According to a recent discussion between Tony Friscia and John Hagerty of AMR Research, a comprehensive IT research and advisory services company, "getting more out of systems, getting better information for decision making is the number one strategic investment area for companies". They further commented that this focus will remain regardless of where the economy goes.

Providing even more useful data in an even more timely and efficient manner resulting in even better business decisions with no substantial additional capital investment might be a message your management is receptive to.

Meridium APM Extension Services
Fine tuning your information systems
No two companies share identical business goals, work processes and environments or corporate culture. Not surprisingly, these differences often result in the necessity for the development of solution extensions between respective information tools, extending and enhancing system functionalities. Meridium Technology Service experts offer in-depth product, domain and industry knowledge and experience for the "fine tuning" of your Meridium applications improving data exchange between systems as well as specialized reporting capabilities.
Meridium APM Extension Services include:
- Reporting Development Services
Meridium provides many embedded reports as part of the Meridium APM applications as well as providing full extensibility of existing enterprise APM reports through SQL Server Reporting Services to meet specific customer requirements. Meridium Reporting Development Services are provided by experienced Meridium developers for customer specific needs and requirements with regard to enterprise reporting. - Business Rules Development Services
These services provide basic and advanced business rules programming to configure your implementation. These services will be provided by Meridium .NET developers with in-depth Meridium product knowledge and development experiences. - SAP Integration and Development Services
Meridium has a long history of working with SAP including the co-development of RCMO - an SAP Endorsed Business Solution, and achieving "Powered by SAP NetWeaver®" certification for Meridium APM. Through this certification, Meridium's customers are able to extend integration scenarios between Meridium APM and the SAP® Service and Asset Management solution. Meridium provides standard functionality and SAP integration for the most common APM scenarios as well as a highly configurable database offering robust capabilities for the support of the development of customized SAP solution extensions supporting industry specific environments or work processes.
Database Performance Optimization Services
Tuning up your database
If your database appears to be showing signs of fatigue, it may be ready for a tune up. Growing data volume as well as an ever increasing number of applications and users pose ongoing challenges to database speed and performance requiring periodic database review and adjustment. Meridium Database Performance Optimization Services provides a database "tune-up" including:
- database health checks to ensure your database is configured properly for optimal performance;
- database analysis services to identify performance problems, their root causes and recommend and implement solutions collaboratively with in-house personnel; and
- database consulting services offering tailored engagements to help customers implement and configure the Meridium APM database or provide basic support and administrative tasks in support of Meridium APM deployments.
Consider Meridium Technical Services if:
- Resource allocation is unavailable for the conversion of existing Crystal Reports to Microsoft SSRS Reporting or SSAS SQL 2005 Analysis cubes.
- Your APM effort is not receiving the necessary support of internal IT resources because of their work backlog thereby impacting your ability to achieve desired results in the required timeframe.
- Your internal resources do not have the necessary training or expertise to perform APM extensions or database performance optimization checks and analyses.
- Your SAP Integration and Development resources are too busy, or you don't have in-house expertise with tools such as SAP XI/PI and ABAP development.
