User Provisioning - The Business Drivers for creating a comprehensive, centralized and automated provisioning system

The challenges facing IT managers as they go about the task of provisioning new and existing users are numerous and have been well documented here and elsewhere. Using a comprehensive, centralized and automated provisioning system can help solve several of these issues by helping to reduce IT costs, increase IT staff and end user productivity, mitigate risk
and help comply with regulatory and corporate governance standards.

Return on investment can be realized on an accounting basis through cost savings achieved by eliminating or greatly reducing repeatable manual tasks such as password resets and multiple new user adds or deletes. Economic advantages are realized through increased productivity, as users receive access to what they need to accomplish their tasks more easily and more quickly.
