Company principles

1 Understand the problem Listen carefully and observe users at work.	5 Usability The technology is useless unless novices want to use it.
2 Solutions, not technology for technology's sake Technology is never the whole answer.	6 People make technology successful Ensure people are prepared and processes are in place to make the technology effective.
3 It has to make economic sense Demonstrate an acceptable cost/benefit before implementing a solution.	7 Don't create silos Strive for an integrated world where all applications talk to each other.
4 Think of the big picture Technology should be an integral part of the organization’s strategy, and the specific solution a part of the target architecture.	8 On time, on budget Deliver solutions within prior agreements of cost and time.
