Abstract: Unless all the functional modules have access to and use the same data in near real-time, unless all processes are fully integrated (so that, for example a mobile sales rep can see the live inventory data for order promising), and unless users can seamlessly move from one module to another, we are not talking about coherency but rather about the hodgepodge of disconnected (or very loosely connected, in the best scenario) islands of information.

The proposed solution is a new Candle Corporation product with a GUI front-end that can track message flow, queue times, and other metrics.

Abstract: Peru, a country with a glorious past and an uncertain future, stands at the crossroads.
