Integration: connecting the dots, keeping track of the whole
Now that all-in-one business suites are being replaced with best-of-breed IT landscapes, solid integration between business applications is more important than ever. A systemic approach based on technical and strategic best practices is paramount to keep track of the whole.
Why integration matters
From managing complexity to unlocking data
In today’s IT landscapes, every business process seems to have its own niche application. However, the processes itself still require multiple internal and external stakeholders to work together.
Integration challenges
As a result, companies are faced with several ‘integration challenges’, including
establishing reliable and secure communication between internal and external systems;
automating business processes across solutions;
preserving the ‘speed of innovation’ when IT needs to focus entirely on keeping things running.
The integration of business applications often flows from an enterprise architecture exercise.. It needs to take several levels of complexity into account:
Technological: on premise, hybrid, or SaaS
Stakeholders: employees, clients, government agencies, subcontractors, partners etc.
A plethora of applications, each with their own protocols.

Why predictive planning is essential in the new normal
The pandemic has changed the rules of the game: how businesses run, how their data and analytics work, and how to identify and react to new risks. Identification of data that is considered reliable for setting and adjusting plans is more important than ever. Certain business outcomes can no longer be predicted or applied with older forecasting methods which puts pressure on businesses to quickly adopt a more agile, data-driven approach.
