Today?s workforce is mobile. Whether the media calls it the Consumerisation of IT (CoIT) or the new computing era, employees are using mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, to get work done. We?ve just scratched the surface of the mobile revolution. Businesses that embrace mobile will improve sales and service, reshape business models, and create sustainable competitive advantage. However, a business can?t mobilise the entire organisation overnight. Building a mobile-enabled enterprise requires more than putting devices in the hands of employees. CIOs must offer access to the workflows and applications that employees need on both personal and corporate-owned devices. Business must also adapt these workflows to operate in a mobile environment. As a result of this complexity, SAP sees companies adopting mobile in a phased approach. While each organisation is different, companies generally embrace mobility in three phases: extend, accelerate and transform.
