The Next revolution in productivity
Businesses have been reengineering their processes for nearly 20 years. For many companies, knitting together numerous fragmented tasks and data into cross-functional business processes has had a substantial impact in terms of cost savings, cycle-time reductions, and service improvements. However, many companies that embraced the reengineering revolution are now hitting a wall. Fortunately, the means to break through that wall are emerging. Thanks to the development of new technologies for using and sharing functions via the Internet, the frontier is no longer the process but rather the business activities that make up every process - from pricing a product to issuing an invoice to assessing the risk of individual customers to prioritizing the potential features of a new product in development. It is becoming possible to design many business activities as Lego-like software components that can be easily put together and taken apart. What's primarily responsible is service-oriented architecture (SOA). The beauty of SOA is that it allows activities - or processes built from such activities - to be accessed using the now-ubiquitous Internet in a standardized fashion. New ways of constructing software combined with a computer network that can distribute the modules instantaneously anywhere in the world give executives unprecedented tools for building ultra-efficient and flexible operations. The business leaders who are willing to pioneer plug-and-play businesses will fuel the next great leap in corporate productivity.Printed journal
