Rethinking Integration Decisions To Support Your Customer Requirements
The difficulty in integrating customer-facing software is but a symptom of a much larger problem: software design.
The real problem is that packaged applications have been designed from the inside-out, focusing on internal process improvement and neglecting the reason that all companies are in business in the first place: to fulfill customer needs. A new plan is needed for the IT architecture of the future.
Insurers Optimistic About 5 year Prospects
At the inaugural ABI Conference, held on 10th April 2003, research was published from a survey of UK Life and General Insurers as part of the ABI Insurance Issues Index. Carried out between 4th and 14th March 2003 it highlighted that 68% of CEOs view prospects for the sector positively or very positively over the next 5 years. However, the majority of CEOs (91%) did not believe Sandler-style savings products with a price cap will close the UK's annual savings gap of £27bn.
