It is clear that the primary driver of the Information Age transformation is the integration of historically disparate concepts and approaches into an interrelated environment that offers more value than the sum of its parts. Riordan Corporation must provide its customers, sales associates and entire organization with the environment, experiences and skills for success in a transformed economy and culture. Information Technology planning and management have moved from an independent tactical activity to an essential part of Riordan's strategic processes.
