Abstract

Demands onenterprise applications are changing drastically in terms of service and value. Currently enterprises have started to view these applications as service systems, as they combine technology with organizational networks designed to deliver services that satisfy the needs of customers and marketing operations. Social networking is playing a crucial role in this direction and provides organizations with the critical data that enable to build strong relationships with their customers and partners. Enterprises have started using this concept, by integrating social networking services with their enterprise applications such as CRM. In this paper, we combine an open source social networking engine with a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) application to constitute a social CRM system. This can bring the customers closer to the enterprise and facilitate better communication with them. Social Networking Analysis constructs were used to analyze the effectiveness of service system. In the current competitive and economically challenging conditions, salespeople needs to quickly and effectively establish meaningful communication with customers. Our approach can address this issue, by handling the changing customer demands in minimal time, and increases service quality and business value.

엔터프라즈 어플리케이션에 대한 요구 사항은 서비스와 가치의 입장에서 철저히 변화되고 있다. 최근 기업들은 기술과 고객과 마케팅 운영의 필요를 충족하는 서비스를 제공하기 위하여 설계된 조직체의 네트워크와 함께 결합하면서 이러한 어플리케이션들을 서비스 시스템으로써 보기 시작하였다. 소셜 네트워크는 이러한 방향에서 주요한 역할을 담당하며, 고객과 파트너 간의 견고한 관계를 세울 수 있는 결정적인 정보를 조직에 제공해줄 수 있다. 기업은 소셜 네트워크 서비스를 CRM과 같은 엔터프라이즈 어플리케이션들과 통합하여 이런 개념을 이용하기 시작하였다. 본 논문에서는, 오픈 소스 기반 소셜 네트워크 엔진과 CRM 어플리케이션을 결합하여 소셜 CRM 시스템을 구성하였다. 이를 통하여 고객들을 기업에 더 근접하게 이끌어 올 수 있게 되며, 고객들과 더욱 원활한 소통을 촉진할 수 있게 된다. 서비스 시스템의 효율성을 분석하기 위하여 소셜 네트워크 분석을 사용하였다. 경쟁적이고 경제적으로 도전적인 상황에서, 판매자는 빠르고 효과적으로 고객들과 의미있는 소통을 정착할 필요가 있다. 본 접근방법을 통하여 최소화된 시간 안에 변화하는 고객의 요구사항을 처리함으로써 이러한 이슈를 겨냥할 수 있으므로, 서비스 품질과 비즈니스의 가치를 향상할 수 있게 된다.
