virtualization.
