At Enerplus, IS works intimately with the rest of the business. By collaborating closely, the company successfully implemented a major overhaul of the IS department — simplifying information systems, getting more out of existing partnerships, reducing cycle times and cutting costs overall. In this session, Robert Waters examines his company’s success and conveys the importance of IS harmony to prepare for acquisitions or other future changes. Enerplus moves away from old schools of thought that see IS as a cost control exercise and instead views it as a profit creation center which directly impacts the bottom line.
