]]> Comment on Process Redesign – Do it right or go home. by Mel Haynes http://www.demandforesight.com/2011/10/20/process-redesign-%e2%80%93-do-it-right-or-go-home/#comment-1453 Mel Haynes Tue, 27 Dec 2011 14:18:21 +0000 http://www.demandforesight.com/?p=1506#comment-1453 It's an interesting premise and one that has been discussed as long as I can remember. I think as long as people are living in the gray zone between do something and do nothing, it will persist. There just seems to be a lack of innovation brought about by people not willing to take a chance and go beyond their comfort zone. Change does not come easily to us humans It’s an interesting premise and one that has been discussed as long as I can remember.

]]> Comment on An open letter to the C suite about your integrated IT shop (Pt. 2) by Alex Rivlin http://www.demandforesight.com/2010/01/29/an-open-letter-to-the-c-suite-about-your-integrated-it-shop-pt-2/#comment-1056 Alex Rivlin Sat, 03 Sep 2011 15:32:11 +0000 http://www.demandforesight.com/2010/01/an-open-letter-to-the-c-suite-about-your-integrated-it-shop-pt-2/#comment-1056 Gene, This is a brilliant summary. Unfortunately, many projects are funded and executed based on ease of reporting results (such as we spent $20M and saved 20% of license cost). That is very different mindset than achieving results (such as recognize that we wasted $20M and could have put them into advertizement, R&D, or dividents). Large ERP vendors provide very good tools that certainly have its place in a company. The problem arises when these companies try to cover every aspect of operations of every company in the world forcing the same process. Alex Gene,

I've recently written a blog article on Best of Breed vs Integrated ERP that I would like to share with you. I believe that we have more in agreement than disagreement. What is most important is that a customer focuses their limited resources on the areas that generate competitive advantage. http://gbeaubouef.wordpress.com/2011/04/30/best-of-breed-vs-integrated-erp/ Best Regards Brett Thank you for sharing your expertise.
