Team With Business Management to Drive Out IT Cost
J. Dowling 7/25/2002 12:00:00 AM
IT complexity drives cost and to a great extent, it is business management that drives IT complexity. Until IT architecture and infrastructure are simplified and configured into an adaptable platform, system design and construction will be fraught with wasteful work and non-essential components.

Can 'Intuitive' And 'ERP' Words Be Associated?
P.J. Jakovljevic 7/18/2002 12:00:00 AM
While Intuitive Manufacturing Systems, still largely a stealth small ERP provider, may have the ‘Intuitive ERP’ trump to attract SMEs internationally, a bevy of competitors has also been engaged in delivering their panaceas to the increasingly crowding market segment.

Yantra - Leader in Distributed Order Management, But Wait There’s More
Olin Thompson,PJ Jakovljevic 7/17/2002 12:00:00 AM
Yantra appears to be ahead of the pack in applications for distributed order processing and related needs, but it is far from a household name. For Yantra to progress to the position in the market justified by its product offerings, marketing gaps need to be addressed.

Intentia Braces For Its Ongoing Roller-Coaster Ride Part 2: Challenges and User Recommendations
P.J. Jakovljevic 7/16/2002 12:00:00 AM
To continue to expand beyond its European roots and succeed in other markets, Intentia must continue to focus on marketing and sales, both direct and indirect, engaging a number of resellers and executing an aggressive, enticing marketing program, although not at the expense of profit margins.

Intentia Braces For Its Ongoing Roller-Coaster Ride Part 1
P.J. Jakovljevic 7/15/2002 12:00:00 AM
Intentia remains solid, with a broad product portfolio footprint and a slight increase in revenue, despite vacillating financial results. The company still needs to do a much better marketing job to achieve stronger global brand recognition well beyond its esoteric industries/geographies stronghold pockets, as one would expect from a company with such an offering.

The 'Joy' Of Enterprise Systems Implementations Part 2: Implementation Key Success Factors
P.J. Jakovljevic 7/9/2002 12:00:00 AM
Enterprise systems, in fact, are devised to operate by codifying a set of business processes and employees have to learn the whys, wheres, and whos of the business process (workflows) rather than hows of the software screens.

The 'Joy' Of Enterprise Systems Implementations Part 1: Inexorable Statistics
P.J. Jakovljevic 7/8/2002 12:00:00 AM
We take the liberty to expand further on the findings of a report, which was recently released by a renowned research organization, and which pinpoints enterprise applications implementations’ dissatisfactions in no uncertain terms.

Fast-path Implementations - Are They Good or Bad?
Olin Thompson,P.J. Jakovljevic 7/5/2002 12:00:00 AM
Over the last few years the market has seen a plethora of fixed-scope and fixed-price applications, pre-packaged vertical solutions with industry templates, limited education and training, implementation tools, attractive support programs and hosting services with catchy names, all aimed at making it faster, simpler and cheaper for enterprises well under $500 million to use them.
