Re: need Web enablement and Customer Self-Service for JDE World

[Kelly Cookson <KCookson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you want to make good business decisions with a project this big and important, an email list is probably not your best source of advice. You should probably hire a consultant to evaluate your situation more closely and help you make the best decisions given your circumstances. 

What technologies do you want to use? EGL? Java? .NET (with Lansa integration products)? PHP? CGI? 

Do you want to build your own online shopping cart? Purchase an online shopping cart software package and run it from an IBM, Zend, or Apache web server? Pay a company to host an online store front for you, then set up an interface between their system and your JD Edwards system?

If you need help designing this system, who will be around to maintain it? What are your current employee skill sets? How much are you willing to invest to get new skill sets (if needed)? Would you hire or re-train to get the new skill sets? 

You really need an expert who will take the time to understand your business, your skill sets, and your circumstances. 

By the way, I am NOT a consultant. I do not benefit from saying you need to hire one.
