Business success today is more difficult than ever. "Changing the way we implement on our business objectives" is the key focus of Irene Dec's presentation. Many business objectives will never be achieved, even after spending millions of dollars.
Senior management’s traditional functional mindset frequently represents one of the most significant barriers to fundamental and lasting change. Arguably, the traditional functional paradigm has done more to impede customer focused, business performance improvement, including the effective deployment of enabling information technology, than almost any other factor.
This presentation will explore the key elements and principles in transforming traditional executive mental models and behaviors to a more effective paradigm based on business process thinking.
With organizations focusing on improving efficiencies and leveraging existing systems, business process management (BPM) is now a top priority. While the concept is not new, the notion of a “process” is broadening. Doculabs considers a process to be any business function or set of functions that includes the interaction of people and systems – potentially large numbers of distributed people and disparate systems – where management, coordination, and automation of tasks and decision-making can provide business benefit.
Panelists: Fuego, Fujitsu, Lombardi Software.
Business process management (BPM) entails a variety of disciplines that include the identification, streamlining and integration of horizontal and vertical processes. This panel will explore best practices for business and IT analysts performing BPM across the enterprise and with supply and distribution chain partners. This will include the analysis, improvement and automation of business processes.
As the complexity and sophistication of technology continues to grow, enterprises are realizing that status quo architecture and management is not sufficient. Enterprises today are becoming more outward facing and users expectations increase daily in line with the pressure on IT to deliver quality services and maintain these at peak levels while reducing costs.
The solution to this problem is contained within the following architecture practices:
- Server Consolidation
- I.T.
The former CIO of New Mexico tells how the state implemented a new architecture to integrate the many disparate applications and deliver an executive dashboard and budgeting solution that can be easily used because components of the new architecture use widely accepted web services standards.
This presentation will focus on the Business Process Centric company – a company organized, structured, measured, and managed in terms of business processes – and will review current best practices and near-future options that offer promise. We will consider the challenges managers face and the options they might consider when implementing a BP change initiative.
This presentation will cover BPM not as a technology but as a concept and a philosophy to enable businesses to become more agile and nimble. We will be looking at BPM as the design of business processes, implementation of business processes and the continuous monitoring of business processes.
As the world's leading IT solution provider, HP needed a cost-effective solution for allowing customers to pay for services and solutions online. To address this need, HP created a web-based Global Financial Gateway that is utilized by both customers and internal HP employees. The Financial Gateway allows HP to validate/assign credit to customers, enables customers to choose between several payment methodologies and screens for fraud on payment authorizations. The Financial Gateway was built using .Net technology and is integrated into HP's eBusiness infrastructure via web services.
