Where’s your data, and how fast can you get to it?
When a sales rep wants to know if you can ship 500 widgets to a customer tonight, how fast can you access your inventory system and respond?
When your company’s branch offices, operating on different platforms, need to roll up account information to headquarters, how quickly can they do it?
When customers want online access to their account information to track shipments of their orders, can you access the various databases necessary to provide the information and display it for the customer in seconds?
When you want to distribute your new price list company-wide, can your systems support it?
When your management want a full view of your current financial assets or cross-company budgets, can you provide that, instantly?
Your management, internal staff, businesses users, your customers, and your business partners expect to get answers to their questions fast and easily. They expect it now.
The Challenge of Integration
The fact that you have different databases controlled by different applications and operating systems, sitting on a variety of platforms in diverse locations doesn’t change that expectation. If you want to remain competitive, you have to deliver.
There’s a lot at stake—not just protection of your company’s investment in business applications, hardware, and software, but the ability of the company to respond quickly to changing needs and to meet the expectations of both internal and external users. Time to market is critical.
iBOLT™ can help you in quickly and easily automating your business processes and integrating all of your different applications, databases and information to a single and accurate view of your business.
