Bring your own computer (BYOC) may not seem quite as attractive as bring your own bottle (BYOB), but could it be the future for IT provisioning? You are at work. Your computer is five years old, runs Windows XP. Your company phone has a tiny screen and doesn’t know what the internet is. Idling at home are a snazzy super-fast laptop, and your own smartphone is barred from accessing work e-mail. There’s a reason for that: IT provisioning is an expensive business. Companies can struggle to keep up with the constant rate of technological change. The devices employees have at home and in their pockets are often far more powerful than those provided for them.
