How can we ensure the success of Informatization?

This is an old topic, and many people have expressed their opinions. However, when the company is facing Information Decision-making, I have to rethink this question: how can we ensure the success of our company's information investment?

Many of the online statements come from vendors. From the fundamental perspective of our company, what can we do to ensure success?

Or can I answer the first question first? Will informatization be successful? The answer is obviously no. History has proved that many enterprises are not successful in informatization. The simplest example is that when we look back, which enterprises are successful in informatization? You will find very few.

Lenovo is successful. At least I think so. Because he spent a lot of money, the most important thing is that his business is completely based on information technology. Without information technology, there will be no current Lenovo. Are you sure Lenovo is successful?

Lenovo is a boat-breaking information technology. We can also learn from this practice. This has actually completed a very important factor, that is, establishing a unified sense of urgency and Decision-Making direction.

Informatization is essentially a process of change. Therefore, the elements of success or failure of this change can be analyzed by means of change.

I,
Project duration (duration
), Especially the project evaluation interval;

II,
Integrity
), That is, the capabilities of the project team;

III,
Commitment
);

IV,
The amount of extra work that employees must pay to cope with changes
).

The above four points are also called dice factors. By adjusting these factors, we can ensure the success of the change. I thought about the situation of our company from the above four perspectives, we need to do the following to ensure the success of information technology.

First,
Establish a project feedback mechanism

Second,
Strong process analysis capability is added to the team

Third,
Seek support from senior managers

Fourth,
Ask employees for help early

Let me briefly describe it. The feedback mechanism of the project should be established or imagined before the project investment. This is the most important criterion for measuring investment, that is, ROI.
, Computing
ROI
The most important thing is the gap between the two standards. The shorter the feedback interval, the better. Real-time feedback is preferred.

At present, all systems are in the midst of waste, and the most necessary capability is the process sorting capability. This lack of capabilities may lead to the lack of capabilities and vision of the entire project team, resulting in project delays and failures.

Support from senior managers? Isn't that a problem? But it is precisely the problem. Because not the top management can recognize the importance of informatization. This must be integrated to open up a line to ensure the success of informatization. We must actively ensure the smoothness of information technology.

What is most likely to be affected by changes is our frontline staff. It is better to ask for help and find a win-win situation after they are expected to change. In this way, the change will be more confident and successful.

After completing the above four points, I feel more like the following basic arrangements:

First,
Establish System meteorological stations

Second,
Process Management, please enter the information project

Third,
Incorporate information of senior managers into performance

Fourth,
Employees are arranged in the implementation team.

From the current point of view, doing well above should play a significant role in the success of our informatization.
