We are recommending that professionals who are considering
technology-based business decisions for their organizations in 2008 take a look at the article we are providing. It is excerpted from EM&C
magazine and authored by Joe Knisley – and it covers the most recent BISCI conference.
The headline touts:
“Conservation efforts have a social
cachet and saving dollars proves to be just as important”
The article caught our attention because it touches on areas
that regularly impact you, our valued clients. The article offers up ideas and trends that we know are important to informed business leaders so
note that you will find these timely topics covered:
- The convergence of Internet
Protocol (IP) networks to help businesses achieve a greater return on their information technology (IT) investments;
- Companies looking beyond
voice-over-IP (VoIP) and data traffic to include security systems, building automation, and access control on the network;
- Retailers who are rolling out new
point-of-sale systems, video conferencing, multimedia, music – and more;
- Hospitality businesses addressing
the demands of hotel guests who are expecting more in-room services, such as high-definition movies/TV and Internet
access.
The conference addressed a practical blend of new
technology applications, business trends and industry standards. It also focused on the rapidly emerging phenomenon of
“Green Building” and the related topic of “LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design)” which plays a big role in the operating efficiency of green building.
We put the article into a reader friendly format for your
convenience and we trust you will find it both informative and useful. Link to it here. (You
