Information management has became a strategic aid. Straight lines are a crucial step, before one obtains total knowledge management (kilometer) in an organization, it, since basis for running leave to each successful organization, the potential have can to grant sufficient return to investments (ROI) over their IT expenditure is regarded, in the near and far future.

While observers and Meteoroligists describe and forecast the coming of an information society or an information economy, enterprises have and their managements in the information technology (IT) invests around strategic and competition advantage to search. A number from far away well-known copy have headline effects, while they cause obvious competition advantage, important productivity and achievement gains to produce, or supply new ways of handling and doing the business had.

The large acts of Merill lynch, American hospital supplying material or American airlines of in the USA, of in the Reuters, from in the holidays Thomson and of in the Nottinghamgebaeudegesellschaft in Great Britain have or alarmed even asterisk critics counting and IT excited.

Particularly in the last decade, the supply in the communications infrastructure and the new technologies, if they made high-speed transmission possible of the general geschaltenen nets of the Datenover, in addition brought changes out in the information management and affected indirectly, as we the organization to understand and regarding, how, managers and specialists to work.

Frequently there is a correspondence between new organizational terminology and the language of IT is interlaced organizations, interorganization alliances, distributed organizations and the intelligent or knowledge-based Korporation, examples. This as whole view and analysis possibly on a term level on states the organizations, the systems or structures of communication and data processing to be seen.

Into progress in the communication technologies, new in this light, more auserlesener organizational structure and the ability, to increase could and communication channels permit us to our information. The information handling and them converting into the knowledge, which could do IT than any is more important, systems one introduces, always is it those usefulness and the fast re-establishment of the information itself. in order the information front LINE personnel and customer of you require and of seize you this together as soon as possible, of form you the basis knowledge and core of the information management to mark.

As soon as we have the raw information, this into a structured and usable knowledge container would not form much a problem to be. Only then will are we in a position for supplying a complete kilometer solution. This at the age or on-line in, is responsible one does to business and for each information on or indirectly made available to the customers, either permit-proves responsible. If the bars are so high, it is extreme desirable to have our informing exact and current data bases. The following points are the extreme, which is substantial to bring this out.

There is a number of practical steps one can take, in order to guarantee information accuracy:·We should have a durable crew in the place for causing and updating informing contents.·We should durable communication channels with the sources of the new information (groups of politics, enterprise units, etc..) manufacture.·We should make sure that, which updates the informing data base, are some of ' sign away ' requirements for business development.·We should make a simple unit available for front LINE personnel, around disturbances and omissions.

Information management challenges lie in two general ranges: 1) the strong spreading of the new technology, the communications networks and the data processing demands. Phaenomenale of progress of small articles and software produced progress in the communications technology technology in the form of in the InterNet, in the world-wide net and innumerable local in the networks. This tendency continues forming the information more simply those in the computer systems, on an international basis to divide to be concentrated. Information management on the national level has more step than held with management expectations.

From such management means such as punch cards, magnetic tapes, to file /clientbedienern, to the local networks, to the long distance networks, to the magnetic cartridges, digital disk Rome, etc. gave way to magnetic drum, magnetic disks, etc.. The only constant regarding information technology and management expectations is change. 2) new expenditures of data security and certified expenditures. The criticality of the information particularly gave to many other factors data and/or information security to birth.

Other factors are those, which to private lives and the international network connection of the information is referred by multinational companies. Stepping out world-wide nets and the potential for criminal activity lend themselves to many activities, which security and certified view, for which from of standards and of of laws, cause in consideration are present. We should supervise these developments and them our political lines and enterprises.

Certified and regulating climate and security extend so fast, as the many facets of the data adminstration in a global information exchange climate are examined and understood. We that information and communicationses (ICT) increase information and knowledge processes and supports their consumption, find factor 2.The ICT, if we analyze information management, in some ways:

·Ready entrance to organized information
·Improves communications and dependence (either individually or in the groups)
·Make accessible the personal informing proppings (like cognitive diagram tools)
·Use of specific point solutions (e.g. danger analysis with lending)
·Group decision support systems, which facilitate decision-making processes.

It is general to have information screens the applications of business processes supports. E.G. with an insurance company, the knowledge of its best experts was contained into assistance screens in desktop the system of its insurer.

At the call centers in the asiatic southeast countries, operators of weather report can regard and with the newest political developments of the oceanic countries of transport next to each other hold, serve them too. 2.1 contributions of ICT: Frequently computer communications help to manufacture the relations between people which pursue afterwards with "richer" comwares, like Videoconferencing or confidential. BP e.g. rolled from Videoconferencing as key plank of its knowledge management initiative, in their virtual crew-working project.

This leaves experts and head workers untouched effectively into connection and ' tacit ' knowledge without the necessity to divide to travel. Another useful perspective on the role of ICT in the knowledge management is the role that technology infrastructure. Present daily progress communications technology and its technologies permits joint work, like into those the Intranet and groupware.

The communications technology backbone supplies, the one to the basic and ' stepping stones together enterprise width and the intermediate enterprise joint infrastructure for information scatter and management establishes you. 2.2 outsourcing formed simply: Fast supply in the communication technology and news services added a new measure the concept of the outsourcing, which surrounds service functions now, additionally to the work and raw material outsourcing.

This ability to the outsourceservice requirements with technology and infrastructure to the in the middle of the low costs has an excitement of the new business opportunities produced, which are together characterized as IT, made possible services. THEM made possible services are business processes and maintain accomplished or made available from a position, which is different to that of their users or the beneficiary and supplied over telecommunications nets and the Internets. IT made possible services surrounds an expanded spectrum of the activities, which fall under the block of the information management.

This covers customer dependence functions, financing and bookkeeping, data searches and analysis, remote training, transmission, etc.. Of call in the middle (also marked, when customer dependence centers), can be defined as engaged service in particular, which serve, when divided are based service in the middle, because specific customer oriented activities and heavily on condition the art communication and information technology. Call in the middle for the treatment of a multiplicity of the customer dependence activities such as marketing are used and to sell, the supplying information, advice and/or technical support, charge metering, customer service, etc..

Key business driver: Some factors drive growth for IT made possible services within this range, of which some are:·Fast step of the technological supply too in the new communication possibilities of communication and news services, which open the doors.

·Step of the acceptance in the communication infrastructure costs
.·Step of the acceptance in the unit cost prices of the energy counting.
·Increasing tendency, under commercial world more rueber, obenliegende by the outsourcing not core activities to reduce (like content, which processes, discussion completion, processing credit card, data mining industry, etc..) to buy driven by the views according to a mark or decision in the production.

Growth in InterNet consumption. (you see also to lecture slides in the appendix), therefore we can derive easily that fast improvement in the information technology and the communication infrastructure make increasingly geographical barriers redundant. The effects, by which by this example of the business can be measured, produced in illustrations expressed.

The world-wide call center service market added Bn USD 23 in the incomes 1998 and is expected, up to $58.6 billion to double until 2003. In US alone, outsourced the gross incomes from call in the middle in the USA became estimated over approximately Bn USD 17 during 1998. The total number with 69.500 were expected call in the middle, over approximately to 78,000 to develop until 2003 estimated and in Europe to be according to market estimations, the call center market in Europe estimated, over over Bn USD 8 1999 and project to the increase to the Bn USD 15 to 2003. Great Britain is at present the largest call center outsourcing market in Europe with 7000 call in the middle, the million-people starting from March 2001 employs.

Economist reported that a typical western Bankdosenoutsource 17-24% of it is cost basis, a reducing it to the income relationship by percentage 6-9 is cost and in many cases, doubles you him is profits. 3.Recent advances costs, flexibility, simplicity and Muehelosigkeit of the management in communications technology - virtual private nets (VPN) and voice (IPTELEPHONIE, sprachueber IP) of 3.1 general nets of the safe Geschaeftskommunikationsover for a multiplicity of reasons -- -- business uses increasingly general data networks, in order to attach remote workers, branches, customers, partners and suppliers.

The key too so reliably and is private the virtual private net (VPN) does. From VPN is necessarily for the small firm -, fast, safe and priority the giving connections for mobile users, teleworkers or removed branch offices, with a minimum new investment and administrative overhead costs. A VPN is a private net unfolded general excessive service, which similar levels of the private life, which places security, the quality services and the Manageability to the nets to the order, which are established completely on engaged, privately possessed or renting service. With the right software and entrance systems safe communication becomes possible even over the notoriously far open InterNet.

Correctly imported VPNs are to the users differentiating of the korporativen LAN climate nisht too. They can more simply also be, above, to exercise less expensively to adjust function, and more simply than rented line nets. 3.2 SERVICE Over VoIP to the order placing long-distance, of fills a divided virtual private net of the data the Cisco multi-service over VPN Bezugsarchitektur the distance between the worlds data and Sprachconnectivity and of supplies an integrated solution.

Customers are ready, use from saving the costs and new applications of worlds, which a standardized presupposes IPINFRASTRUKTUR. This existing functionality, together with the prospect of the multiple connection place income-producing and cost-saving IPDIENSTLEISTUNGEN, the speaking and Dateninfrastrukturer are only possible in an individual IPNETZ by the convergence. 3,3: IPVideoconferencing: Image communication is a new application for most IPNETZE. But it has definite advantages gotten inside the people over by the ball together is. Netzder manager with a practical solution for combining voice and data over a net represented 3,4 wireless language nets stepping out the technology voice over-IP (VoIP).

This opportunity, the net of networks of the infrastructures and managements now exists for (wl to), as well as in the wired net to standardize wireless local. A, which led new production of the call center technology to a new way, so that business has entrance to the latest into the multi-channel, centers 3.5 IPANRUF, multi media call in the middle. These designate the central technologies, be based on opened platforms and IP Technologycounting, form buy call in the middle as service one compelling alternative to the development of the condition-created products.

This white paper makes the background available on acceptance of IP Centrex ACD and explains the advantages of the earlier production of the new Erzeugungstechnologieover. It supplies also customers of a space business justification, in order to use the new production call center services. I would like to discuss this newest development a little in the detail. VoIP advances 3,5,1 in technology: The information management form cost and time effectively. Starting from December 2001, the IPTELEPHONIENETZE (was based on packet switching in the comparison with traditional electric circuit circuit) explained estimated 1.6 billion minutes traffic per month.

Corpus width units in the countries around the world are already admission of outside fund the profits handled IPNETZE of the language traffic of the Over, near followed of the consumers, that form telephone calls over the general InterNet. According to research enterprises Telegeography, travel 3 per cent international telephone telephone calls over IPNETZE today; 10 per cent of the calls from the United States to Mexico travel already over the net.

According to the world telecommunications politics policy IPTELEPHONIE amounts to 25 to 40 per cent of all international language traffic until 2004. Opposite to the popular misunderstandings, which quality services of the VoIP (language over-IP) has really drastically improved, and main hoisting engines of the world constantly IPNETZE has contained which. IPTELEPHONIEASP new applications for markets VoIP drive call to the roaming across, spacer learning in the ranges such as net interfaces, and eCRM. Very large markets open in the world for services such as PC, in order to call communications, standardized transmission of news, net-created call in the middle and the accounting centers, which are based on opened regulation minutes.

Fortunately, it gives to be called more standardisation compared by equipment and services in VoIP with other Telephonievorrichtungen, owing to the interoperability fairs, ' bakeoffs. ', with correct partnerships sees those, which cover VoIP, a fluctuation in the demand for service services such as the yellow Pages, diagram and direction services and specifies meetings within the specified distances and clicking before choice button. User of the services VoIPSIND in the layer to be knocked applications over from the world to and not be jumped to their local Diensterbringern in the PSTN model.

Competition strengthened in the global village, and there is a rising need at the 24X7 customer service. IP Telephony formed outsourcing and away from the Shoring of CRM an important choice for global main players. To 2005 call center means will use 35 per cent world-wide IP Telephony, according to market research firm Ovum. Technology matured that, which progress in the communications technology technology the ability caused to the point, in which all information about a customer on an individual system is present, so that nearly each possible computer system connect-connects any different one with the speed of milliseconds over the ball.

If the InterNet based, the business solutions know made possible by this technology, which runs into the background, companies to redefine, like it relevant information with the key components in its business - not straight its internal function groups, in addition, customers, partners and suppliers to divide and handle.

This everywhere existing Connectivity, which is caused by InterNet business solutions, causes firmer conditions over the extended enterprise of the company and can as much a competition advantage for the company as its for core its products and services.
