The New Enterprise Defined: Your Holistic Integration Strategy
21.05.12
In a previous article , I wrote that “the definition of enterprise has expanded beyond technology and now means ‘applications, systems and processes that are critical to the survival and growth of the organization.’” Developing a strategy around the process of technology integration is perhaps the most important thing you can do to ensure success in today’s information economy.
Organizations today are seeking to make more efficient use of technology investments, using existing enterprise components to develop new capabilities. Integration connects multiple systems so that they can share meaningful data to improve workflow, customer service and the speed of decision making enterprise-wide.
Done well, integration enables organizations to create a technology backbone that is much greater than the sum of its parts. Point-to-point integration projects have their place, but a holistic integration strategy ensures that you are building a platform that can serve as a true foundation for future growth.
