2Introduction to HighVelocity ITKey Terms Covered in the ModuleHigh-Velocity IT is the application of digital technology for significant business enablement,where time to market, time to customer, time to change, and speed, in general, is crucial. It isnot restricted to fast development and is required from innovation through development andoperations to the actual realization of value.Digital Technology the technology that digitizes something or processes digital data, suchas text, sound, and images. Digitization is the process of transforming something from analogto digital form or expressing digital data in binary digits. Digital technology refers to digitizedInformation Technology (IT) and the parts of digitized Operational Technology (OT).Information Technology (IT) is the application of digital technology to store, retrieve,transmit, and manipulate data (data processing), often in the context of a business or otherkind of organization.Operational Technology (OT) is the application of digital technology for detecting or causingchanges in physical devices through monitoring or control or both.Digital Transformation is a process of using digital technology to enable a significantimprovement in realizing organizational objectives that are difficult to achieve feasibly throughnon-digital means.Digital Product is a product that an organization store and deliver in its electronic format,and the consumers receive and use these products electronically.Digital Service is the electronic delivery of information across multiple platforms and devices,for example, buying a physical product online.Based upon AXELOS ITIL materials.

All rights reserved.What does having a high-velocity IT mean?Some digital organizations are more digital, and some are less.Likewise, some organizations have higher operating velocity thanothers. An organization having a higher velocity does not mean it willalways be having a positive impact on the business. The velocity atwhich an organization should operate depends on its nature. Someorganizations might require high velocity for its operations. However,for some organizations, a lower velocity can be beneficial. Therefore,high velocity cannot always be a better step. Organizations should nottry to have higher velocity just for the sake of matching the competitor’sstandards.Applying the high-velocity IT to the entire organization is not necessary.Let us consider an example of an organization that has dynamiccustomer-facing systems that require high-velocity IT way of workingfor their efficient management. On the other hand, its back-office has6 Copyright 2020

Keep the utility and warranty intact.{{High velocity often referred to as high performance. It doesnot mean it will negatively impact the utility and warrantyof the solution. Some situations might occur whereorganizations consciously choose to take risks to gain acompetitive advantage. Organizations also take some risksunconsciously due to a lack of understanding and dilutionof warnings (before the information has reached decisionmaking levels). Decision-makers can also take risks due tothe influence of one-sided targets. Has speed and direction.{{In scientific terms, velocity has both speed and direction.You can interpret high-velocity IT as doing the right thingsto meet the business requirements and making the rightdecisions about investment and sustainability. Involves costs and risks.{{High-velocity IT provides organizations with higher degreesof digital enablement. However, increasing the operatingvelocity of an organization always involves costs and risks,especially in the case of changing any step than a gradualimprovement. Therefore, analyzing whether the increasein velocity will be a prudent investment is essential. Someorganizations do not prefer to undertake transformation andincrease the velocity due to: Higher priorities in handCopyright 2020 7

Traditionally, organizations perceive the value of informationtechnology as increased efficiency, providing automatedinformation systems. Organizations primarily use the information derived from thetraditional, automated information systems for internal decisionmaking to reduce uncertainty. More recently, narrow Artificial Intelligence, such as MachineLearning, has applied IT not only to process and provide databut also to create new information.Organizations primarily use the information gathered fromtraditional, automated information systems for internal decisionmaking. In this way, they help to reduce uncertainty, which is theprimary function of information.10 Copyright 2020

Module 2 Introduction to High-Velocity ITAn organization can realize the return on IT investments only whenpeople or things act on decisions that have been improved byinformation derived from automated information systems. If no actionis taken, then no value is created. In some cases, the action can be todo nothing, for instance, to avoid risk.The following figure demonstrates the contribution of the IT stack increating value through informed decision-making.The IT Value StackCopyright AXELOS Limited 2020.

OT devices can be as small as the Engine Control Module(ECM) of a car or as large as the distributed control network fora national electricity grid. Industrial Control Systems (ICS) is a major segment in the fieldof OT. It comprises systems that are used to monitor and controlindustrial processes, such as Supervisory Control and DataAcquisition (SCADA) systems, Distributed Control Systems(DCS), Remote Terminal Unit (RTU), Programmable LogicControllers (PLC), dedicated networks, and organization units. Embedded Systems also play a vital role in the field of OT, alongwith a large subset of scientific data acquisition and control andcomputing devices.Internet of Things (IoT) gives the ability to connect OT devices toother OT devices and information systems.Digital OrganizationsThe DefinitionDigital Organization is an organization enabled by digitaltechnology to do business significantly differently or to dosignificantly different business.Based upon AXELOS ITIL materials.
