Challenges

• Digitalization in organizations advances case-by-case, comprehensive "big picture" missing
• Lack of experts or expertise (in implementation).
  • Placing ICT resources within organizations or outsourcing?
• The operational setting changes fast
• Automatized information production?
• Clinging onto old traditions (paper reports etc.)
• Legislation is often reactive, not proactive
  • data access, utilization, modes of reporting
