Association for Enterprise Integration. (Affiliates)).The Association for Enterprise Integration (AFEI AFEI Association For Enterprise Integration ) is a rapidly growing organization that focuses on the challenges, opportunities and benefits associated with enterprise integration and net-centric operations. The building blocks of enterprises today are people, process, technology and information. Each of these is a critical component in achieving effective net-centric enterprises that leverage the power of technology to establish and sustain their operations in a networked economy. Our Value Companies and individuals join AFEI to: * Benefit from the networking opportunities with other companies and our government participants. * Learn about technologies, products and methods that can enhance their own organizational performance Organizational performance comprises the actual output or results of an organization as measured against its intended outputs (or goals and objectives).

The Value of Information Information is a valuable enterprise asset. But when information is shared, it creates great power and even greater benefit. The internet's reach and speed has transformed business. Today, this technology is transforming government. The "Information Age" has radically altered information economics, created new opportunities for innovation and has empowered non-traditional enemies. Industry leads in the development and exploitation of information technology. What is Enterprise Integration? Enterprise integration is, at its core, the use of information across any activity to enhance the knowledge and decisions of that activity to streamline operations and create more effective actions. Enterprise integration must deal with culture and process, concepts of operations, the development of common information languages, enterprise architectures and the application of technology to achieve results. It is the application of technology to break down stovepipes, share information, improve decision processes and create opportunity.
