Earlier these enterprise applications were considered to be very bulky and expensive. They were often implemented by big and complex organizations only. But now after introduction of Open source applications even SMEs have realized it as an inevitable need for standardizing the business process. It not only standardizes the processes but also cut the cost dramatically. Taking an example of CRM (Customer Relationship Management) needs in any organization, in real scenario any medium size organization normally interacts with hundreds of client in a day. These interactions are done by the customer executives. Now, for higher management it is nearly impossible to track each and every interaction. It is also not possible to find out whether the set standards are being practiced or not. Enterprise applications like CRM help these organizations to keep all the related data in central CRM database and allow the users to execute it whenever required which ultimately leads to more customer satisfaction and better sales management. It helps in quantifying the entire pre sales, sales and post sales process and provides better sales projections.

If we put our eyes deep inside the root values of Enterprise applications and Six Sigma, we can easily identify the areas where both complement each other, like:

a)      Six sigma is the statistical modeling of business process; enterprise applications like CRM (Customer Relationship Management) and ERP provide the statistical basis for the modeling.

b)      To carry out Six Sigma projects organizations has to follow a defined sequence of steps; enterprise applications can very much help in defining the exactly same sequence of steps throughout the process.

c)      One of the most important objectives of Six Sigma is to make decision on the basis of variable data, rather than assumption and guesswork; Enterprise / business applications help the higher management in getting the live data of the related process in more executable way.

So we can see that Enterprise applications, which are often called as Business applications, help an organization to practice Six Sigma effectively. Some well know business applications are CRM, ERP, Inventory management, Project management, Content management applications, Document Management System etc. Out of which, open source CRM like SugarCRM together with Open source CMS like Joomla, Drupal has proven its successful global presence. These open source applications are unlike proprietary applications and adaptable with any type of business environment. Being an Open source these are inexpensive and reach at their ROI very quickly. But, while choosing a proper business application at any organization, the objective should be fixed for achieving six sigma.

Promoting your products and services, Selling, cross selling, up selling, revenue generation, making money and calculating profits for next year’s projection, sounds cozy! Isn’t it? Is it that simple?
The ultimate goal of any business organization is to make profits by collaborating with its customers and prospects. The whole idea starts with searching prospects in the target market. Initial interaction is required to know whether the selected prospects are really interested in your service or not. If you are lucky enough you will get the piece of pie. Then you take a call and start concluding on the specific requirements of the prospect. Match the specific need with the availability at your organization and win a project for your organization.
Now it is clear that your core business lies in this profit center which is Marketing and sales. Unfortunately IT industries first started paying attention on the cost centers of the organization and implemented so many success stories as ERP implementations. Up to some extent it was quite obvious, as the industrialization started with sellers market concept where customer’s specific needs were not very important for any organization. But now scenario has entirely changed. Market has become buyer’s market and in this nearly “perfect competition” organizations can’t avoid customer’s  preference and comfort, if they want to survive. CRM believes in the potential of customer’s happiness and takes care of your “golden goose”.
