Strategic Technology Outline In today’s society, instant communication has become more prevalent due to telecommunications technology, which has been a major contributor to worldwide, modern technological advancements. People often take for granted that they have the world at their fingertips at the click of a button, or that you can pick up the phone and connect with someone halfway around the world instantly, seeing or hearing them just as you would your next-door neighbor. The technology trends in telecommunications are breaking down barriers and setting the trend for modern-day innovations in technology. Implementing new technology in a business environment involves an analysis of the technology, performing an analysis of related and competing technologies, performing impact analysis on the organization for the new technology, and strategy to implement technology in the business.

As quickly as technology evolves, an organization must be able to adapt and apply new and developing technologies to its business plans and procedures.
IV. Strategy to implement technology in the organization
a. Every implementation of new technology or use of a product requires some form of testing or trial. The framework imperfections are assessed and modified
b. User training is a critical part of the strategic plan when implementing new technology into an organization. Users are unlikely to use the new technology to its full potential if adequate training is not provided. Staff preparing, framework upkeep, and assessment of results are fundamental steps in this process.
c. Documentation of the new technology, policies, and procedures must be documented for current and future use and support of the new technology.
