I think about this in my workplace. I'm not on the IT side of things, but I do have more of an interest than most. And wow, it seems a mess.

I think the problem lies with all these nifty solutions being implemented, and then suddenly it's someone's job to tie them all together, which they get halfway through doing before they are called off to do some other task... There doesn't seem to be an overall architecture, or a coherent model of how information should flow around the business. I'm guessing you come across this a lot? How does that get solved?

I agree. I've actually written about this.

It gets solved by planning. Actual long term planning that includes the relevant stakeholders. Currently everything is run by and for VCs who only plan in terms of funding rounds and exits.
