Description
About the series: Aimed at both senior managers and consultants, The Management Consultancies Association series provides practical and comprehensive guides that describe how key management ideas can be applied in reality. About the book: Systems integration is now more critical than ever in creating competitive advantage. Yet many wrongly assume that this is a technology issue. Successful systems integration is a single, continuous process combining business, people and technology issues in equal measure. Authors Trevor Elliott and Dave Herbert of Cap Gemini Ernst & Young provide practical advice on achieving this amid the market pressures of today.
