We are often asked how we define an "Enterprise Information Supply Chain" or the term "Return on Information", so here is the short version. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on this at info@xenos.com.
Enterprise Information Supply Chain™
A series of linked processes by which information is routed across and beyond the enterprise from where it resides to where it is required. These processes include: compose, transform, index, load/ingest, store, assemble, dynamically retrieve, transform on-the-fly, deliver, present and print. A streamlined enterprise information supply chain contains the minimum practicable number of links required to achieve the required result.
Enterprise information supply chains powered by Xenos solutions link applications, operations, staff, customers, and trading partners in ways that produce new actionable information from existing data.
Return on Information™
The value of information to an organization is a function of its accessibility and reusability relative to the cost of acquiring and maintaining it. A superior Return on Information can be achieved when information is acquired and maintained efficiently and reused and repurposed often and effectively.
Green IT: Reduce Reuse Recycle
“An electronic information system is not inherently green. Its relative “greenness” depends on how it is designed and used and what it replaces. We believe that the Xenos Enterprise Server will empower our customers to apply the green mantra “Reduce Reuse Recycle” to information resources and that the benefits will be enormous from both an environmental and business perspective”.
Stuart Butts, Chairman and CEO, Xenos Group
As Green IT moves from the notion of a paperless office into a mainstream corporate social responsibility, CIOs are identifying ways in which to minimize the corporate carbon footprint and at the same time achieve their strategic business objectives. Xenos ES meets business and Green IT objectives by eliminating the constraints imposed by incompatible hardware or software platforms and disparate data and document archives.
Initially conceived as the route to the paperless office, Xenos Enterprise Server takes quantum leaps in rationalizing information management processes while minimizing the enterprise carbon footprint, enabling organizations to achieve critical business objectives including environmental responsibility. It unlocks strategic but disparate information assets held by customers, employees and trading partners in incompatible formats and repurposes them to electronic formats such as XML and PDF for innovative business applications. In addition Xenos ES enables the migration of disparate legacy document and image archives into fewer or a single, more agile archive, significantly reducing the costs associated with duplicate site licenses, maintenance, training and support.
Xenos ES dramatically reduces IDARS/ERM/ECM storage hardware requirements with its techniques for high performance load and retrieval using Xenos ES’ sophisticated document resource optimization.
Xenos ES enables organizations that traditionally print high volumes of customer communications to dramatically lower the consumption of paper and printing supplies by reducing or eliminating the print and physical delivery of customer facing and corporate documents.
