Your business is changing — fast!
The Internet has sped up our world and created new customer expectations for how they interrelate with companies:
- The nature of company-customer interactions and the pace at which they have evolved has spawned necessary changes to underlying business processes
- New communications processes - email, chat, IM, blogs, wireless devices, and text messaging - are changing how customers express their preferences and requirements
- New retail channels and purchasing processes have emerged, such as E-commerce and retail kiosks
- Speech applications and voice recognition capabilities have changed how customers express themselves using voice tools such as interactive voice response (IVR), digital recording, and speech to text
Global social, economic, technological, and business developments have necessitated further changes to how companies operate:
- Online sharing of personal and financial information has forced new privacy policies and practices
- Security processes, such as firewalls, spam filters, and virus detection, are now needed to keep corporate systems operating smoothly
- New operations processes have been made possible through new technologies, such as real time monitoring of manufacturing process, supply chain, energy production, logistics, and distribution channels
- Increased visibility of various forms of corporate risk now require added safeguards, analysis and reporting capabilities
New business processes have spawned new sources of information
These new and evolved business processes are creating vast amounts of new information about customer and marketplace preferences, decisions, and behaviors that could significantly help business managers be more successful – if only they had a way of tapping into it. But, this new information typically is unstructured or extensible data that cannot be understood by existing data analysis software, including existing business intelligence and business performance management solutions.
