One of the many consequences of the COVID-19 crisis has been difficulty in continuing to enroll and run clinical trials, which typically involve large numbers of people interacting in multiple geographies. In this Executive Update, we highlight a new, risk-based predictive analytical approach, powered by machine learning.

How can mHealth support the new challenges and opportunities of telehealth? In this issue of Cutter Business Technology Journal, we present some stimulating articles that illustrate the impact now, and the future direction, of mHealth.

How many resilience-rooted architecture principles have you defined and how many of them are honored in your everyday systems development work? The EA practice should evolve with the aim to be more understandable to users, not more complex.

Businesses have traditionally organized themselves to ensure optimal effectiveness in each of their business functions. In today’s business climate, however, shorter product lifecycles, demand for customization, rising consumer expectations, and the growth of automation and data challenge this model. This Executive Update explains how success requires organizations to decouple capabilities from business functions in order to deliver best-in-class performance and enable the “company of tomorrow.”

Intelligent process automation continues to generate a lot of interest. And today, IPA is touted as an important technology offering potential benefits for almost every industry. But just how do end-user organizations feel about the prospects for IPA to live up to its expectations?

In this Executive Update, we explore how enterprises can leverage today’s low-code/no-code (LC/NC) solu­tions — declarative development options with relatively low learning curves that provide a company’s workforce with the tools needed to easily create software to grow and transform the business.

So what is beyond the frameworks? Has Agile itself “pivoted without remorse?” Discuss, with Jon Ward, the importance of frameworks in achieving enterprise agility.

Part I of this Executive Update series on intelligent process automation (IPA) in the enterprise looks at the current and future status of IPA in the organization.

Business acumen requires insight about the concentric circles of the company, its industry, and broader markets to wisely consider strategy, risk, financial standing, and performance aims in all decisions. Such thinking is not possible, nor is innovation, without a fundamental understanding of a firm’s value chain, its competitive advantage, and business dynamics. Essential to such acumen is the ability to transform increasingly costless and abundant data into information that is actionable for meaningful decisions.

In my analysis, attention to mistakenly followed presumed processes, which ignore inadequate requirements and resulting insufficient budgets/schedules, causes typical risk analyses to miss almost certain repeated budget and schedule overruns. Once you become conscious that the real processes producing your results can differ from what you have been accustomed to presuming, your mind opens to allow awareness of all sorts of previously overlooked risks.

In this Advisor, we look at some of the concerns that organizations believe are hindering their customer experience adoption and implementation plans.

An organization’s business architecture represents the entire scope of what the organization does and the ecosystem in which it operates — at a high level of detail. This makes business architecture uniquely qualified to facilitate collaboration across silos and break them down when appropriate — something that almost no other disciplines or techniques can do. This Advisor shares some examples of why business architecture is so valuable for working across silos.

If the familiar VPNs are not up to the task of supporting the sudden new generation of WFH users, what’s the alternative? Fortunately, there’s a class of products designed specifically for today’s needs: cloud-based remote access software.

With a focus on brain health and neuroscience, Sean Lorenz describes how technology is helping us better assess our brain health journeys with remote detection, diagnosis, and treatment tools. Given the issues surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, he explores the urgent need that requires the healthcare system to actively look toward telehealth and RPM.

What’s happening when we’re reaching the right customers and meeting their strategic needs? That question is the opening gambit in an interesting kind of strategy review. In this Executive Update, we offer the design of two types of reviews — the OI-SR and OI-SDR — which together bring alignment and experiment­ation into prominence.

This article moves us up the healthcare value chain by highlighting the impact that COVID-19 has had on clinical trials. Cutter Consortium Senior Consultant Ben van der Schaaf and Pan Xi describe the current state of mHealth along with technology innovations that forward-looking R&D leaders in pharmaceuticals are deploying. Knowing that the current shift will not be temporary, the authors urge healthcare organizations “to adapt and be in the right place at the right time … to prepare for this imminent change.”
