Integration success stories
Two Groundswell projects, outlined just below, reflect our expertise in systems integration, our commitment to results and our belief in mentoring clients to enhance their internal capabilities.
Success story: national sporting goods retailer
In 2005, Canada’s largest national sporting goods retailer selected TIBCO as their enterprise integration platform. With no formal integration strategy in place, and no experience with a structured EAI toolset, this client was very much a ‘green field’ for integration. Through 2005 and 2006, we designed, developed and implemented a major integration project between the product management and warehouse management applications. Building on this success, we then provided a framework to incorporate real-time product information into the firm’s newly redeveloped web sites. With a robust integration hardware and software environment established, a solid integration architecture put in place and a successful mentoring process completed, this company is now enjoying the operational and financial benefits of integration.
Success story: oil and gas firm
In 2003, an oil and gas firm selected TIBCO as the enterprise integration platform, with the firm’s consulting partners developing and deploying two integration solutions. In 2005, Groundswell was engaged to assess the state of their EAI service offering. We identified significant gaps in the company’s EAI offering and recommended and provided support and improvements. Once the technical side was in good shape, we observed a number of business barriers still remaining. To address these, we marketed the services of the firm’s EAI Centre of Excellence to all its business units. This resulted in the development and deployment of over 20 production integration solutions, which we support to this day. Overall costs are now 30% less than in 2003, despite a several-fold production increase.
