Executive Seminar On Upgrading Performance
By Hadi DP Mahmud

Bandar Seri Begawan - A Seminar on building high performance government will be held on Monday, February 12 at the Orchid Garden Hotel in Berakas.

Jointly organised by BAG Networks, Accenture and Oracle, the seminar will highlight how proper implementation and management of enterprise systems can lead to higher levels of performance. Insights from a new study of organisations with enterprise systems conducted by the Accenture Institute for High Performance Business in 2005 and 2006 will be shared with the invited guests.

These include how successful organisations are using their systems to create new business value - how they develop distinctive capabilities that gives them a competitive advantage and analytics. Analytics are important tools that enable executives to make better decisions, thus making it more likely for organisations to reap what they sow. For the past decade,' expensive enterprise systems were criticised for its inability to provide organisations with the necessary competitive edge. Enterprise systems, designed to bring a wide variety of business benefits, were brought into organisations to replace various technology applications which posed inter-operability problems, amongst many others.

BAG Networks pointed out in its media release yesterday that Accenture's latest research has shown that enterprise systems are now helping organisations achieve higher performances. However, not all organisations achieve benefits equally, BAG Networks stated. Accenture's new study showed that top performers, as compared to low performers, took a distinctively different approach to implementing and leveraging their enterprise systems.

"With the completion of the e-government programme audit exercise, perhaps the deliberations in this seminar may reinforce the justification for the planned actions to be taken to quicken the e-government programme implementation process," Mohd Shakharulain Mohd Thani, General Manager of BAG Networks explained.

The seminar, by invitation only, is expected to be attended by more than 70 senior executives from both the public and private sectors with Deputy Minister of Communication, Dato Paduka Hj Yusoff Hj Abd Hamid as the guest of honour. -- Courtesy of The Brunei Times
