Description

The Future COO in Tech Companies


This IDC Market Perspective introduces the role and main priorities of the Chief Operating Officer in technology companies in terms of core and evolving priorities and responsibilities as well as key KPIs. Subsequently, it focuses on their main interactions with other C-suite executives to ensure the company's success and on key technology investments in which tech operations leaders will focus on to enable business transformation. It concludes by providing guidance to technology company COOs on how to evolve in their role to support their organizations' business strategy development across three evolutionary stages: protector, enabler, and disruptor."With current market disruptions and economic uncertainties, the role of the Chief Operating Officer is rapidly evolving to become a key orchestrator within the C-suite, supporting corporate success and boosting internal innovation," said Martina Longo, senior research analyst, European Digital Business Strategies."Tech COOs need to balance building resilience and driving the company forward. Breaking down internal silos, being ready for the unexpected, and fostering a high-performance culture and innovation are critical elements of successful tech COOs," said Giulia Carosella, research manager, European Digital Business Strategies.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
