Maribel Lopez in Forbes: The Four Phases Of Enterprise Mobility

Blog post by Steve Kovsky, Sep 28 2012

Analyst Maribel Lopez writes in Forbes.com today that there are four distinct phases in the progression on enterprise mobility. These phases are as follows:

  1. Informal. As the name states, no formal process is in place and most initiatives are personal efforts or based on requests from various executives.
  2. Silos. In phase two, different divisions plan and execute separate initiatives that may overlap.
  3. Coordinated. In this phase, enterprise standards exist but divisions are free to plan and execute their own initiatives, as long as the initiatives adhere to the company standard.
  4. Integrated. In the final phase, initiatives are based on a formal enterprise strategy and roadmap. Initiatives are planned, executed and monitored centrally.
