Enterprise Integration analysis and planning
ESS helped one of the largest US E&U companies to make the business case for integration.
This E&U giant was looking for a consultant that could analyze, research and document
business case for Integration, Employee Portal and Identity Management. ESS successfully
made the three business cases. For the Integration business case the deliverables
included:
A comprehensive business case for
integration
A complete five-year integration road
map
A detailed estimate of the implementation
effort required.
Business process integration
ESS provided integration services to one of the world's largest re-insurance corporations
for integrating and enhancing the premiums and claims processes. The organization
wanted to simplify and automate premium and claim receipt and processing as well
as the booking of these transactions by legacy systems.
Web portal and back-office integration
For a leading European automobile manufacturer, ESS streamlined the delivery process
by integrating dealers, distribution depots and sales and marketing staff. ESS developed
a Web portal for dealers, depot personnel and sales and marketing staff, integrated
with the company's BaaN-based inventory and sales systems.
B2B integration
ESS helped a global electronics and telecom industry leader having a huge number
of sales, service and distribution centers, automate its claims processing for product
under warranties in the Asia-pacific region. Complete automation was achieved between
the parent organization and the outsource manufacturer using Webmethods B2Bi and
