Welcome
to develop uk’s IT business partnering
home page.
Here you will find resources and support available for IT Professionals
and IT Business Partners to ‘Partner the Business’.
IT has a critical role in engaging the business in opportunities
to effectively use technology and enabling the achievement of organisational
strategy. IT and its practitioners provide insights and information
in an increasingly complex environment, provide essential business
services and manage technology costs and process efficiency. This
contribution provides an excellent opportunity for IT to build a
reputation as an added-value function, strategically aligned to
meet short and long-term business needs.
It’s not just about the technology! To deliver this vision,
the IT function has to consider how it organises itself to manage
the balance between strategic, operational and transactional activities
that its customers need. IT professionals working closely with business
customers need to develop genuine strategic understanding, excellent
communication and relationship management skills and the ability
to influence and add value at a senior level.
Our dedicated resources support the review and embedding of partnering
approaches and the development of partnering skills and capability.
This includes consultancy, development and training programmes for
IT Business Partners, the develop uk IT Partnering Academy, experience
of IT partnering assignments, IT partnering tools, IT Business Partner
competencies and resources.
