!!!The Organizations Dilemma
Well if all the other parties we have met find [Identity and Access Management] to be an easy sell, why is the [Organizational Entity] not on board.

There can only be a few reasons:
! Cost
[Identity and Access Management] is not cheap; At least in the short term. 
A [InfoWorld review|http://www.infoworld.com/article/05/10/07/41FEidm_1.html] shows the lowest cost for the software from six competing vendors to be $68,100 as tested for 2,700 user and the highest cost to be $355,000 with the highest ranked vendor to be $105,300.  (in [2007|Year 2007])

! [Complexity]
As [Identity and Access Management] usually involves several different technologies and crosses multiple platforms and or applications, there is an inherent [complexity] of integration of the [resources].

! [Politics]
As nothing else, [Identity and Access Management] requires cooperation with nearly all elements of an [Organizational Entity]. Have you ever tried to get the [Solaris] and the [Microsoft Windows] groups to agree on anything?

! [Policies|Policy]
Many organizations we have worked with, even very large organizations do not have concrete policies to perform the [Identity and Access Management] activities. When we say concrete, well just say that no one person can define nor is there written documentation how [Digital Subjects] are provisioned, managed and de-provisioned throughout the organization.

Now we are sure your organization is not in this scenario; but that is what we have encountered with some organizations.

[Identity Management] requires more time to deal with the politics of the organization than most other projects.
