Balancing Supply and Demand in IT

Overview Enterprises have long defined their relationship to the market based on the model of supply and demand. The model predicts that in a competitive free market, price will function to equalize the quantity demanded by consumers and the quantity supplied by producers, resulting in an economic equilibrium. In recent years, IT executives and their business peers have also begun to define their interrelationship in terms of the supply and demand model. Many enterprises looking to operate more cost-effectively and gain business value from IT are evaluating the supply and efficiency of IT services delivered. They're also realizing they need to manage demand more effectively as well. Their goal: Find balance - a point of equilibrium - where the ability to deliver services satisfies the business need.
