In a recent interview, Tom O'Hara, the managing director of TSG in Scotland, says that IT is a "huge factor in the productivity of modern business."
"If your IT platform is 50% efficient," he says, "then you are wasting 50% of your wages every day."
Mr O'Hara states that a "top quality website" is one of the most essential factors in making, and keeping, a business profitable.
He laments that some business leaders are "slow to upgrade" in their use of technology, and warns of detrimental effects in the market place.
