  22. Regional Bell Operating Company • We were engaged by this RBOC to take their existing 106 web sites and incorporate them into a common Internet architecture. Key Business Issues Each of the 13 business units have managed their own internet presence which creates multiple brand images, multiple faces to the customer and lack of business process and systems integration throughout their existing 106 sites. Solution Approach E-Business Strategy and Implementation • The solution leverages Interwoven for content management, Broadvision for dynamic rendering and personalization and Open Market Transact as shopping cart and on-line ordering. • During Phase I, we are moving all 106 externally facing web sites to a consolidated "Internet Operations Center"-IOC. Currently, as many as 86 of the sites are hosted externally. This move will allow for the company to control updates and security of the sites • In Phase 2, we will implement as much of the existing business unit sites (still in a silo) on the new technologies and utilizing the new vendor products. This will be the initial re-design, re-branding, and re-wrapping of existing sites. The goal is to cut the number of sites in half. • In Phase 3, all sites will be implementing on the new technologies and completely utilizing the new vendor products. This will be the second phase of re-design, re-branding, and re-wrapping of sites. At this point, all sites will have a common look and feel as well as integration. • The user experience that is personalized to the customer’s profile. For example, the user could go on-line, login and see their cell phone bill, residential bill, and pager bill all on one consolidated bill. They could pay the bill via credit card, EFT, or digital wallet. In addition, they could perform real-time updates to any of their service plans or cancel service. This phase also provides for a complete eStore shopping experience, and provides a mechanism for people to sign up for new service Results • In Process

  23. Tetra Pak • TP is aggressively pursuing the use of E-Business as a key to work more closely with it’s customers. Customers will have access to their relevant information on TP systems and will subsequently be able to transact business directly over the web with TP. This will improve processes quality and efficiency for both TP and it’s customers, thereby also raising customer satisfaction. Key Business Issues • Leverage the Internet to provide foundation for transacting business. • Drive increased, better and faster collaboration with customers. • Increase customer satisfaction. • Gain competitive advantage. E-Business Strategy and Implementation Solution Approach TP is following a tiered E-Business implementation strategy by first providing key customers access to relevant customer information into TP’s systems via the web. Subsequently, this will involve increased interaction with the customers, followed by transaction support linking into its SAP backbone. The PricewaterhouseCoopers/TP project will deliver a TP hosted Extranet site, leveraging PricewaterhouseCoopers’s Channel.Connect software, to share and collaborate customer specific information and its customers. The notion of a single portal is key to TP’s strategy. Extensive customer research and requirements conducted by TP and the E-Business project are guiding the development efforts. The US is the pilot for a global implementation. Results • Construction stage in process with September 1999 implementation for Phase 1.

  24. U.S. Postal Service • The overall goal of the project was to integrate scores of existing web sites supported by disjointed technologies and presented with uncommon interfaces into a cohesive Web presence. PricewaterhouseCoopers is responsible for assisting with the design and implementation of the redesigned web site including design and deployment of a state-of-the-art content management tool, conversion of all existing content to the revised format and potential deployment of an electronic commerce application. Key Business Issues USPS sought input and recommendations from PricewaterhouseCoopers on marketing direction, segmentation and product integration, and, the design of an enterprise-wide system architecture including security. Finally, PricewaterhouseCoopers assisted in the evaluation and recommendation of content management and e-commerce tools. E-Business Strategy and Implementation Solution Approach Focusing on development activities, PricewaterhouseCoopers performed an 8-week analysis of industry-leading content management applications. Upon completion of this analysis, PricewaterhouseCoopers was positioned to recommend BroadVision’s One-to-One Enterprise solution as thesoftware package that best met the requirements of the USPS. Next, PricewaterhouseCoopers’s development resources, trained and experienced in BroadVision capabilities, built and implemented a functional design specification based on the One-to-One Enterprise. This specification outlined the approach for extending BroadVision’s database architecture to meet specific USPS data requirements, integration of design templates, script components and HTML files, and customization of BroadVision’s Dynamic Command Center and Publishing Center Tools. Results In--process with a projected launch in the Fall of 1999.

  26. Thomson Consumer Electronics • PricewaterhouseCoopers performed E-Business work for Thomson Consumer Electronics in the Dealer and Direct-to-Consumer areas of the business. This work involved strategic consulting, process improvement, software development and technical infrastructure. Key Business Issues TCE wanted to sell their products to dealers and consumers over the web. Although the initial scope included the U.S and Canada, TCE expects to market their products globally via the web in the future. The solution developed had to be scaleable and extensible to address future needs. Solution Approach E-Business Strategy and Implementation • In the Dealer space, PricewaterhouseCoopers designed and developed the Thomson Dealer Network (TDN). TDN serves as a single internet portal for Thomson and its dealers to conduct business electronically. TDN is a global application that offers dealers a product catalog, online ordering, order status, marketing/promotional information and service-related information. • PricewaterhouseCoopers was also asked to help Thomson create an overall E-Business strategy for the corporation. PricewaterhouseCoopers conducted a company-wide E-Business assessment and envisioning project where E-Business opportunities were quantified, scoped and prioritized for implementation. One of the key opportunities to emerge out of the strategy project was Direct-to-Consumer. PricewaterhouseCoopers built the business case and strategy for Thomson to sell products directly to consumers over the internet. Results • Over 1,000 dealers on-line. • Global rollout in progress. • Direct-to-consumer goes live in 4Q99.
