Event-Driven Business Solutions: Today's Revolution in Business and Information Technology

Tremendous advances in technology, as well as dramatic changes in the marketplace, call for a new order of business among companies preparing to enter the 21st century. The top priority? Challenging traditional processes, structures, performance measurements, and uses of technology that may not accurately reflect the dynamic nature of today's business environment. Companies must embrace a new business philosophy that enables them to continually respond to a constantly changing world - or they won't survive tomorrow's fierce competition for investors, creditors, and customers.
Event-Driven Business Solutions revolutionizes traditional thinking about business functions by introducing a solution-oriented approach that focuses less on processes and more on defining the impact of every business event - and using that information to develop new and better ways to do battle in today's economic world.
From organization stewardships to value/cost measurements, from auditing procedures to risk management methods, Event-Driven Business Solutions shows companies how to break down barriers and implement new techniques that will maximize their potential for developing good business solutions.
Two areas in particular draw specific recommendations from the authors: information systems and accounting. In clear, concise detail, the authors outline how professionals in these areas can merge their skills, moving beyond the simple automation of traditional processes, to experimenting with various new technologies, targeting areas that need special attention, and developing new and exciting solutions that enable their companies to create greater value and return as they move into the future.
Drawing on their combined expertise in the areas of accounting and information systems, authors Denna, Cherrington, Andros, and Hollander present a blueprint for implementing the solution-oriented structure of the future within your organization today.
