Globalization, merger and acquisitions and the drive for greater efficiencies are putting increased pressure on organizations to use their IT systems to achieve high performance. To address the complexity of aligning and integrating IT systems to support business imperatives, we believe that a technology architecture foundation is more critical than ever. Accenture applies innovative approaches to using new and proven technologies to design solutions that enable transformational change. It is leading the way in emerging technological architectures such as: Business Process Management (BPM) | Cloud Computing | Mobile Solutions | Open Source Solutions | Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) | Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) | Software as a Service (SaaS) | Web 2.0/Rich Internet Applications Business Process Management (BPM)
Today’s competitive global business environment requires organizations to create new business processes rapidly to meet changing customer demands, with fluid business models to match. To achieve the necessary flexibility, business processes must become uncoupled from technology. Together, business process management and service-oriented architecture deliver true business transformation for high performance. Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is becoming a real alternative for companies and governments needing to provide better services while reducing costs. Accenture leverages its High Performance Business research and the extensive experience in commercializing new technologies of Accenture Technology Labs to outline the opportunities and challenges. Mobile Solutions
Accenture's Mobile Solutions group helps clients to leverage business applications based on mobile technologies that enable high performance. We have extensive experience in implementing innovative solutions across a wide range of industries and business functions.
To Top Open Source Solutions
Open source is becoming an increasingly important part of the IT mix for organizations in pursuit of high performance. In a business environment where cost and speed to market are both critical factors, open source software can play a key role in helping organizations develop the capabilities they need to achieve high performance quickly and at reduced cost. Accenture is a leader in helping organizations apply open source across the enterprise. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)
Silent Commerce uses tagging and tracking technologies such as radio frequency identification to make everyday objects intelligent and interactive. When combined with continuous Internet connectivity, a new infrastructure for collecting data and delivering services is possible without human interaction. Investment in technology innovation including Silent Commerce is key to driving growth and enhancing business performance. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)
Service-oriented architecture is a strategic enabler to help drive business results. From defining and implementing SOA governance to building effective business process-centric IT, Accenture offers a comprehensive approach to help your organization use SOA to achieve high performance.
To Top Software as a Service (SaaS)
In today’s highly competitive business environment, business and IT leaders are faced with the challenge of improving and sustaining performance, while generating the most from both old and new IT investments. Software as a service—a way to subscribe to software on-demand—can help organizations achieve these goals with faster application deployment, the flexibility to scale technical capacity up or down, lower IT costs and accelerate ROI. As a leader in applying SaaS to achieve measurable business results, Accenture is helping organizations realize the benefits of SaaS. Web 2.0/Rich Internet Applications
Innovative companies understand the strategic value of combining SOA with Web 2.0 to boost productivity through collaboration and deliver more user-friendly applications. Accenture can help you understand how rich Internet content, social networking and mashups (to name a few) are changing how society works—and how your business can take advantage of these powerful tools.
