BPI Cloud Services
The cloud computing business model is applicable for companies that consider certain business processes as opportunities to enjoy significant cost reduction by means of shared software, infrastructure and resources. BPI Cloud computing describes a new supplement, consumption, and delivery model for software based on the Internet, and it typically involves over-the-Internet provision of dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources.There are many motivations for companies to pursue cloud computing including:
- The need to reduce cost on non-strategic processes where the company has no competitive advantage;
- The desire to adopt standard industry practices and apply them to the company’s business processes; and
- The company has scarce IT and/or business resources to manage operations and processes.
Because of BPI’s proven proprietary “Layered Technology” with its inherent multi-tenancy, power processing, and ease of configuration capabilities and benefits, BPI’s cloud computing business model becomes a perfect fit for specific business processes.
Under this business model, BPI software operates in a cloud environment including SaaS, PaaS and IaaS options. The customer subscribes to usage of the software but does not own it. Implementation is much shorter and faster than an ‘Enterprise model’ because companies can skip the first two phases of a typical enterprise implementation; i.e.,
- Planning & Analysis
- Design
This allows them to quickly focus on steps - Build/Configure
- Deliver and
- Operate
