IT Professional Services & Staff Aug.

In the past, companies typically developed highly customized applications that play a critical role in the business operations of the firm. However, this functionality is usually in legacy systems that have been become obsolete and difficult to train employees to use. With the advent of the internet age, companies recognize that not all of these applications are being utilized in the most effective manner, and wish to use the internet as a platform for a much improved solution.

The definition of Web Enablement is the following: the transition of a non-Web, proprietary technology application to a Web-based robust and easily accessible application that is based on the internet platform and accesses application functionality and current enterprise system data. After completing this transition, businesses not only reduce costs by promoting individual access but also make access (through the internet) much more convenient for customers and internal users

Thus, VICCS is committed to using established standards to facilitate web enablement for its clients.
