Many organizations are making significant investments to standardize or upgrade their core applications in order to simplify business processes, eliminate redundant applications, and minimize the number of instances of applications deployed across the enterprise. Their goal is to build more flexibility into their information architecture, reduce the operational costs, and significantly improve the quality and availability of the data to the business.

While most organizations recognize the need for a core competency in managing and upgrading enterprise applications, very few are successful in meeting the business objectives of simplifying processes and improving information quality. Many go-live dates are met only after significant cost overruns. In many cases, the business users find that their expectations for better, more accurate data is not met and they continue to paste together information to analyze the data in ad-hoc, costly, and time-consuming manual processes.
