digital business SERVICES
Internet based business solutions including ecommerce, business portals and electronic marketplaces are heavily biased towards improving the costs and efficiency of transactional activities such as equipment, materials and services procurement, data and information sourcing and sharing, and asset and commodities trading. However, cost and cycle time reduction are only one half of the business equation. Companies have to grow value, and at the end of the day success comes from effectively managing growth strategies and the business development process. In the upstream oil and gas industry value creation is very much a knowledge based process, and such processes are fundamentally different to transactional processes. For this reason, Lapis has developed its digital business expertise in the area of Internet-enabled management and human networking processes.
Successful
implementation
of
growth
strategies for
a
company
and
its

requires
that
management
take
a
holistic
or
systems
approach.
By

Lapis
has
the
ability
to
design
and create
innovative digital business
capability
that
transcends
the

simple
transactional
processes
that
are
now commonly
being
implemented.
Lapis digital business
services
are
unique
because
they
are
driven
by

value
creation
outcomes
rather

technology
solutions.
