In the current environment, Atos Origin is focusing on areas, which deliver real value in the short term. These include comprehensive support for Mergers, Acquisitions and Divestments; strategic and tactical outsourcing; Business Intelligence (BI) / Strategic Enterprise Management (SEM); and the exploitation of enterprise wide synergies through our Innovation Centre approach to the total lifecycle of ICT systems. This focuses on reducing TCO, the implementation of new applications such as SRM and CRM, and the beneficial introduction of new technologies such as SAP's Enterprise Service Architecture.
We continually incorporate and build upon industry best practices, where we will with a proven method implement and deliver support services for an enterprise resource planning solution - perfect for midsize companies and large enterprises with subsidiaries. We support the increasingly stringent requirements of regulatory compliance in areas such as EHS (Environment, Health and Safety) where new requirements like Emission Management are being introduced continuously. And, as Chemical companies pursue growth into new markets such as China, Middle East, India and, in the longer term, Russia, Atos Origin supports the rapid growth in these geographies for our strategic global clients and also for local companies.
