of products, production management capacity
Trang 6Vietnamese enterprises have to invest in information technology applications to enhance business performance, especially when integration opens the door However, they should invest selectively and strategically with specific plans instead
of investing by leaps and bounds The major difficulties faced by domestic businesses are the gap in technology, technical level and experiences Therefore, domestic enterprises should have specific business strategies and development project, application of information technology to remain in competition Moreover,
in order to accelerate the competitiveness, enterprises will have to reduce the transaction time and increase service capacity, build the information system and innovate the executive leadership, and invest wisely Information system need to be integrated and a closed process that links all business operations When with integrated information from all business sections, the company leader should have ability to get information quickly to generate reasonable business practices This is because technology is just a means for business rather than a decision for business ability in its self Lastly, enterprises should not put price as the most impotance, they should focus on the ability to provide long-term support, and financial viability
of the service provision The most important thing is the technical method of the system
