In the industry, innovation does NOT mean…
• Running ahead of technological innovation at all costs
• Implementing breakthroughs independently the one with the other
• Trying to implement alone strategic enhancements which have already been implemented by others
• Pleasing the Company’s Executive Committee Members by providing them with up-to-date smartphones…
• … In other words, sacrificing effectiveness for efficiency
7
But achieving excellence via innovation means…
• Developing and implementing a Global well-defined business-oriented strategy dealing with innovation
• Making sure breakthrough projects do have business cases and ROIC meeting the company rules
• Using innovative solutions in areas where the company can get a competitive advantage from them
• Accepting to learn from skilled and trusted IS/IT partners and rely on them for help in implementation
• … In other words, focusing as always on improving the business processes while enjoying both efficiency and effectiveness

A new deal with external partners
• Forget contracts built to last. Build contracts to accommodate change and be prepared for contract co-management
• Rely on cost-efficient partners– IT production and help desk outsourcers, on top of operational
excellence– IS development offshore company, on top of high QCT ratios
to help increase the effectiveness by for example– Moving the infrastructure environment to ITIL standards– Implementing ISO9001-2000 certification process and
obtaining the certification on a sustainable basis– Moving Application Development capabilities to CMMI level 3
and above in a given timeframe• But never delegate the core business: targeting COBIT
standards, developing and implementing IS/IT strategy, consolidating Enterprise Architecture
10
A new deal with IS/IT staff and business partners
• Shift_Management– Recognize that contract co-management demands a new set of
competencies– Move from a team management culture to a contract co-
management culture thus become process-oriented while remaining focused on results
– Identify complementary sets of objectives with commitments and targets linked to knowledge transfer
– Explain the strategy an its labor consequences to works councils and employees
• Stop communicating using IS/IT metrics; focus on business performance: define IS/IT services in business terms and ask external partners to translate them into technical terms
• And continue to bear the total responsibility of the deliveries to customers and senior management of the company

Global multi-sourcing is a long journey…• Is there a theory to get right the insource /
outsource balance?• Are captive companies a solution to deficiencies of
outsourcing / offshoring or a complement to them?• Is the management of the Company ready to learn
to work with suppliers– Remotely instead of locally– Low cost instead of high cost– With a lower quality assurance– With higher natural lead times– With potential cultural and language barriers?
• Does anyone here know of a single winning formula?
Destination will not be the same…
