CRESNET & E-BUSINESS

E-business is The transformation of key business processes through the use of Internet technologies.

The Web is changing every aspect of our lives, but no area is undergoing as rapid and significant a change as the way businesses operate. As businesses incorporate Internet technology into their core business processes they start to achieve real business value. Today, companies large and small are using the Web to communicate with their partners, to connect with their back-end data-systems, and to transact commerce. This is e-business -- where the strength and reliability of traditional information technology meet the Internet.

This new Web + IT paradigm merges the standards, simplicity and connectivity of the Internet with the core processes that are the foundation of business. The new killer apps are interactive, transaction intensive, and let people do business in more meaningful ways.

IT'S ABOUT TO CHANGE...

An e-business is a company that can adapt to constant and continual change. To manage transitions smoothly you have to remember two important ideas:

• Start simple, but plan to grow fast
• Build on what you have
• It's about business, not technology

e-business isn't about re-inventing your business. It's about streamlining your current business processes to improve operating efficiencies which in turn will strengthen the value you provide to your customers -- value that cannot be generated by any other means, and value that will give you a serious advantage over your competition.
