Transistion from IT -> BT

The transition from IT(Information Technology) to BT (Business Technology)continues, evidenced by the absorption of traditional IT roles throughout the business organization and the increasing number of business executives who are taking ownership of technology decisions. Successful BT operating models exist along a continuum of leadership balance between the CIO (chief Information Officer) and business executives. CIOs in pursuit of successful BT work to grow a partnership between themselves and business leadership by changing the way IT and the business connect around technology management and adopting tactics that help drive the change incrementally.

Thus,,, many companies will tend to outsource their hardcore IT roles, while transferring the cross-functional IT roles to other departments.
