Issue Adaptability depends on being able to shift the investment balance quickly

Summary

KPMG identifies the allocation of investment as a key ingredient of adaptability amid disruption. Organizations need to strike the right balance across their entire technology portfolio. Equally important, the report argues, is being ready to shift that balance swiftly when circumstances change. Its survey shows budgets currently spread fairly evenly across maintenance, incremental growth, and transformation, while high performers tilt more toward growth. The point is that adaptability depends less on a perfect initial mix than on the capacity to rebalance quickly.
