Edwards Deming famously remarked that “in God we trust, but everyone else should bring data.” The firms were chosen in part due to their propensity to be early adopters of technology. Despite this huge outlay, research from Rotman highlights the profoundly mixed returns seen on that investment.

Each time technology advances to allow for collection, storage, and analysis of more data, we have the opportunity to expand the boundaries of the systems that we can analyze and improve. As Dr. Deming would say, “ Without a theory there is no learning.” What is our theory? Theory poses questions that guide analysis.

Edwards Deming, a renowned systems specialist, observed: “Ninety-four percent of problems are caused by the system — 6 percent by the workers.” The importance of technology ownership is significant. The word “system,” especially in connection with innovation, creates a vision of being controlled, constrained and restricted.
