Abstract
Several wire-less technologies and devices are in use through out the IT industry currently. An analysis of features of such devices and services is done here. Most of them are used for handling unexpected situations (crisis management) and are not well integrated with the IT project or operations management A temporal analysis of Information Technology (11) processes (projects and operations) in a sector of financial industry in the United States reveals that at least some time delays in IT projects can be eliminated or reduced by effective use of latest digital wire-less technologies in an integrated manner. Further, the author proposes framework for deploying digital wire-less communication devices as an integral part of fast paced IT. A survey of several IT project managers and other decision makers also reveals that use of such technologies when planned, communicated and executed well can bring about considerable competitive advantages.
