One immediate concern raised by senior corporate management is that a total transformation model such as e-business on demand will be prohibitively expensive to introduce. This may be solved a number of ways. For example, e-business on demand outsourcing will no doubt evolve to assist corporations and companies to move to the new business model quickly. It will be possible to outsource a single application, one business unit, or the entire corporation. The e-business on demand outsource organizations will use the e-business on demand model themselves. It makes sense to adopt a model such as e-business on demand. The e-business on demand mantra should be: "Adapt and adopt or don't and die." But very few companies can draw the slate clean and start over. Therefore, they are compelled to begin this new adventure by utilizing their existing infrastructure. E-business on demand allows for this.
Another concern might be business risk. With such a dynamic and changing business model, there is a higher risk of business failure or disruption. In the world, where information flows readily and at constant streams 24/365, the accuracy and integrity of the data must be paramount. Similarly, privacy and security concerns are equally important, and the e-business on demand model can enhance already established, operational procedures.
