Introduction

 CRM systems are primarily designed to bring together
  customer data from across the company and translate it into
  meaningful intelligence.
 The promise of CRM is one 360 degree view of a customer.
 Some implementations fail to achieve this because of a
  disconnect between CRM and the “Back Office”.
 Many companies purchase their CRM and ERP applications
  from separate “best of breed” vendors due to business
  requirements, potentially resulting in the CRM system
  lacking visibility into back office data and transaction history.

Introduction

Resulting in:

 Departmental silos of information

 Manual work / side systems / inefficiencies

 Erroneous, inconsistent data & resulting poor
  decision-making

 Slow Response Rates to Customer Inquiries

 User Frustration

Introduction




         The days are gone where it’s okay
          to keep CRM data separate from
              ERP and accounting data.

Why Integrate? / Benefits of Integration

   The aim of front to back office integration is to bring
   together disconnected business processes to:

 1. Manage customer relationships more effectively

 2. Reduce costs

 3. Increase profitability

 4. Achieve a long-term competitive advantage

Different ways to integrate:


 One software that has both functions
  (Netsuite, SAP, etc.)



 "best of breed" software that can be integrated
  together.

Closing

 The success of a companies CRM implementation
  and overall functionality, should not be judged or
  based solely on its front office operations, but how it
  interoperates with the back office — encompassing
  people, processes, departments, and applications.

 Over the long term, companies using front to back
  office integration capabilities can expect to
  significantly decrease administrative costs, increase
  customer satisfaction, revenue, and build sustainable
  competitive advantage in an increasingly challenging
  marketplace.
