CRM
CRM - Customer Relationship Management. Technology or management discipline? CRM is primarily a management discipline embodying the way an organisation deals with its customers across all interfaces and operating divisions. In order to provide all parts of the organisation with a unified view of the customer, enabling the organisation to speak with a unified voice, CRM is usually supported by and implemented through a CRM system.
The huge majority of CRM projects fail. They fail because the business objectives are not clear, and the implementation is left to technical specialists who don't fully understand the business implications of what they are tasked to achieve. Successful CRM is more about change management than technology, it is a business project that has a major technology component as an enabler.
