Bottom LineQuality, Timeliness, Efficiency, Community

• Think big—extend to new business areas, and serve the generalist as well as the specialist• Geography as a foundation

• Manage information—data and tradecraft—as corporate resources with strong governance• Incentivize sharing, and incentivize using

• Engage and recruit every stakeholder in a collective• Make mission success the paramount objective

• Move small, but quickly, to deliver capabilities incrementally• Capitalize on web services to build and maintain agile systems

• Prepare for the long haul“Getting value from

enterprise systems is not a project but a way of life.”
