22%-[Business] Business Strategy, Business Processes, and Business Systems (3 Pages)
by Olin Thompson
Jul 31, 2004
Abstract : Business strategy, a road map telling us how the business plans to be successful, does not guarantee success. Strategy execution requires business processes that do what the strategy calls for--and do it well. In today's automated world, these business processes rely on business systems. Therefore, a direct link exists between the success of business strategy and business systems. Poor systems are a frequent reason for the failure of a business strategy.

Q: What is a Knowledge Base?
A: A Knowledge Base is a repository of information created by
intense research gathering, and organized in a comprehensive
Decision Hierarchy. Our Knowledge Bases are created with the intent
of covering all aspects of the evaluation in question including BI - not just features
and functionality. Storing vendor data in a Decision Hierarchy
allows us to effectively organize business needs and lets the users
focus on their priorities at the level of detail of their choosing.
In addition to an organized view of all aspects in their evaluation
- a Knowledge Base permits the storage of notes, comments, and other
relevant information at each level of the Decision Hierarchy. It
encompasses all of the vendor information, ratings, and is also where
your personalized priorities are stored. We are also building archives
on BI.
In short, we've fashioned a customer-centered decision-making process that has quickly
become the industry standard by making third party analyzed data readily available on
the Internet. IT decision makers and software solution providers alike have grown to
rely on us for our unbiased and accurate assessment of the leading software product's
features and functionalities relative to their needs including BI.
 TEC was coined "the Rolls-Royce of decision support tools" by ZDNet
Q: How different is the TEC Evaluation Center from
other sites with superimposed vendors' data (features/functions)?
A: The main difference is the fact the TEC Evaluation
Center relating to BI uses a combination of extensive vendor analysis
coupled with the powerful analytical capabilities of
eBestMatch™. Vendor data is third party evaluated and is
fully impartial. The depth of analysis goes far beyond
features and functions; it includes elements such
as Corporate Strategy, Flexibility and Viability.
This gives all vendors an equal playing field. When
this data is entered into our Knowledge Base
and viewed through the eBestMatch™ engine, it becomes
an invaluable tool for analysis -“the Rolls
Royce of Decision Analysis Software”(ZDNet).
