What Gartner recommends

A DTO forms a proven design pattern for an enterprise operating model to support the realization of an operationalization strategy.”

Gartner also says, “The Three Domains of DigitalOps” show that organizations combine modelling and monitoring in their DTO to enable ideal execution. This makes what Miele CIO Uwe Herold says all the more exciting…

“There are many good ideas you can get from many consulting companies. But execution is often missing. Bee4IT enables execution.”
