Seminar Series
As consultants, we have condensed this information into a series of free non-technical luncheon seminars. It has to do with information exchange and a computer communications standard called XML. Revolutionary or not, simply knowing about it can be of value. We all know businesses run by having good policies and systems for accounting, sales, communications and the rest. Larger companies have been investing in programs that integrate those systems for some time now. While it has been complex and expensive, their incentives include lower operating costs and meeting customer expectations. What we see, is a whole new set of tools and techniques that will give all businesses the ability to streamline their business practices. Within that XML is going to be a big part of it because, it is a major standard that will enable communications between our own numerous programs, the internet and the rest of the world. In a simple example, XML enabled programs like; accounting, sales and email will agree on just one source for customer contact data. In a simple example, XML will enable different departments like accounting, sales and purchasing to agree on just one source for contact data. XML will be the glue that lets these varied programs work as one big information system.
In a more involved internet
world, XML enabled customers might expect to see their invoice or
transaction history. |
