Export world champion yet again! Over the course of 2006, Germany’s economy once again recorded growth of 2.6 %! Medium-sized, small and micro businesses played a huge role in this achievement. However, only half of these companies currently use professional business software to increase their effectiveness and competitiveness. How much better could Germany’s small and medium-sized companies perform if they were all able to benefit from the services of business software.
Until now, many small and medium-sized companies have been denied access to company management software: too expensive to run, too complex to set up, excessive investment costs tied up. But as of now, the use of business software should be not only affordable, but also worthwhile for all small, micro and medium-sized companies.
How the “on-demand” principle changes a company.
Companies are switching over to “on-demand”. More and more resources are being used specifically to meet exact requirements. Businesses that have already made good progress on becoming on-demand companies will produce better business results than other companies in their sectors.
Software as a service – for all those who could never afford business software before.
The on-demand principle is aimed precisely at small and medium-sized companies. It supports the natural strengths of these economic units: agility, flexibility and innovation. Especially in the IT division of the company, the consistent application of the principle provides small and medium-sized companies specifically with the power of the large enterprises. Best example: The on-demand software services from myfactory.com. The software service is accessed via the internet, there is no need for investment and ongoing personnel costs in IT. Company management using ERP, PPS or CRM is no longer the privilege of large companies.
And the success begins straight away.
In-depth structural changes to processes can be carried out quickly and smoothly using the on-demand method. Beginning with transformation on a relatively small scale. You can integrate a single department – perhaps customer service – or a whole process. And the success and savings begin straight away. You are using productivity to invest in the next improvement. This means that your company is constantly becoming more integrated and more competitive. Adjusting to this new age actually finances itself. Subscriptions to myfactory.com are the key and the tool for this kind of approach.
"On-Demand" - who is reaping the benefits already.
In theory, every company can benefit from the on-demand principle, and many have been successful in practice too. Manufacturing companies and authorities. Scientists and fashion designers. Universities and airlines. The big companies. The little ones. The newcomers. The blue chip companies. In short, all those who wanted to or had to increase their efficiency, press ahead with innovations and capitalise on opportunities.
