One of the most vital and integral parts of company’s business plan is the information technology; IT plays a crucial role in all sizes of business. In this regard technology management as a management discipline enables the organization to manage their technology and create a competitive advantage, especially in healthcare. The role played by the technology in an organization is to help comprehend the value of certain technology in the organization. So long as the value is being added to the company then the company should always strive to maintain continuous technology.
Additionally, the management's role in the technology further includes taking the administrative role of mobile device management; this deals with deploying, monitoring, integrating, securing and managing the mobile device. For instance, according to the case study one of the latest technologies being incorporated by organizations today is Smartphone technology (Lu, 2012). This kind of technology without proper monitoring and the management failing to take the administrative role can have negative effects on the company.
Nevertheless, the management can put in place several strategies that are meant to evaluate the smartphone technology effectiveness. This approach would involve comparing the department that utilizes the use of smartphones to those that do not. This will help the management to know whether the use of smartphone technology is effective in the organization. The anticipation here is that the department that uses the smartphone technology yields better performance in the health care administration compared to those that do not. The intention of management taking a role in mobile device management is to optimize the security and functionality of the mobile device that are being used within the organization premises while at the same time offering protection to the corporate network (In Ordóñez, et al. 2015).
The reason smartphone technology should be of concern to any manager is because hackers can use the employee’s smartphone to steal valuable information about the company. Moreover, a smartphone can be used to monitor the movement of a company employee thus the reason the management should take serious the issues of managing the mobile devices. Technology is important to any organization especially in the healthcare management and thus should be handled with caution.
