Global Delivery Model Needs a Web 2.0 Makeover

Web 2.0 has transformed how global companies conduct business. Web technologies compel enterprises to revisit their business models, streamline processes and cultivate a community of digital consumers.

Significantly, Enterprise 2.0 demands that the Global Delivery Model adapts to the dynamics of emerging web technologies. Our experts discuss the changes to be effected in the Global Delivery Model, in an article at CRM Buyer:
  • Process: A hybrid process model that integrates tracking mechanisms with decentralized project management will enable evangelization in the course of delivery.
  • Technology: Cloud-based architecture, multi-tenancy models, and connectivity between IT applications and social media will ensure scalability.
  • Infrastructure: A blended on-premise and on-demand delivery model will provide an ideal mix of flexibility, security, customization, and control.
  • Resources: Social platforms will enable IT teams to collaborate across vendors, customer support to provide near real-time service, and Human Resources to recruit global talent.
  • Communication: Social media will help seamless collaboration across geographies, enhance knowledge sharing and accelerate innovation.
  • Business model: The confluence of on-premise, on-demand and cloud delivery models will result in a hybrid business model that maximizes benefits.
