), has achieved exceptional system availability levels since deploying Concord's eHealth Suite three years ago. Because of this, LCFR's internal IT services group has been able to meet all of its commitments to quality of service in that time.

In late 1999, the Compagnie Financiere E. de Rothschild decided to bring its IT operations back in-house, after several years of outsourced services. This decision was taken based on the bank's wish to guarantee its customers total confidentiality and discretion at all times, which could only be achieved if the bank's IT services group had full control over internal application systems. In addition, LCFR's staff needed a superior level of service and speed of reaction to optimize the bank's competitive advantage. The decision to reinternalize its information systems prompted the bank's search for a solution to defuse potential systems problems before they became critical and impacted the bank's day-to-day business operations Business operations are those activities involved in the running of a business for the purpose of producing value for the stakeholders.

"During our evaluation, we found that some of the solutions we tested were particularly invasive, in terms of their complexity and their requirement for changes to other parts of our in-house systems," said Jean-Christophe Mougnaud, Information Systems Director at LCFR. "When we looked at the eHealth Suite," added Patrick Eskenazi, Technical Director of LCFR's Information Systems, "We were particularly impressed with its flexibility, ease of deployment, and potential to grow along with our business. In the three years we have been using it, Concord's eHealth Suite has consistently kept its promises and has helped us meet our commitments to quality of service."

The Compagnie Financiere E. de Rothschild uses the eHealth Suite to assess potential network issues, server capacity, and application availability in real time, so that IT staff can take any necessary action before problems arise in day-to-day banking operations. The single interface provides them with an overview of the IT infrastructure at all times, as well as reports for planning and research purposes.
