I have compiled some thoughts on the "relationship" between processes, the IT function, and the CIO (Chief Information Officer) in a blog article on www.enterprise2punkt.at
The article sets out to answer the following five questions:
- How much process know-how does a CIO need?
- Which role IT should/could/must adopt regarding the design of business processes?
- What is necessary for successful process innovation?
- (IT) sucess factors for process optimization alignment with business departments
- What business process management mistakes a COI should avoid
It is available at http://www.enterprise2punkt0.at/2012/08/prozesse-und-die-rollen-von-cio-und-it.html (unfortunately, at this time, only in German).
But - depending on this group's feedback - I might be persuaded to translate the article into English...
