Navigating the IT sea

Prioritizing your IT budget is like planning a trip with many intermediate stops. Your goal is not only to get to your destination, but also to meet all your business objectives along the way while maximizing your return.

Put your navigational skills to the test in the maze below. Your objective is to plot a course from START to END that allows you to collect the money in the maze. Your path may not cross itself or go through any square more than once. There is only one solution.

Hint: As in a real-life journey, this maze is harder to solve if you plan as you go along. Instead, make a plan before you begin. Look for segments of the journey that must follow a particular path, then join the paths together to make longer paths. Eventually, the path will be clear.
