Currently on an average 70-75% of the IT Spend $ are spent on maintenance & ‘keep the plane flying’ activities while less than 20% is spent on Innovation or Business Enablement projects. Organizations have been struggling to optimize the overall IT spend by prioritizing the initiatives that are being run as part of the IT Function.
