The most recent trend in business is the use of
integrated solutions.
One integrated solution is a set of applications
that work with a central database shared by different departments of the
company. The database must be accessible locally or remotely by employees
of the company and even for the customers and suppliers on a partial and
secure form (example: CRM solutions or Electronic Commerce on-line).
For example, for a wholesale trading company, we need
the following applications to build the integrated solution:
a)
Application
of Business Management, Warehouse and Treasury. (Sales, Collections,
Purchasing, Payment, CRM, Warehouse and Logistics). Optional Electronic
Commerce.
b)
Application
of Accounting and Finance. Budgets and Financial Analysis of Cost and
Production Centres.
c)
Application
of Personnel Management and Human Resources. (Payroll, Social Security,
etc). Optional Presence Control.
d)
Email
Centralized Solution.
For the efficiency of the solution, it is imperative
that there is interconnection between the databases of these applications
and not duplicated files with the same or similar information. For example,
the accounting files, must be accessible from the Commercial Management or
from the Payroll Application, within the customers management must be
accessible the emails associated with them.
The Applications of Accounting, Human Resource Management
and E-mail, usually are standard and applicable to any type of companies
within a country or region.
The Business Management applications are totally dependent on the sector of activity
and even at 95% of the cases are different depending on the particularities
of each company of similar sectors. It has nothing to do a budget or
invoice of a cars company with a textile company, even more, an automotive
company that sells motorcycles operate differently from one that sells
cars.
This justifies that we have Management Solutions for various sectors of commercial activity.
However, the availability of these applications is not sufficient because
it will always be necessary to adjust to the peculiarities of the end
customers. What if our "cars company" is for sell and lease
vehicles or machinery?
In short, to provide integrated solutions to end
customers, is essential to have a development team of highly specialized
and competitive and development tools to do their labor so optimized and
profitable as possible. This is a real challenge because creating
customized solutions is a work of complex engineering.
The end customer has to understand that the engineering work
is expensive. No we are offering you a "small software solution"
to resolve billing or part of their problem but a global and definitive
solution for its management that will undoubtedly result in its own
expansion and profit in the future.
“gsBase is an ideal tool for creating and
implementing integrated solutions for companies”.
