FYI, Next week's ASP venue in New York
September 25
Making the ASP Model Work
Providing superlative services to customers

September 26-27
Integrating ASP Solutions into Best Business Practices
Overcoming challenges and reaping benefits of outsourcing software applications and services

Gain clarity on what ASPs may or may not be able to offer:

Just what is an ASP, and what benefits might an ASP model offer?
Can the ASP model really deliver the benefits it claims?
Make sense of the complicated relationships between disparate suppliers
Will ASPs
Make IT operations more effective?
Reduce IT costs/TCO?
Increase customer service capability?
Improve competitiveness?
Secure more flexible SLAs?
Minimize supplier switch costs?
Provide sufficient security and privacy measures?
Supply the IP and bandwidth performance required?
Why Application Service Provision?
The ASP model claims to offer a range of customer benefits. But will the paradigm deliver and allow you to achieve what you require and expect, such as:

Enabling information technology resources to focus on more strategic projects
Lowering up-front costs for implementation of business applications
Creating a more predictable cost model
Facilitating reduced implementation time for applications
Streamlining administrative details by having one bill and one point of contact for technical support and other operational needs?
This event is designed to meet the needs of CIOs, CTOs and CEOs of small and large enterprises in the financial, construction, high-tech, retail, telecom, hospitality, legal, healthcare and other sectors, who are considering using a service provider to meet all or part of their IT needs. The ASP business model should be a good fit for small organizations that expect rapid growth but are unable to invest in major IT projects, such as the implementation of a major package. Using services from an ASP should enable cost-effective scaling as volumes grow as well as reducing start-up costs.

Similarly, this model will provide huge benefits to large organizations that seek to directly reduce the need to purchase and manage software and IT infrastructure.
