System Integration is the process of combiningmultiple individual subsystems or sub-components into one all-encompassing larger system. This provides for a platform for the subsystems to function together. Here we integrate all the physical and virtual components of a system to act like a single system. This in turn improves productivity and quality of operations.
Advantages of System Integration
Increased productivity. Integrated systems allow for centralized control over the daily processes which adds to the efficiency of the entire workflow. Maximum output in less time due to the fact that employees can use all apps and data from one entry point.
More accurate data. You update data across all components of the system simultaneously, keeping all departments on the same page.
Faster decision-making. Data is no longer scattered across siloed storages. So, to perform analytics, you don’t need to manually download and export it to the central repository. Instead, with a holistic view of all information, you extract useful business insights to make good decisions more rapidly.
Cost-effectiveness. System integration comes at a lower cost than replacing all disjointed parts with a new single system. Not to mention the tricky process of implementing new computer infrastructures.
