Companies are struggling with how to provide more attention to more customers more of the time with limited resources. A seamless integration of web sales, telephone sales, and point of sale transactions with robust financial back office functionality can provide the solution. EagleWing Consulting can help implement a complete technology solution or integrate e-commerce functionality with existing technology while keeping maintenance and support costs to a minimum.
 
EagleWing Consulting's core services include implementing e-commerce package solutions that can be configured within a short period of time, include credit card processing functionality and are easy to administer. As a certified channel partner of Bizfinity, Inc. (www.bizfinity.com), we can provide a company with fully integrated, e-commerce and financial functionality within a framework that provides "bank standard" e-commerce services.
 
 
Full Integration
 
Full integration ensures that all sales transactions whether they occur over the web, on the telephone or in-person at a point-of-sale terminal are processed the same way. For example, there is one customer database, one product file and one sales history file. This uniform approach provides ease of maintainability and integrated versatility.
 
Here are a few examples to illustrate the versatility that exists in this system:
  1. A customer could use a discount coupon at the retail outlet, over the web and/or via a telephone sale. All of these transactions will be managed together ensuring that the proper discounts are applied and credited.

  2.  
  3. A customer could place an order over the telephone, elect to take delivery of only a portion of the order in-person, ship the remaining item(s) to a different address and then check the status of the order on the web. Although there is only one order, the ability exists to transact, ship and check status via multiple access methods (web, phone and in-person).
 
 
"Bank Standard" E-Commerce Services
 
Many small companies evaluating the implementation of e-commerce operations find it difficult to allocate the monetary and technical resources to address issues, such as security, data integrity and system availability. Addressing these areas with optimal performance levels is often referred to as "bank standard" e-commerce services.
 
In order to ensure that your company can provide "bank standard" services to its e-commerce operations, you may want to consider the following:
  • An enterprise database, such as Oracle

  •  
  • Security measures, such as Cisco routers, firewalls, and intrusion detection

  •  
  • Powerful servers, such as Sun E4500 mirrored servers

  •  
  • Data redundancy using mirrored disk arrays

  •  
  • Redundant Internet connections

  •  
  • Automatically managed daily hot and cold / offsite backups

  •  
  • Constant remote and local monitoring

  •  
  • Encrypted data storage

  •  
  • Encrypted URLs

  •  
  • 128-bit secured socket layers (SSL) with bank standard digital certificates
To address the functionality listed above independently can be costly and time consuming. An alternative to purchasing and managing the hardware, infrastructure and services associated with this approach is to contract with an application service provider (ASP). The ASP will provide the robust infrastructure and critical 7x24x365 coverage and is able to leverage its expenses across multiple clients. This approach can typically provide a small company with "bank standard" services, an enterprise infrastructure and technical support at a fraction of the cost.
