Business Integration
In a world where time is a premium and clients have higher expectations, the need for improving business processes is becoming increasingly important, with integration lying at the heart of the issue. Connecting processes to people, information, suppliers, and customers is a primary concern for many organisations. Having a well defined business integration strategy is crucial and it should aim to create a unified, secure and open IT architecture that supports your business needs, whilst using the most appropriate technologies. Many organisations run the risk of pursuing disjointed strategies that are driven by the technology and do not have well defined outcomes.
This diagram illustrates how technology should be the 'glue', binding processes to important company resources. Choosing the right strategy can depend on many business parameters, including: industry sector, the maturity of your IT architecture and budget available, but the primary driver should always be the business goals.
