Choose an information technology and develop a business case for implementing the technology in your company (or a publicly traded company). NOTE - this is most likely NOT the same as your emerging technology, unless you can make a strong case for it.

Be sure to include the following:

  • A brief background on the company. What does it do, company size, where does it fit in the overall industry, financial situation, etc.
  • What is the generic strategy (e.g, cost leader, differentiator, focus) the company is pursuing? Note, this real strategy might be very different than the strategy statement the company puts out.
  • High level overview of the technology - what is it and how does it work.
  • How well does the technology proposed align with corporate strategy?
  • What are the high level costs and benefits (no need for detail here, but are we talking thousands, millions, billions, etc.)?
  • Make some concrete recommendations as to how the company can best implement the proposed technology
    • Has the company successfully implemented similar projects in the past?
    • How is change typically handled and received in your company?
      • What was the outcome of past change initiatives?
  • Make a recommendation for why the company should invest in this technology. Be sure to back up your recommendation.
