Why we love SaaS … as do our customers

• No upfront cost spike

• Start slowly and build

• No IT Guys

• We can get up and running super fast

• We can give a new business model a crack on the cheap

• Price transparency

• Low risk

• Strong support


CIO Bypass

• My CIO wont let me use ……• We have banned…. (1990’s) Internet email, internet access

(2000’s) Youtube, Facebook • I have to join the queue with other requirements• They want a business case• What I want is outside the standard environment• Why can I get access to this at home but not at work


New models


SaaS for everyone


With Open Innovation

The initial prototype


Leadership Development, Social Networks, Planes


Now version it and extend partners


“I love it when a plan comes together”


Open is better than closed


Open data = new opportunities

Leverage the cloud and community


Open innovation is allowing external parties to participate in your Innovation System

Ask the community … also borrow these ideas there are some great ones


But why?

• It’s the culture

• The greater good; the bigger picture

• Kudos

• Because they can

• They can make it better, they want it better

• It’s fun

• $$$

• Careers


Security and Risk

• Be pragmatic about what the risks are

• Provide strong security where appropriate

• “Do you have better security than Google and Amazon?”

• Start with something low risk to prove the model


So what are the rules?

• Open

• Speed

• Low cost of deployment

• Pilots and Prototypes

• Leverage what is out there
