Review Call Center Continuity Planning / Auerbach Publications:A disruption in your call center operation can conceivably cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars. And multiple disruptions can cost in the millions. Call Center Continuity Planning shows you how to plan for - and avoid - service interruptions through disasters large and small. This book will show you how to deal with everything from power outages to major hurricanes. Should you use external Call Volume Management (CVM) solutions such as pre-established procedures for disaster call routing? Or, should you use internal solutions such as planning for a company cold site, virtual call center, or use of the excess capacity of your other call center during emergency?What about managing call volumes to cope with non-emergency seasonal or time of day peaks? Can you use your call centers minimum daily overflow of calls as a benefit rather than a problem? What is involved in contracting to outsource call handling to another call center in terms of effectiveness, expertise, technology, and human resources - and what advanced call processing techniques are available?Call Center Continuity Planning answers all these questions and more. It also provides detailed information on the concept of CVM, that treats the volume of calls as a fluid, that can be channeled from one place to another via computer-managed switching. Your Call Volume Management system acts like a series of aqueducts to manage the floodwaters of incoming calls before your call-takers are swept away.

Review Intranets: Technical Issues and Business Applications / Computer Technology Research Corporation:The use of intranets for sharing information and enhancing business communications is growing rapidly. With its multiplatform support and any-to-any client/server (C/S) architecture, intranets provide a single interface to company information. CTR's report provides critical resources information systems (IS) managers need to justify costs and implement intranets for their organizations. Intranet Overview The growth of intranets is staggering. Companies that sell Web servers and browsers find 70% to 90% of their sales are now intranet-related versus Internet-related. What is driving corporations to implement intranets? In some cases, intranets are developing through the efforts of interested users. Intranets: Technical Issues and Business Applications examines the wide range of benefits intranets provide and the subsequent burgeoning intranet market, enabling the identification of trends in intranet growth. The report also provides valuable Internet and intranet security resources, technical information about using Web technology, and ideas for intranet applications which provide solutions to business needs. Key Intranet Technologies Examined While the Internet provides communications with a global network, intranets provide an internal network for a company's employees and selected business partners. Intranets put Internet technologies to work within an organization. [+]Intranets: Technical Issues and Business Applications describes the role of key technologies such as transmission control protocol/Internet protocol (TCP/IP), Web clients and servers, hypertext transport protocol (HTTP), and a variety of protocols applied to intranet topology. The report explores the manner in which private intranets can be separate from - and in fact invisible to - the Internet at large. Intranet Applications Explored The most immediate application for intranets is the publishing of existing content online as an alternative to traditional printing methods. Cost savings can be realized overnight because with the right tools, users themselves maintain the information. But publishing applications are merely the beginning for intranets. The standard and ubiquitous Web browser, can provide a single interface to a variety of strategic applications and databases. Intranets: Technical Issues and Business Applications discusses more advanced interactive applications, including interfaces to legacy databases and legacy systems such as mainframes. Sun's Java programming language and Microsoft's ActiveX are described, along with development toolkits for creating advanced applications. As intranets grow, their content requires organization and indexing. The report explains how intranet search engines, performing in a similar manner to Internet search engines, can help users locate intranet-based resources. Intranet Development Solutions Which Web servers operate optimally on an intranet? Can shareware servers reduce costs while providing a quality solution? Should organizations standardize on particular browsers and servers across the enterprise? As companies approach the problems of creating an intranet, vendors are lining up with solutions to help streamline the process. Some Internet vendors offer suites that streamline the process of creating an intranet, including sample applications. The report provides guidelines for evaluating these products and deciding which will provide the most value to the enterprise and is an invaluable resource for organizations needing to create an effective intranet development strategy. Groupware Options Can intranets replace traditional groupware such as Lotus Notes? Certainly they provide similar collaboration capabilities at far lower costs, but a surprising number of large companies using Notes have also developed intranets. Intranets: Technical Issues and Business Applications analyzes the ongoing debate concerning the impact intranets will have on Notes and the groupware market as a whole. Security Concerns When deciding to implement an intranet, the most serious concern that information systems (IS) managers face is establishing adequate security to protect proprietary company information. CTR's report reveals how organizations can implement Web technology internally while protecting their company resources. The report addresses important aspects of intranet security, such as firewalls, virus protection, internal security measures, and development of an enterprisewide security policy. Intranet Implementation Strategies Intranets have low barriers to implementation, but how should an organization get started? Little information is available on the Internet itself to advise IS managers on the aspects of developing an intranet. Intranets: Technical Issues and Business Applications discusses these implementation issues, including technical planning, staffing intranets, maintaining and expanding intranets, and training and support.

Review The Year 2000 Crisis: Developing a Successful Plan for Information Systems / Computer Technology Research Corporation:This 230-page report from CTR covers the strategies critical to battling the year 2000 (Y2K) date problem and is a required resource for information systems (IS) managers. Industry analysts see the Y2K as a potential business survival issue that demands immediate action. What Does the Century Date Change Mean to You? The century date change (CDC) problem is a pressing one. The problem arises because there is no two-digit century value within the date field of today's legacy systems to distinguish between the 20th and the 21st centuries. According to Kevin Schick, spokesman of the Gartner Group, "By 1999, without corrective measures, a full 90% of all applications and systems will be affected by the year 2000 (Y2K) date change, producing unknown or erroneous results. " CTR's report, The Year 2000 Crisis: Developing a Successful Plan for Information Systems, examines the Y2K date change issue and discusses the problem in detail. The report notes that the CDC is a subset of more comprehensive legacy system problems: Original programmers are often long gone, and the source code may be lost. The report also explores problem definition and scope, including the number of systems affected, the cost of addressing the issue, and what constitutes compliance. Year 2000 Business Concerns Should Not Be Underestimated While business leaders are typically underestimating the potential impact of the Y2K, analysts see it as a business survival issue. The Year 2000 Crisis: Developing a Successful Plan for Information Systems addresses the business consequences resulting from the Y2K problem, including the potential for systems failure, the great risk of litigation, and the possible collapse of the entire financial community. [+]The problem should be treated as a "virus" that transcends company borders and has the ability to impact interfaces, structured query language (SQL) databases and applications, trading partners, and non-personal computer (PC) remote devices. Importance of Building Year 2000 Awareness The Year 2000 Crisis: Developing a Successful Plan for Information Systems explains why the Y2K issue differs in several ways from other IS problems, exploring and debunking Y2K myths and misconceptions. Organizations that believe this is a simple technical problem and that there is still plenty of time to resolve it will not be adequately prepared at the turn of the century. The report discusses the importance of building awareness and provides suggestions on how to convince corporate executives of the importance of this issue. Preparing for the Year 2000 The report discusses the importance of taking action, with approaches including quick-start solutions, impact analysis, and a six-step strategy. The project management approach is recommended which suggests that organizations deal with the issue enterprisewide and adequately address important issues such as service provider contracts, application and outside interfaces, packaged software, systems software, end-user software, orphan technologies, and contingency planning. Year 2000 Compliance Options The Year 2000 Crisis: Developing a Successful Plan for Information Systems explores two major compliance options: Date field expansion and procedural work-around approaches. Data migration, validation, logical and physical solutions, alternatives to four-digit expansion, and proving compliance are also discussed. Practical aspects of automating the conversion project are also detailed. The report explores various tool solutions available for the different migration and conversion stages. A baseline process is also given, and additional tool descriptions are provided. The report examines the role of third-party assistance, explores available services, and provides guidelines for a compliance methodology. In most cases, organizations with the Y2K problem will benefit from seeking outside help. The report also discusses finding a synergistic partner and how requests for proposal (RFP) can support Y2K projects. Managing Year 2000 Implementation The report discusses various Y2K issues, including IBM's view of the Y2K, the midrange system impact, and how companies can successfully resolve the problem. Many in-depth case studies of the Y2K issues faced by organizations such as the New York City Transit Authority, the Union Pacific Railroad, and the Equitable Life Assurance Society provide a real-world framework for understanding the Y2K problem. Crucial Year 2000 Building Blocks The Year 2000 Crisis: Developing a Successful Plan for Information Systems includes a discussion of critical success factors for the Y2K project. Leading experts recommend a combination of methodology, process, and project management. The cost and success of such initiatives depend on the degree of coordination among technology groups and solution integration. All analysts agree that immediate action is critical.

Review Year 2000: The International Directory of Y2K Conversion Resources / Computer Technology Research Corporation:The year 2000 (Y2K) conversion process is labor-intensive and requires a great deal of planning, resources, and time. Organizations must realize the size and scope of the date-change problem and begin to implement a plan now if they are to make a successful transition into the next century. CTR's new report is a comprehensive collection of effective Y2K strategies, solutions, and technologies. The report outlines the steps that IT professionals must take in order to guide their organizations to Y2K compliance and covers the possible legal consequences of noncompliance, the importance of testing, and the critical issues to consider when staffing a Y2K compliance team. There are several Y2K solution alternatives but the key to success lies in determining which specific solution, or combination of solutions, is the most appropriate. The report provides an examination of the most common Y2K solutions and conversion tools, including a brief description of each and their advantages and disadvantages. The report includes in-depth analyses of valuable Y2K product and service vendors from around the world. The vendors are divided into 15 different product and service categories in order to make it easier to focus on those suppliers that can provide the most benefit to an IT manager. The report provides IT managers with the resources necessary to design, implement, and test a Y2K conversion strategy, as well as detailed information on staffing a Y2K conversion team and where to go for outside help.

Review Enterprisewide Disaster Recovery: Damage Control for Y2K Conversion / Computer Technology Research Corporation:As the fixed year 2000 (Y2K) deadline approaches, many organizations anticipate a degree of noncompliance within their systems. Some organizations have spent millions of dollars on compliance projects only to discover that some repaired systems may fail regardless of their efforts. The dire consequences of neglecting the Y2K issue could include closing business completely or facing expensive litigation. Therefore, companies must implement protective measures such as triage, contingency planning, backup procedures, inventory buildups, and year-end operation slowdowns. CTR's new report explores the remaining possible Y2K effects and necessary considerations for companies that are concerned with the Y2K issue. The dimensions of Y2K problems are now estimated to extend beyond those imagined two or three years ago. In the United States alone, correcting the Y2K problems in business and government is estimated to cost up to $200 billion. In addition, even compliant businesses may be affected by interacting with systems of partners and third parties. Corrupt data is easily transmitted, and the World Bank's survey of 139 developing nations revealed that only 58 of those nations had initiated any remediation projects. The report offers strategies for approaching the problem at this late stage before the December 31st deadline. [+]Although many companies are underestimating the problems associated with the Y2K, contingency plans are no longer options, but are requirements for ensuring business continuity. Although the Y2K deadline may be too near to repair all enterprise systems - especially for larger companies - organizations can still address mission-critical systems. The report examines all aspects of Y2K strategy options, including outsourcing and partner, supplier, and vendor compliance. It also stresses the legal consequences of neglect, who can sue whom and why, and methods of documentation that can prevent or minimize litigation's effect on business. In this critical information technology (IT) era, company survival depends on the ability to continue operations into 2000 and beyond. With the Y2K deadline quickly approaching, organizations must make Y2K compliance top priority. This new report provides techniques and strategy development methods that can help prevent a Y2K enterprise disaster.
