EAI Book Features Case Study by
Catena Technologies CEO Randall Duran
14 Aug 2007 - The case study entitled
"Enterprise Integration and Process Improvement", by Catena Technologies
CEO, Randall Duran, is featured as a chapter in the reference book,
"Enterprise Architecture and Integration - Methods, Implementation and
Technologies", by Wing Lam and Venky Shankararaman. The chapter examines
common Enterprise Integration (EI) challenges and discusses approaches for
combining EI and process improvement effectively to maximize
benefits.
Abstract of the chapter:
Enterprise integration (EI) can be a major
enabler for business process improvement, but it presents its own
challenges. Based on the process improvement experiences of banks in
several different countries, this chapter examines common EI challenges and
outlines approaches for combining EI and process improvement to achieve
maximum benefit. Common EI-related process improvement challenges are poor
usability within the user desktop environment, a lack of network-based
services, and data collection and management limitations. How EI affects
each of these areas is addressed, highlighting specific examples of how
these issues present themselves in system environments. The latter part of
this chapter outlines best practices for combining EI with process
improvement in relation to the challenges identified. Guidelines are
provided on how to apply these practices in different organizational
contexts.
