Business goals in a digital world

                        40% of CEOs see growth of the
                         business as their top priority
                CEOs expect digital revenue to grow
               10.3% per year between 2017 and 2020

               The business wants to:
                  • Drive business-led innovation
                  • Respond faster to changing business
                    demands
                  • Align to common goals and
                    objectives
                  • Protect the business

  Choose urgent jobs and jobs on critical path before all other jobs, distribute non-critical
  workload in a time range without exceeding the latest start time with its variance.

➢ DEFINE A GLOBAL MAXIMUM SUBMISSION RATE
  Can be applied to jobs that are not on critical path and not urgent workload.
