IDC research shows that SaaS technologies are projected to constitute a quarter of all new enterprise software purchases by 2016, while PWC estimates that SaaS delivery will make up approximately 14.2 percent of all software spending. Overall, the entire SaaS market is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 21.3 percent over the next two years.” As a consultant working within a number of large and medium sized organisations over the past several years, I’m used to seeing common problems being solved over and over again, everywhere I go. Some big and some small, some more necessary than others and some with varying degrees of ‘fit for purpose’ tweaks. After all, every business is different and every implementation needs to fit the business context around what it supports. Shift toward ‘as-a-service’ However, there is a shift taking place and more and more businesses are starting to see the benefits of moving towards “as a service” type arrangements. The transformation isn’t necessarily a new one; the introduction of web based email and corporate social networks have become a staple of the modern organisation, as well as support and maintenance team products such as Sharepoint, Dropbox and Skype. All of these functions within the business which have begun the transformation to Software as a Service offerings have one thing in common which confuses the bigger picture. They generally still fall into the IT or technology bucket of the organisation. They perform well serving their single purpose but very often they support a technical role within the business - after all they are still technical tools. - [Dane Porter](https://blog.leonardo.com.au/author/dane-porter) - 5 min read - Aug 16, 2016 11:50:29 AM ## [Is Efficient, Cost-Effective Integration Possible?](https://blog.leonardo.com.au/is-efficient-cost-effective-integration-possible) An analysis on the next major paradigm shift.

In this article, we discuss how the requirements and artefacts – use cases, functional specifications, technical specifications and prototypes – can be managed effectively during the project’s life cycle. - [Anita Halse](https://blog.leonardo.com.au/author/anita-halse) - 2 min read - Jan 4, 2016 9:00:00 AM ## [Why inventory of IT applications is business critical](https://blog.leonardo.com.au/why-inventory-of-it-applications-is-business-critical) IT applications contribute to the support of business processes, or other applications, thanks to the execution of IT software. Directly or indirectly, IT applications have one main purpose: supporting the business in the most efficient way. They can be considered as an asset of the enterprise. - [Frederick Halas](https://blog.leonardo.com.au/author/frederick-halas) - 6 min read - Dec 31, 2015 6:00:00 AM [**](https://blog.leonardo.com.au/topic/bpmea-technology/page/1) -
