Application Platform

Businesses are moving from static customer e-commerce sites that dynamically deliver self-service capabilities and real-time information. Legacy budget and expense applications that rely on spreadsheets and e-mail are being replaced with powerful, easy-to-use applications that are integrated into internal Web portals or Microsoft Outlook accounts. In this new paradigm there is no single application that companies use to manage all parts of their business. The key is to dynamically link the many systems that run business operations, including service orientation and integrated business process management, to deliver the right information to the right people, at the right time.
