The soured economy has exposed vulnerabilities in what had seemed to be an
intrinsically strong interest by enterprises in mobile and wireless
technologies.
But while enterprises are more realistic regarding today's mobile and
handheld opportunities, demonstrable case studies and best practices are
emerging from enterprises within vertical industries. Those companies that
use this time in a down economy to plan how mobility fits and benefits
their processes will be in the best position to execute their plans and
leverage the best practices when the economy and IT spending improve. Those
companies that wait until the economy begins improves before formulating a
plan will be in a severely weakened position as their competition begins to
execute. Therefore, it is essential to formulate a plan for how mobile fits
in your business processes now, regardless of your short-term investment
plans, because such a vision is also critical to assessing the strategies
open to your competition and how their implementation can impact your
business.
