Event Overview
Drawing on 35+ years’ experience across the entire digital solution life cycle, Pete Thompson will introduce us to his new trilogy of books, the BCS Digital Solutions Collection. Each book focuses on a key stage of developing and delivering successful digital solutions:
- Defining Digital Solutions ensures the right solution is identified and aligned with business needs.
- Designing Digital Solutions focuses on building the solution right, applying sound design and architectural principles and practices.
- Delivering Digital Solutions emphasises the importance of careful and methodical execution, reminding us that even the best-designed solution will fail if poorly delivered.
The trilogy highlights the importance of the POPIT model - People, Organisation, Processes, Information, and Technology - to ensure that a holistic approach is taken to the development and adoption of digital solutions. While technology is central to this, the books consistently stress the importance of its interaction with the other four components. This holistic view is woven throughout all three volumes.
The guidance offered builds on time-tested best practices, providing a strong foundation for current and future developers, ensuring these principles endure in a rapidly changing technological landscape. Even in times of constant transformation - where technology both drives and enables change - the core principles of good practice remain essential and should never be overlooked.
