Information threads pervade the entire corporate organisation and it is clear that mastery of appropriate and efficient distribution technologies brings the key competitive edge. The Information Challenge questions how such information is to be accessed, distributed and controlled, and the response leads to a statement of a corporate Information Strategy.<BR><BR> This NET-TEL White Paper is divided into the following sections: <ul compact type="circle"> <li><A HREF="/frames/need.shtml" TARGET="_top">The need for an Information Strategy</A><BR> <li><A HREF="/frames/market.shtml" TARGET="_top">Market Forces</A><BR> <li><A HREF="/frames/vision.shtml" TARGET="_top">The NET-TEL Vision</A><BR> <li><A HREF="/frames/map.shtml" TARGET="_top">NET-TEL's Product Road Map</A><BR> <li><A HREF="/frames/response.shtml" TARGET="_top">The NET-TEL Response to the Information Challenge</A><BR> <li><A HREF="/frames/appendix.shtml" TARGET="_top">Appendix 1: Available technologies, their application and challenges</A> </ul> <TABLE BORDER=0 CELLPADDING=0 CELLSPACING=0> <TR> <TD VALIGN=MIDDLE> <font face="arial,helvetica"><font size=-1> The White Paper is also available as a self-extracting zipped <a href="/strategy/strategy.exe">Microsoft Word file</a> (170K) or as an <A HREF="/strategy/strategy.pdf">Adobe Acrobat PDF file</A> (480K). </font> </TD> <TD VALIGN=MIDDLE> <A HREF="http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep.html" TARGET="_blank"> <IMG SRC="/images/getacro.gif" WIDTH="88" HEIGHT="31" ALT="Get Acrobat Reader" BORDER="0"></A> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> <BR> The White Paper first outlines the need for a new approach to corporate Information Strategies, addressing the many different information needs and requirements. Within this discussion, it is necessary to consider the characteristics and implications of the available information technologies and the market forces that currently act as a background. The strategy also needs to complement present infrastructure requirements, such as the adoption of a Microsoft Desktop and planned usage of international, industry and de facto standards within the organisation.<BR><BR> Having set the scene, we describe the NET-TEL approach, based on an Information Product Set, providing for a uniquely high level of integration between NET-TEL's core messaging product development expertise and best of breed information delivery and collaborative products. Specifically, NET-TEL brings the best standards-based information transport technology into play, allowing an organisation to commit full reliance to the technology for its mission critical operations. Of particular note within our solution is the ability of an organisation to choose to adopt solutions from a range of vendors, bringing integration through the use of NET-TEL server and client products.<BR><BR> Alongside the technology solution, there is another factor: NET-TEL, a consistently profitable and growing company that has been in existence since 1982 and stands by its reputation for product excellence, customer care and long-term evolution and support.<BR><A NAME="strategy"> </A></font> <BR><BR> <A HREF="/frames/need.shtml" TARGET="_top">Forward to Part 1: The need for an Information Strategy</A> </td> </tr> <TR> <TD COLSPAN=3 ALIGN=CENTER> <IMG SRC="/images/bot01.gif" WIDTH=481 HEIGHT=48 BORDER=0 ALT=""><BR><BR> </TD> </TR> <TR> <TD VALIGN=CENTER> <A HREF="/index.html" TARGET="_top" onMouseOver="window.status = 'NET-TEL Home'; return true;" onMouseOut="window.status = '';"><IMG SRC="/images/home.gif" BORDER=0 WIDTH=75 HEIGHT=16 ALT="NET-TEL Home"></A> </TD> <TD VALIGN=CENTER ALIGN=CENTER> <font face="arial,helvetica"><font size=-2> <A HREF="/copyright.shtml" onMouseOver="window.status = 'Copyright Information'; return true;" onMouseOut="window.status = '';">Copyright © 1998-2007 NET-TEL Computer Systems Ltd</A> </TD> <TD WIDTH=75> </TD> </TR> </table> </BODY>
