Business Systems Integration
The integration of your company systems can result in massive reduction in unnecessary administration. By improving the flow of information between your systems (accounts, stock control, customer relationship management, communications, website etc) it will enable your business to work at far higher levels of efficiency utilising fewer resources and will invariably improve customer satisfaction (not to mention increasing profitability).
In many cases your company will already have systems and working practices in place that are integral to the operation of your company. AIS will analyse your existing systems helping you to identify administrative bottlenecks and where possible, implement integration strategies and software to help eliminate them.
The possibility of integration depends on many factors, such as the provision of integration methods by the developers of your existing systems and whether integration is a viable path to an improved IT infrastructure.
AIS have extensive experience in developing integration solutions and we are able to use popular Application Programming Interfaces (API's) such as those that expose database access like ODBC, OLEDB etc. We can also programmatically access network directory systems like Novell Netware Directory Services and Microsoft Active Directory Services using API's like LDAP.
If there are no available API's for us to use to gain access to remote systems, we can develop simple procedures like scheduled CSV export transfers to transmit data between systems, such as scripts to extract data from one location and import data into another. This can be achieved using tools such as AISLink and can be carried out as a daily / hourly scheduled task.
