Successes of Multi-Enterprise Integration
Hubspan Presents: “Benefits of Straight-Through Integration”
Integration-as-a-Service Leader to Discuss Real-World Successes of Multi-Enterprise Integration
Seattle, WA – December 5, 2006 – Most organizations have successfully integrated business applications within their four walls. Many now are grappling with how to extend an integration framework to both trading partners and customers in a way that not only shares information, but also powers multi-enterprise transactions.
In the webinar “The Benefits of Straight-Through IntegrationT,” Trisha Gross and Tim Ratliff will discuss how industry leaders are seeing tangible business results through the strategic use of Hubspan’s innovative Integration-as-a-Service (IaaS). Examples will include successes in customer-facing integration, as well as B2B consolidation. Attendees will learn how companies have overcome obstacles to integration, grown top-line revenue as much as 25%, dramatically improved customer service, and achieved competitive differentiation.
At the core of Hubspan’s IaaS is Straight-Through IntegrationT (STI) which is a set of technologies that structures information so that it can be readily used by customers’ and trading partners’ business applications. STI transcends mere data translation and transport to enable data aggregation and choreography of complete, multi-enterprise transactions. The result is that companies can easily connect with other organizations at the business process level-without forcing trading partners to change normal procedures or technology infrastructures.
