Back-Office Focus 2005
• Resource management system
– “Evolution” since 1992
– Needs serious streamlining
• i.e. throw out, replace, integrate
• Integration of “ticketing islands”
– Replacement of current system(s) (!)
• Pre-historic PABX to be replaced
– Keep up with technology and jump ahead…
• In short:
Our engineers will be somewhat busy internally
this year…
