What does Infrastructure and Operations (I&O) currently struggle with the most at your organization?

Communication is the most crucial part of any process.

I&O has always been in a tricky position: on one hand, it is the poster-child for centralizing IT expertise and industrializing IT processes, implemeting ITSM tools, ITL processes and the like, which make things somewhat deterministic and measurable, but also very rigid and often quite slow. But that is what top management has been driving for years, so it's not I&O's fault.
On the other hand, they are expected to adapt to an ever-widening set of technologies, making them available quickly *and* securely, with limited overhead from a cost perspective, very quick time to market, self-service options... all the while handling all the myriad crises we face today (Covid, Russia, what have you...), and with typically little or no input from business on what I&O is supposed to do, other than be cheap. I salute I&O managers who make all this work...
