The role of a technology leader is far from simple… There’s the legacy system nobody wants to touch but everybody depends on. AI tools are springing up faster than governance can control. Regular security alerts flashing across the dashboard, and every month, the cloud bill creeps upward; quietly, relentlessly, like a subscription you forgot to cancel. Then if that’s not enough layer in the boardroom pressure, with its familiar refrain: “Where’s the ROI?”
It’s an all too familiar story across industries. Technology leaders are juggling the same pressures, technical debt that won’t disappear, skills in constant short supply, innovation demands that clash with operational needs, and budgets that never seem to stretch far enough.
Far be it from us to keep the good news to ourselves: modernisation is the way forward, and it doesn’t have to be complex, large scale or disruptive! Done right, it clears away legacy constraints, brings in the right expertise at the right time, balances innovation with stability, and builds resilience into the very fabric of the business. The challenge is knowing where to start, and how to keep control along the way.
In this white paper, we break down nine challenges facing technology leaders today, and pair them with practical lessons based on TXP’s seven core capabilities: legacy, bespoke apps, applications, cloud, data & AI, security, and resourcing. Along the way, you’ll hear from customers and partners who’ve proven it’s possible to modernise without the complexity.
