How does your company become an e-business? How can becoming
an e-business help you maximize the value of your information
technology investment? How can it help you reduce your costs
and grow your revenue? There are four important areas or stages
in this process. We think of these four stages collectively
as, e-business cycle. They are:
- Transforming core business processes
- Building flexible, expandable ebusiness applications
- Running a scalable, available, safe environment
- Leveraging knowledge and information you have gained through
ebusiness systems
There is not a set order or hierarchy to this cycle. Successful,
e-businesses start at different points, and you can too. But
first, you must identify which of your core business processes
are most suitable for, or most in need of conversion to e-business.
