The Issue:

Many organizations do not have centralized control when it comes to who is making the decisions to mobile-enable applications. According to Nemertes’recent benchmark, Building the Successful Virtual Workplace, it’s a mixed bag: Groups make 47.4% of the decisions and a variety of individuals, from engineers to CEOs, make the remaining 52.6% of decisions. This kind of “collaborative purchasing” framework makes it difficult for enterprises to put in place a consistent process and set of standards for wireless procurement, because different groups/units often purchase against their own requirements, which may not match those of other groups. And without centralized control, in cases of conflicting requirements, which set of requirements wins?

Organizations must focus on putting a consistent framework in place, in order to move smoothly from planning to implementation. The entire enterprise must work together to access the true current state, allowing the organization to leverage any mobility infrastructure it already has in place.
