Modern technology is changing the way in which we communicate. Businesses need to keep abreast of new technologies and understand which are appropriate to their communications needs, and which are inappropriate.
We have a deep understanding of modern communications technology. We were early adopters of both web and wireless technology, and are currently exploring the possibilities of technologies such as Blogging, XML, virtual reality and speech based systems.
But we realise that most businesses are looking for cheap, robust technologies that will deliver real benefit, enable rapid cost savings and deliver significant competitive advantage. We can help you choose and implement the technologies which are right for you.
There are 4 areas of communications technologies which we think can add real value to your business today:
| Wireless | For us, the key technology at the moment is wireless. Whether it is deploying WiFi in your office, or remote access via GPRS, 3G, or broadband, wireless lets you communicate more often with your employees, your market and your customers.
|
| Content & Knowledge Management | Managing content and knowledge is increasingly a key communications issue. Rather than deploy expensive monolithic knowledge systems we encourage companies to look at web based solutions, such as Blogs and Wikis. We are also interested in how we organise knowledge with tools such as ontologies, topic maps and XTM.
|
| XML, Agents & M2M | XML is becoming a vital tool in machine to machine (M2M) communications. Use XML and XML based approaches such as REST, SOAP and RSS to pass data to partners, or use your partners' applications. |
| Voice | We think that voice technology has finally come of age. Use it to enhance your web site, or to provide remote access to web information for telephone users. Add in a virtual agent and you have a life-like virtual assistant. |
"IT Strategy" has to be one of the most abused phrases in the business world. The pace of change of technology is such that few of the declared strategies will last for long, particularly when they focus around technologies rather than management approaches, and fail to relate to business strategy.
We can help you step back from the detail of Windows vs Linux or .NET vs Java to consider the bigger issues of IT Governance and Strategic Alignment. We can use our models and meta-models to help you understand the different types of IT that you need - and the different approaches that can be applied to each. We can even use tools such as strategy map to develop a clear link between business needs and supporting IT systems.
