If you are not personally using it by having a cell phone, or personal computer, technology is definitely touching and connected with your everyday activities. I’m not talking about surveillance or security measures, although we encounter these daily. You walk into a bank, technology is used to identify you as the account holder, and security cameras monitor and record the fact that you were at the bank.

Technology in our personal lives is all too common, cell phones, our watches, desktop computers and the thermostat in your home. For anyone to say they stay away from the use of technology is like trying to remain in the stone ages while change is taking place all around. The work place is where you can be on the cutting edge of these changes and new technologies. New small businesses are started every year. The small business owner who knows what’s available (in technology) and how to use it can make the difference in you gaining a sale or your competition getting the customer you lost.

Many are reluctant to change, for those who hesitate; you will more than likely miss how technology is changing how we communicate and how it’s changing how business is transacted. With tight deadlines and long meetings, technology can help streamline your processes, help you realize customer needs and help you maximize your time. When new technology hits the market place, techies will often rush to be the first with latest and greatest, knowing how to get the maximum use from these products is another story. Let’s take smart phones for instance, of you are a business owner and your phone is simply for making calls, you’re not maximizing the use of your smart phone. With the ability to cash checks and securely process credit cards, features like these can help small business owners increase cash flow, if your smart phone is more of a social networking device, you can also use social networks to keep taps on advertising campaigns.

The possibilities are only limited by your imagination and knowledge of the functionality of the technology you are using. Being a tech savvy person on the job could mean job security in an environment when other shuns new technology. When someone has no perceived need for a piece of technology, they have also forgone the opportunity to learn valuable information as to how the functionality of device, could improve their business, their processes at their place of employment or their personal lives.

When it comes to technology in the work place, what you don’t know in this age of technology could be bad; what you personally know about technology and you introduce it to your place of employment could make you an asset.

Say the words “technology management”, and some people have a look of puzzlement on their faces – they have no idea what the term means.  Basically, technology management follows the same course as other strategies applied in the workplace in order to further the success and sustainability of a company or organization:  Planning, organizing, staffing, implementing and monitoring/evaluation.  The one difference is that in technology management, you add the “technology” factor to the mix.  

Nearly every individual today knows that technology is meant to make life simpler and more streamlined.  Today, information technology management allows companies to make their business more competitive by utilizing available information technology resources.  Corporations and companies of all sizes benefit through information technology management, as managers and business owners discover effective ways to utilize technology so that the operation and standing of the company is improved in a competitive business environment.  Technology management is necessary in all divisions, including marketing and communications, development of products, process innovations and reporting efficiency.  Through these strategies, companies are able to create value and remain competitive with a cutting-edge advantage.

Information technology management can be useful in all levels of business, from online websites and internal business functions to management of daily activities in the workplace.  In the corporate environment, information technology management assists owners and managers in determining the markets they choose to operate in.  Most businesses today have an online presence in the form of a website; those in technology management can set up such a presence, making ordering materials and other goods easier and efficient.  In any business setting, forecasting production and projecting sales is essential; information technology also becomes useful in this sense, since many companies use software to create this data.

In any type of technology management, it is essential that an individual or team take responsibility for implementing and developing strategies that are functional, efficient and designed to make the everyday tasks of business easier and more efficient.  At this point, efficient technology management requires that employees and management understand how these processes work, and how to use them in the most productive manner.  In today’s business environment most tasks, communications and projects are made simpler due to the ease of transfer of information between departments and individuals.  This means that good technology management often does away with time-wasting, needless activities that essentially cost the company money.

In the workplace, it’s easy for productivity and efficiency to suffer; time necessary to complete tasks and projects can be drastically reduced, resulting in an impact to the bottom line.  Good technology management often results in an improvement in all aspects of business, including finance, accounting, research and development and human resources.  Various software applications, programs and computers increase the productivity of individual employees, making many processes automatic, accurate and more efficient.  In order to remain competitive in the business environment and stand apart from direct competitors, efficient technology management is an essential investment.

Fortune 500 companies invest heavily in IT and technology today. A good percentage of the IT investment is geared towards automating some repetitive or laborious business process. The idea is to improve efficiency by accelerating a particular business process through use of technology and perhaps use some enterprise software product for the same.

However before using technology to examine how things can be automated and accelerated it is first important to examine whether the advances in information technology and communication make the need for an existing business process unnecessary, irrelevant, redundant, or obsolete. This way a company’s resources can accordingly be better reorganized and used more effectively towards achieving the organization business objectives rather that spending that time and energy in automating unnecessary processes.

Thus we define Technological Process Engineering as using advancements in Information technology, communication and online networking to the fundamentally rethink and radically redesign business processes and their supporting IT products to achieve dramatic improvements in performance, such as cost, quality, service, and speed and most importantly achieve business objectives and customer satisfaction.

The challenge then is to identify how to re engineer business process and work things better by leveraging the advents in technology. The central idea is to be technology centric and business objectives centric versus being legacy centric and process centric. The developments in technology may obviate certain business processes but the habit and inertia of doing things a particular way limits managers to think within the box. Instead managers end up using technology to accelerated existing processes through IT, before evaluating whether technology can be used to replace a business process or have better value-added steps through technological process reengineering.

The first step is to examine what are the business objectives of the division and/or organization. Examine the organization mission statement and the value asset that the organization delivers. The key is to understand what are the business needs, rather than how it is currently being done

A Use Case Analysis supplemented by workflow diagrams and storyboard analysis is a great way to capture the existing business case. However the use cases at this point must be kept focused on what is needed and not how to accomplish that need.

Secondly examine what the customers want and what is their business need. The customers could be the end customers or for instance all the stakeholders within the value chain are in turn customers to each other.

Once everyone understands what the business needs are it is time to brainstorm existing technology tools and focus on the “how”.  This will allow one to think out of the box and apply technology solutions while understanding the core underlying business need. Think of what technological innovation will allow the business need to be met directly without the need of additional steps in between.

Also examine how some technology is currently being used by people outside the business world. This is a leading indicator that that technology can and will soon becomes part of the business world. For example email communication started off as being part of personal use however soon extended to business use. Similarly twitter and other social networking sites started of as platforms of personal use but have now become a way for businesses to connect with their clients and audience.

Thus this technology-centric process improvement focuses on ways and means to leverage the ever changing world of business technology and communication. It thinks about innovations in business process as a result of technology and technology is the “Pull” Driver instead of existing processes and habits limiting one’s imagination and forcing existing Business processes to drive the same. Tools and advanced in technology and communication can be applied towards meeting the customer objectives by examining if certain processes can be replaced with technology rather than adapting technology to automate existing process.
