Most IT organizations suffer from growing complexity. This is exacerbated in the Digital Age, as emerging Digital Transformation technologies increase the need for IT organizations to operate efficiently and effectively. Thus, IT simplification is a critical foundation for Digital Transformation initiatives.

The aim of IT simplification is to reduce the number of applications, interfaces, and technologies to create a clean IT landscape.

This presentation on IT Simplification examines the 6 levers of IT simplification—derived from the 6 areas of IT complexity:

1. IT Demand Management
2. Application and Data Landscape
3. IT Infrastructure
4. IT Organization and Workforce
5. IT Governance and Processes
6. IT Location and Sourcing Setup

Other topics covered include the IT Simplification Models, Root Causes of IT Complexity, Domains of IT Complexity, and Dominant Complexity Patterns. This deck also includes templates you can use in your own business presentations.

This PPT delves into the intricacies of IT complexity, categorizing it into six primary areas. Each area is meticulously analyzed to identify specific domains of high IT complexity, such as state-of-the-art application landscape complexity management and strategic workforce management. The presentation provides actionable insights into transforming these complex domains into simplified, efficient IT operations.

The presentation also outlines two distinct approaches to IT simplification projects: comprehensive multi-year programs and level-specific simplification initiatives. Comprehensive programs address broad IT complexity issues, potentially reducing the total IT cost base by up to 30%. Level-specific initiatives focus on targeted problems, achieving significant cost savings and operational efficiencies within shorter timeframes.

Root causes of IT complexity, including rapid growth and low business-IT collaboration, are examined in detail. The document emphasizes the importance of addressing these root causes to streamline IT processes and enhance business-IT alignment. This comprehensive guide is essential for any organization aiming to stay competitive through effective IT simplification.
