From Experience to Technology

Since nearly 20 years implementing ERPs and improving business processes, we decide to commit ourself in a new approach. Indeed, technology evolutions allow us to propose new kind of services, new methodologies and new approaches.

Data is not only a way to process for internal management but also an added-value feature.

OUR APPROACH

Our vision : application landscape, concept and structure

environment

IT ENVIRONMENT

In order to get a complete vision, information system should be addressed globally. Indeed, even if it is based on applications, it is not possible to recap it only to them.
The component parts for an IT environment are:

Infrastructure: hard/soft,
Database system(s),
Then the applications.

Although application layer is the main objective of our actions, system layers (infrastructure and databases) are taken into account.

System

INFORMATION SYSTEM

The aim of this should be to procure relevant information to a user when he needs it. Therefore, the information has to be correct and directly exploitable. More generally, an information system should permit :

Information centralisation,
Process standardization,
Work focus on analysis and control,
In / out operations control,
Information consolidation,
To assure the information availability,
To secure data.

Lastly: its efficiency and its evolution are based on computing policies and strategies.

Data

DATA MANAGEMENT

Information system conception by IDM Systems is built along 3 axes:

Storage and preservation
Processing
Data exploitation

Storage

STORAGE AND PRESERVATION

Company data represent its history, its knowledge database, a part of its knowhow and allows it to work. This is why this « storage » topic is crucial. This is also why we consider very important backups and availability systems.
