How to relate the 2015 IT trends for competitive
advantage back to your business
 Which of our customer segments does this trend address?
 How are our competitors/related agencies harnessing these trends (or falling
to do so)?
 How are non-competitors applying these trends
 Will this trend create new competitors for us?
 Where does this trend create potential new partners or collaborators for us?
 How does this trend impact our industry and all of its parts?
 Who are the drivers of change in these trend? Which companies, founders,
startups?
 How will the wants, needs and expectations of our customers change as a
result of this trend?
 How does this trend inspire us?
 How does this trend help us think about innovation?

The three IT infrastructure shifts
Cloud deployment
has grown 92% since 20124
In 2014 alone,
digitized data grew
by 50%
to 6 trillion terabytes1
Worldwide purchases over
mobile devices are expected
to exceed $1 trillion
by 20172
In January 2014, for the first time,
Americans used their smart
phone and tablet
applications more than their PCs
to access the internet3
Data is the new basis of competitive
advantage.
Cloud is the path to new business
models.
A systematic approach to engagement is now required.

To what extent are your infrastructure choices determined by line of business
requirements?
¿In what ways can your organization use IT infrastructure as a tool to achieve
competitive differentiation in the marketplace? What examples show that this is
already happening to some degree?
To what extent is your IT infrastructure equipped to handle new workloads
associated with mobile, social and analytic applications?
How will you prepare your existing IT infrastructure to address emerging security
issues and disaster recovery scenarios?
What is your organization’s strategy for incorporating various forms of cloud
technology (for example, private, hybrid, public) into the larger, existing IT
infrastructure? What challenges has this posed for the IT organization?
