Technology project executions rank high on CFOs’ most worrisome risks and enterprise resource planning system (ERP) projects are among them. Surveys regularly show that a significant number of strategic ERP projects fail to deliver expected outcomes, are delayed, and exceed budgets by a long shot. While most companies avoid catastrophic ERP failures, only a few wring out the most value. For top management, failing to deliver a strategic priority is rarely an option. Given a mature ERP solutions market place and mostly competent ERP installers, why do organizations frequently stumble?

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

Why React Native as a Strategic Advantage for Startup Innovation.pdfayushiqss
Do you know that React Native is being increasingly adopted by startups as well as big companies in the mobile app development industry? Big names like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest have already integrated this robust open-source framework.
In fact, according to a report by Statista, the number of React Native developers has been steadily increasing over the years, reaching an estimated 1.9 million by the end of 2024. This means that the demand for this framework in the job market has been growing making it a valuable skill.
But what makes React Native so popular for mobile application development? It offers excellent cross-platform capabilities among other benefits. This way, with React Native, developers can write code once and run it on both iOS and Android devices thus saving time and resources leading to shorter development cycles hence faster time-to-market for your app.
Let’s take the example of a startup, which wanted to release their app on both iOS and Android at once. Through the use of React Native they managed to create an app and bring it into the market within a very short period. This helped them gain an advantage over their competitors because they had access to a large user base who were able to generate revenue quickly for them.

20. SOME NOTES ON GOVERNANCE, RISK MANAGEMENT AND COMPLIANCE
GRC is an acronym that denotes governance, risk management and compliance — but the real story of GRC is so much
more
GRC is the integrated collection of capabilities that enable an organisation to reliably achieve objectives while
addressing uncertainty and acting with integrity – this is the outcome that is known as Principled Performance
Managing GRC information in various spreadsheets or standard office applications is still a very common practice. This
setup is usually satisfactory until an organisation wishes to combine and aggregate the gathered information. This
becomes expensive and ineffective as it normally requires extensive conversion between formats and definitions. In the
worst case, the obtained information is irrelevant or misleading. An integrated GRC system improves efficiency within
organisations in three key aspects:
• Organisations can move from fragmented data collection to asking critical questions once, hence reducing
impact on business
• Stand-alone GRC systems (i.e. one system per GRC domain) are replaced with one integrated GRC system,
which reduces cost and complexity while increasing the likelihood of effective and efficient collaboration
• Overlapping reporting is replaced with integrated reporting, thus showing consistent and recognisable
information with different focus and different purpose to management and board
While it should be noted that creating and working with a new standard is a journey that many may find cumbersome
initially (as it requires a change in mind-set and action), it has visible payoffs. Not only does management information
become instantly accessible and more accurate, the occurrence of incidents are subsequently reduced. Most important,
organisations no longer find themselves focusing on the troubleshooting of problems, but are able to direct their
attention to supporting business enhancements
Being able to manage GRC challenges in a transparent and cost-effective way while avoiding bureaucracy, process lock-
down and allowing for development and change has the potential to become a competitive advantage
Maintaining control is a strategic enabler in an ever-changing environment.
21. Integration is key
econsys can seamlessly link to third party systems providing a single
point of connectivity of departments and people to business data.

42. Feature Comparison
• We cannot find anywhere a direct one to one comparison for the econsys software. By that we mean a
product that has the same spectrum of coverage (contracting industry - enquiry to end of liability) and
already contains ‘domain specific’ flows (isn’t a blank platform to be developed for your business needs).
• Econsys spans at least three main spheres of business that are traditionally covered by software
applications,
• CRM - Customer relationship management – traditionally sales specific
• Contract Management - traditionally commercial, legal and operational software
• GRC - Governance, Risk Management and Compliance – traditionally ‘whole of business’ applications.
• As such we have compared our product to companies in those three arenas and attach our comparison of
features for your review.
• There is also ample opportunity for a company to effectively build their own work flow to suit the needs of
their business using proprietary software available, known as BPM [Business process management]
software. Examples are https://asana.com/ , https://monday.com and https://www.smartsheet.com . The
amount of input and time needed to make the product suit your business can be huge. Econsys is
essentially a product that has been developed for businesses like Schneider to around 90% (we think) of
what you need, based on our knowledge of the subject matter – with the last bits needed to make it your
business specific.
• The following spreadsheet compares the features of econsys with the features of examples of software
that is in the three arenas I mention above. The feature list was derived from
https://www.capterra.com/grc-software/ which is a leading comparison site for finding and evaluating
business software.
