Top 10 Excuses for not automating decisions

Over on my other blog I posted some notes on the top 10 excuses given for not adopting business rules and other decision automation technologies:

• 10. We tried before and never got any results
• 9. I would like to invest in business rules and decision management but my manager just doesn't get it
• 8. We're doing fine as we are; why fix what isn't broken?
• 7. Why do I need more technology to handle business logic?
• 6. My new operational system will do that
• 5. I can’t afford it
• 4. It will never work
• 3. It will take too long to get results
• 2. Business users wouldn't know what to do with decision automation if they had it

and the number one reason...

• 1. You want to let my business users do what?

Enjoy.
