e-Business technology is becoming a fully integrated component of today's business environment. In order to maintain (or gain) a competitive advantage, companies work with LDS to define a business model that fully exploits the power of e-business technology. These business models include the organization's relationships with customers, partners, and employees and the associated processes, structures, and procedures that manage these relationships.
Our strategic e-Enablement and Business Transformation is a structured methodology, set of best practices, and analytical techniques that define the "to-be," or future, state of the business and the programs needed to migrate to the to the new state. The new state is based on the business objectives of the organization and the capabilities of e-business technology.
Anchored in an explicit understanding of the client's strategic business objectives, priorities, and industry best practices, LDS leverages an analytical, collaborative, and iterative process to define the e-enabled transformation. Deliverables from the e-enabled transformation best practices focus on: 1) defining the future state, 2) migrating from the current state to the future state, and 3) continuously improving the future state. Output includes:
- Definition of the Future State:
- Vision for the e-enabled business model and e-business solution that is aligned with the overall business strategy
- e-Enabled business processes (process based on e-business vision capabilities)
- Integration approach
- Organizational design enabled or required by the Web or portal solution
- Governance model to maintain portal solutions roles, responsibilities, policies and procedures
- Key measures of success.
- Migration to the Future State:
- Readiness assessment
- Change management programs to assist a user in the migration to the new environment including communications and training support and materials
- An overall migration schedule for migration to the future state
- Adoption management program (see below).

- Continuous Improvement and Assessment Programs:
- Ongoing assessment of the e-business environment and recommendations for improvements
- Strategic assessment of the vision and migration plan and recommended adjustments.
These deliverables, combined with defined e-business solutions, represent a holistic view of the new environment and a specific plan to migrate to that environment. By focusing on the specific solution as well as the broader cultural, organizational, process components of your business, your corporation will achieve its goals and realize the benefits of an e-Enabled Business Transformation.
