Omschrijving

Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties. Klantcontact bepaalt het succes van een bedrijf. Als je een goed en duidelijk beeld hebt van je klanten, kun je de sales, service en het klantvertrouwen vergroten. CRM kent een geïntegreerde benadering, waarin elke interactie met de klant door de hele organisatie heen wordt verbeterd. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is beschikbaar als online dienst en kan als zodanig worden beschouwd als een software as a service (SaaS) applicatie.

Omschrijving

Onder de noemer CRM vallen de onderwerpen Sales Force Automation (SFA), Service Management en Marketing Management.

Uit onderzoek blijkt dat grote organisaties een te rooskleurig beeld hebben van de tevredenheid van hun klanten met hun service. Een actieve Service Management strategie in combinatie met het uitputten van online mogelijkheden om de klanttevredenheid te verhogen is belangrijk voor een hogere klanttevredenheid. Avanade beschikt over een netwerk van business kennis en technische kennis gerelateerd aan Microsoft Dynamics CRM. Avanade heeft haar eigen tools ontwikkeld voor onder andere sentiment analyse op basis van Twitter en Facebook. Een belangrijk onderdeel van Marketing Management is campagne management.

Kwalificaties

Omschrijving

Technical infrastructure

TI (technical infrastructure) staat binnen Avanade ook wel bekend als SE ofwel System Engineering. TI (of SE) betreft alles wat te maken heeft met infrastructuur: inrichten en beheren van werkplekken, server farms en complete data centers.

Omschrijving

Een werkplek is één van de meest belangrijke assets van een bedrijf. Deze werkplek geeft hun werknemers toegang tot de systemen en stelt hen in staat hun werk op een juiste en effectieve manier uit te voeren.

De werkplek is momenteel veelal gebaseerd op Windows XP. Helaas wordt ondersteuning op dit platform kostbaar en voldoet het niet meer aan de eisen en wensen van de werknemer. Bedrijven hebben echter moeite met de overstap naar een nieuwe werkplek. Een werkplek is meer dan een installatie van een besturingssysteem. Een werkplek is persoonlijk, kent specifieke applicaties en is bij voorkeur mobiel. Avanade heeft hiervoor een visie ontwikkeld onder de noemer ‘Next Generation WorkPlace’ (NGWP).

NGWP bestaat uit een complete set met een oplossing voor een werkplek transformatie van een verouderd, Windows XP, platform naar een nieuw platform op basis van Windows 7 of Windows 8?!

Kwalificaties

De opdracht omvat een analyse van de markt, waar zijn bedrijven momenteel naar opzoek? Waar zitten verbeterpunten in de huidige trajecten? En wat moet Avanade doen om haar propositie sterk in de markt te kunnen zetten?

De opdracht bestaat uit:

- Onderzoek naar de inzet van de Windows 7, Office 2010, App-V en System Center Configuration Manager producten binnen de Next Generation Workspace oplossing.

- Opstellen van herbruikbare templates, installatie handleidingen van de NGWP producten.

- Opstellen van een sales presentatie waarin de voordelen van de oplossing worden belicht.

- Opstellen calculatie module, wat kunnen onze klanten besparen als ze de NGWP visie implementeren?

Gevraagd wordt een gestructureerde en communicatief vaardige student Network Infrastructure Design of daaraan gelieerd. Kennis van Applicatie Virtualisatie is een pré. Ben jij degene die deze oplossing vorm geeft en onze klanten kosten helpt besparen door te kiezen voor een Next Generation Workplace?

Gebruikte technieken

Microsoft Windows 7 is slechts een besturingssysteem, zonder de bedrijfsspecifieke software is het geen toegevoegde waarde. Met APP-V kunnen we die toegevoegde waarde op een nieuwe manier aanbieden, dusdanig dat we onafhankelijk worden van een specifieke Windows versie. NGWP verandert de manier waarop we de werkplek zien en benaderen.

Omschrijving

Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties. Klantcontact bepaalt het succes van een bedrijf. Als je een goed en duidelijk beeld hebt van je klanten, kun je de sales, service en het klantvertrouwen vergroten. CRM kent een geïntegreerde benadering, waarin elke interactie met de klant door de hele organisatie heen wordt verbeterd. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is beschikbaar als online dienst en kan als zodanig worden beschouwd als een software as a service (SaaS) applicatie.

Omschrijving

Avanade is op zoek naar afstudeerders die praktisch onderzoek willen doen naar de mogelijkheden van Windows Azure in combinatie met Dynamics CRM. Windows Azure is een cloud besturingssysteem dat gebruikt kan worden voor de ontwikkeling, hosting en management van online diensten. De omgeving biedt schaalbare reken- en opslagcapaciteit voor webapplicaties. Microsoft Dynamics CRM is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties.

In jouw onderzoek zul je de nieuwste technologieën toepassen om een prototype van een CRM cloudapplicatie te ontwikkelen. Slechts gelimiteerd door jouw eigen creativiteit mag je jouw voorstel voor een prototype uitwerken. Zo zou jouw prototype de integratiemogelijkheden kunnen aantonen van CRM en interne bedrijfssystemen via Azure. Of ben je uitgedaagd door het virtualiseren van CRM naar de cloud? Misschien werk je nog liever met de nieuwste .NET-features om een CRM-extensie in de cloud te bouwen, zoals een schaalbare Silverlight cloudapplicatie.

Kwalificaties

Door uitgebreide kennis over Microsoft-producten zoals Windows Azure en Dynamics CRM - en de connecties met Microsoft ontwikkelteams – heeft Avanade al veel afstudeerders in staat gesteld om hun ideeën in werkelijkheid te realiseren.

Omschrijving

Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties. Klantcontact bepaalt het succes van een bedrijf. Als je een goed en duidelijk beeld hebt van je klanten, kun je de sales, service en het klantvertrouwen vergroten. CRM kent een geïntegreerde benadering, waarin elke interactie met de klant door de hele organisatie heen wordt verbeterd. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is beschikbaar als online dienst en kan als zodanig worden beschouwd als een software as a service (SaaS) applicatie.

Omschrijving

Grote CRM systemen bieden uitdagende kansen voor search experts. Als een bedrijf miljoenen klanten heeft, is het van cruciaal belang dat de juiste klant snel en in één keer juist gevonden wordt. Hindernissen zoals vervuilde data en - soms terechte - duplicaten zijn bij dit soort hoeveelheden eerder regel dan uitzondering. Naast dataschoning kunnen ook state-of-the-art zoektechnieken ingezet worden om medewerkers in staat te stellen snel de juiste klantgegevens te vinden.

Stel je voor dat een call-center agent met een single search box zoekt in verzamelingen met miljoenen personen en bedrijven, waarbij de agent direct op meerdere type velden kan zoeken (voornaam, achternaam, straatnaam, bedrijfsnaam, klantnummer, telefoonnummer, et cetera). Een klant aan de lijn dient zo snel mogelijk gevonden te worden. Hoe vind je het record van "Gebr. Janzen Transporteurs" als de call-center agent heeft gezocht op "gebroeders janssen logistiek"? Hoe vind je het record met een single search box systeem van Jan Klaassen wonend aan de Utrechtsebaan, wanneer er twaalf records van Jan Klaassen in het systeem staan? Zomaar een greep uit vele tientallen scenario's die een call-center agent dagelijks tegenkomt.

Met meer dan honderdmiljoen velden zul je intelligente technieken in moeten zetten om de invoer van de agent goed te interpreteren zodat de juiste klantgegevens snel gevonden worden. Intelligent, omdat het - naast de schaalbaarheid - ook belangrijk is dat zelfs met typefouten en andere invoerfouten het juiste resultaat verkregen wordt. En wanneer zelfs deze uitdaging niet groot genoeg voor je is, kun je ook nog eens kijken naar het combineren van meerdere databases waarbij gekeken wordt naar de mate van gelijkheid van de records (matching).

Kwalificaties

Deins je niet terug voor .NET, goede zoekalgoritmen, SQL Server en CRM 2011? Avanade beschikt over een groot aantal CRM-, BI- en searchexperts die je kunnen helpen om het beste in jezelf naar boven te halen. Afhankelijk van jouw wensen kan de opdracht meer praktisch of wetenschappelijk ingestoken worden. Kom jij laten zien dat je het in je hebt om wetenschappelijk onderzoek te doen naar schaalbare en intelligente zoeksystemen of een werkend prototype te bouwen?

Omschrijving

Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties. Klantcontact bepaalt het succes van een bedrijf. Als je een goed en duidelijk beeld hebt van je klanten, kun je de sales, service en het klantvertrouwen vergroten. CRM kent een geïntegreerde benadering, waarin elke interactie met de klant door de hele organisatie heen wordt verbeterd. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is beschikbaar als online dienst en kan als zodanig worden beschouwd als een software as a service (SaaS) applicatie.

Omschrijving

Avanade is op zoek naar afstudeerders die praktisch onderzoek willen doen naar de mogelijkheden van Windows Azure in combinatie met Dynamics CRM. Windows Azure is een cloud besturingssysteem dat gebruikt kan worden voor de ontwikkeling, hosting en management van online diensten. De omgeving biedt schaalbare reken- en opslagcapaciteit voor webapplicaties. Microsoft Dynamics CRM is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM draait traditioneel op drie verschillende manieren: on-premise (lokaal na een investering in de benodigde apparatuur), CRM Online (een beperkt uitbreidbare online omgeving van Microsoft) of hosted CRM (een third-party online omgeving met uitbreidbaarheid binnen de grenzen van de derde partij). Met de komst van Windows Azure kan hier een uitdagende vierde mogelijkheid aan toegevoegd worden die volledige uitbreidbaarheid biedt in een cloudoplossing.

Kwalificaties

Aan de hand van een uitdagende business case die voldoende ruimte laat voor eigen inbreng, ga je in jouw onderzoek op zoek naar de virtualisatiemogelijkheden van CRM in de cloud. Hiervoor zijn diverse mogelijkheden denkbaar. Het Windows Azure platform biedt diensten zoals Live Services, SQL Azure, AppFabric en Dynamics CRM Services. De laatstgenoemde dienst stelt je in staat om een CRM-cloudapplicatie te bouwen. Een andere optie is het gebruik van de Windows Azure Hypervisor, een technologie die gebruik maakt van Windows Server 2008 en een aangepaste versie van Hyper-V. Deel jij ons enthousiasme van innovatieve applicaties die overal ter wereld onder extreme piekbelastingen kunnen presteren? Onze experts helpen jou graag om dit enthousiasme om te zetten in een concreet resultaat!

Omschrijving

Collaboration

Collaboration (samenwerking) is hot: digitaal samenwerken met collega’s, delen van documenten en andere vormen van content, laagdrempelig inregelen van eenvoudige bedrijfsprocessen, snel en gemakkelijk publiceren van gecreëerde content zijn allemaal voorbeelden van functionaliteit die hiervoor nodig is. Met SharePoint heeft Microsoft al bijna 10 jaar een product in haar portfolio wat hier volledig op toegespitst is. De nieuwe versie biedt als nooit tevoren een rijke gebruikerservaring, een robuuste ontwikkelomgeving en alle schaalbaarheidsaspecten die voor een enterprise platform nodig zijn.

Advanced software engineering

Het onderzoeksgebied advanced software engineering omvat een aantal brede onderwerpen die voor Avanade zeer relevant zijn: (automated) testing, distributed computing, enterprise application integration (EAI), design patterns & practices, maar ook application lifecycle management (ALM), security en architectuur.

Omschrijving

De wereld van zoekmachines is nog lang niet uitontwikkeld: de bekende search sites die het hele internet doorzoeken kent iedereen, maar een goed zoekalgoritme is geen garantie voor goede resultaten. De inhoud die je zoekt kan worden geoptimaliseerd om zo goed mogelijk gevonden te worden, zowel op het internet – waarbij men spreekt over SEO ofwel Search Engine Optimization – maar ook binnen de grenzen van de firewall.

Ook wordt lang niet alleen gezocht naar ongestructureerde informatie, maar wordt ook meer en meer gezocht in gestructureerde data en de combinatie van deze twee.

Enkele voorbeelden:

- Expert finding: wie is binnen een bedrijf een expert om een vraag te beantwoorden, en welk “bewijs” kan daarvoor geleverd worden?

- Business intelligence: hoe kan een enterprise search applicatie gecombineerd worden met andere analyse- en informatiesystemen om de beslissingskwaliteit voor haar gebruikers te verbeteren?

- Hoe kan je zoekresultaten voor uiteenlopende bronnen dusdanig combineren en presenteren dat deze een rijke interacit met de gebruiker bevordert?

Dit is maar een korte opsomming van mogelijkheden; de sky is the limit als het gaat om dergelijke toepassingen! Aan de hand van je interesse kunnen de opdracht naar wens meer praktisch of meer wetenschappelijk insteken.

Kwalificaties

Het belangrijkste product is Microsoft FAST Search Server 2010 for SharePoint. Dit product combineert de kracht van Microsoft SharePoint met de ongekende mogelijkheden van FAST, om onder andere relevantie en context van de resultaten direct en visueel onderbouwd weer te geven.

Omschrijving

Collaboration

Collaboration (samenwerking) is hot: digitaal samenwerken met collega’s, delen van documenten en andere vormen van content, laagdrempelig inregelen van eenvoudige bedrijfsprocessen, snel en gemakkelijk publiceren van gecreëerde content zijn allemaal voorbeelden van functionaliteit die hiervoor nodig is. Met SharePoint heeft Microsoft al bijna 10 jaar een product in haar portfolio wat hier volledig op toegespitst is. De nieuwe versie biedt als nooit tevoren een rijke gebruikerservaring, een robuuste ontwikkelomgeving en alle schaalbaarheidsaspecten die voor een enterprise platform nodig zijn.

Advanced software engineering

Het onderzoeksgebied advanced software engineering omvat een aantal brede onderwerpen die voor Avanade zeer relevant zijn: (automated) testing, distributed computing, enterprise application integration (EAI), design patterns & practices, maar ook application lifecycle management (ALM), security en architectuur.

Omschrijving

De wereld van zoekmachines is nog lang niet uitontwikkeld: de bekende search sites die het hele internet doorzoeken kent iedereen, maar een goed zoekalgoritme is geen garantie voor goede resultaten. De inhoud die je zoekt kan worden geoptimaliseerd om zo goed mogelijk gevonden te worden, zowel op het internet – waarbij men spreekt over SEO ofwel Search Engine Optimization – maar ook binnen de grenzen van de firewall.

Ook wordt lang niet alleen gezocht naar ongestructureerde informatie, maar wordt ook meer en meer gezocht in gestructureerde data en de combinatie van deze twee.

Enkele voorbeelden:

- Expert finding: wie is binnen een bedrijf een expert om een vraag te beantwoorden, en welk “bewijs” kan daarvoor geleverd worden?

- Business intelligence: hoe kan een enterprise search applicatie gecombineerd worden met andere analyse- en informatiesystemen om de beslissingskwaliteit voor haar gebruikers te verbeteren?

- Hoe kan je zoekresultaten voor uiteenlopende bronnen dusdanig combineren en presenteren dat deze een rijke interacit met de gebruiker bevordert?

Dit is maar een korte opsomming van mogelijkheden; de sky is the limit als het gaat om dergelijke toepassingen! Aan de hand van je interesse kunnen de opdracht naar wens meer praktisch of meer wetenschappelijk insteken.

Kwalificaties

Het belangrijkste product is Microsoft FAST Search Server 2010 for SharePoint. Dit product combineert de kracht van Microsoft SharePoint met de ongekende mogelijkheden van FAST, om onder andere relevantie en context van de resultaten direct en visueel onderbouwd weer te geven.

The Business Manager for North America Sales, Marketing and Alliance will provide support to the Sales, Marketing and Alliances teams and North America OU Business Development by defining and driving the “rhythm of the business” throughout the fiscal year, including leadership meetings, business reviews, , and supporting communications strategy and sales leadership development and training. He/she will help create and drive strategic activities and projects as defined by the Sales, Marketing and Alliances Executive, collaborating with global S&M team as appropriate. Specific responsibilities will include headcount management and recruiting coordination, budget and reporting management in coordination with sales ops and finance, employee engagement in coordination with HR, and most importantly special sales projects and programs.

This role is part of the Americas Business Management and Integration team and, in turn, part of a global team of Business Managers; he/she would be expected to contribute to discussions and provide useful materials, templates, and tools as part of the role.

While some of the work in this role is establishing and ensuring adherence to a regular rhythm, the remaining time is spent on driving complex special projects that require the person to balance multiple inputs and facilitate sometimes difficult discussions among stakeholders, all while ensuring the project stays on budget and on time.

For both the regular rhythm and the special projects, a fairly deep knowledge of Avanade’s business is necessary, as is the ability to simultaneously manage multiple projects for multiple stakeholders.

Qualifications

- 7-10 years of experience in a sales or sales related role in the services industry

- University degree required; advance degree preferred

- Proven ability to coordinate complicated processes and work cross-functionally

- Extremely strong communication skills

- Ability to relate to employees at multiple levels of the organization and comfort with driving conversations with people from all walks of the business

- Ability to team with the North Americas Executive and Operating Committees as well as SMEs across their leadership teams

- Curiosity in a variety of topics; and a team attitude as demonstrated by a willingness to “dig in” on issues – even those that might be considered outside the natural scope of the role

- Comfort with a role that has influence without authority

- Ability to balance multiple opinions while also forming and sharing his/her own view and sharing his/her insights

- Ability to set an example of Avanade core values and champion those values with employees across all levels of the organization

- Defining and driving the rhythm of the business for the Sales, Marketing and Alliances and OU Business Development Organizations.

This is done in collaboration with the key executives and involves (but is not limited to): defining the goals of the team and designing a rhythm of meetings, calls, and other communications that will allow the leader to meet these team goals; driving the schedule for these regular sessions and owning the creation and archiving of supporting materials; program managing action items including assigning actions, tracking progress, providing regular updates to key executives and flagging actions that need escalation; and connecting the teams’ rhythms with the over-arching rhythm of the North America business. The OU Business Development team reports into the OUs and manages their business accordingly; the Business Manager will coordinate S&M activities that align with OU Business Development.

- Defining complementary communications plans for the Sales, Marketing and Alliances team and executing those plans as appropriate. From a communications perspective, this is about both strategy and execution. The Business Manager will work with the NA Communications lead to develop a plan and facilitate the execution of a plan; activities may involve writing/editing mails, coordinating recorded video messages, creating/editing PowerPoint materials, etc. As with other activities relating to S&M, the business manager will need to work with the OU Business Development to coordinate efforts as appropriate.

- Driving meetings and training. In addition to serving as “host” for the Sales, Marketing and Alliances team calls and meetings, the Business Manager will be called upon to collaborate with executives on the content of the meeting and then drive the agenda for all team in-person meetings/training, collaborating with the BMI team as needed for support (esp. the NA meeting manager, who will coordinate logistics of these meetings). This activity will also include working with OU Business Development teams as appropriate.

- Coordinating with Company Peers.

Most of the projects the Business Manager will undertake will, at some level, involve coordinating with other teams, whether it is within North America or at the company (global) level. It is critical that the Business Manager anticipate these interactions, build in appropriate time and process to incorporate their feedback, and ensure consistency as appropriate.

- Special Projects. Though normally reserved as a “catch-all”, this piece of the job can, at times, dominate the role. The NA Sales, Marketing ad Alliances Executive will engage the business manager to facilitate or drive special projects in support of business development, sales and marketing. For example, the Business Manager may be called upon to participate in a cross-functional team to evaluate and then execute a corporate acquisition. He/she might be asked to drive a restructuring of a major business organization or re-architect a key business process. Thus, the right person for this role is someone who will dive into a project without hesitation and who can find the right “sources” and subject matter experts with minimal direction from the executives.

Omschrijving

Technical infrastructure

TI (technical infrastructure) staat binnen Avanade ook wel bekend als SE ofwel System Engineering. TI (of SE) betreft alles wat te maken heeft met infrastructuur: inrichten en beheren van werkplekken, server farms en complete data centers.

Omschrijving

Bij bedrijven is in de loop van tijd een complex IT landschap ontstaan. Vanuit de business wordt geacht dat dit IT landschap – gegeven de grote investeringen – schaalbaar, flexibel en beschikbaar is. De praktijk wijst vaak anders uit.

Binnen Avanade gaan we deze uitdaging te lijf met de “Elastic Datacenter” solution. Elastic Datacenter heeft tot doel de IT infrastructuur zo flexibel mogelijk op te zetten zodat deze aan de eisen en wensen van de business kan voldoen, nu en in de toekomst. De oplossing bestaat uit een virtualisatieplatform op basis van Hyper-V R2 in combinatie met verschillende beheer tools: System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2007 R2 en System Center Operations Manager 2007 R2.

De volgende stap is het automatiseren van verschillende stappen binnen deze oplossing. Denk hierbij aan terugkerende taken, de zogeheten ‘runbooks’. Door deze te automatiseren wordt juiste uitvoering gegarandeerd, fouten tot een minimum beperkt en de benodigde inspanning verkleind. De System Center vNext producten kunnen hierbij ingezet worden. Wij zijn op zoek naar een ambitieuze afstudeerder die het een uitdaging vindt om de lijnen uit te zetten voor deze essentiële en strategische uitbreiding.

Kwalificaties

De opdracht bestaat uit:

- Onderzoek naar de inzet van System Center producten binnen de Elastic Datacenter oplossing.

- Opstellen van herbruikbare templates en installatie handleidingen van diverse System Center producten.

- Opstellen van een sales presentatie waarin de voordelen van de oplossing worden belicht.

- Opstellen van een calculatie module, wat kunnen onze klanten besparen als ze de Elastic Datacenter visie implementeren?

Veel van de benodigde informatie is in ruwe vorm aanwezig, met name aan technologie kant. Belangrijk is dat jij de beschikbare kennis samen met je eigen onderzoek naar een concrete oplossing kan omvormen. We zoeken een gestructureerd werkende, communicatief vaardige student Network Infrastructure Design (of soortgelijk). Kennis van Virtualisatie, één of meerdere System Center Producten en run books is een pré. Ben jij degene die deze oplossing vorm geeft en onze klanten kosten helpt besparen door te kiezen voor een Elastic Datacenter?

Gebruikte technieken

Microsoft System Center Suite is een totaaloplossing gericht op het controleren en beheren van een (complexe) IT infrastructuur. Met de komst van de System Center vNext producten krijgen bedrijven de mogelijkheid om hun IT infrastructuur als zogenaamde ‘Private Cloud’ aan te bieden.

Omschrijving

Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties. Klantcontact bepaalt het succes van een bedrijf. Als je een goed en duidelijk beeld hebt van je klanten, kun je de sales, service en het klantvertrouwen vergroten. CRM kent een geïntegreerde benadering, waarin elke interactie met de klant door de hele organisatie heen wordt verbeterd. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is beschikbaar als online dienst en kan als zodanig worden beschouwd als een software as a service (SaaS) applicatie.

Omschrijving

Avanade is op zoek naar afstudeerders die praktisch onderzoek willen doen naar de mogelijkheden van Windows Azure in combinatie met Dynamics CRM. Windows Azure is een cloud besturingssysteem dat gebruikt kan worden voor de ontwikkeling, hosting en management van online diensten. De omgeving biedt schaalbare reken- en opslagcapaciteit voor webapplicaties. Microsoft Dynamics CRM is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM draait traditioneel op drie verschillende manieren: on-premise (lokaal na een investering in de benodigde apparatuur), CRM Online (een beperkt uitbreidbare online omgeving van Microsoft) of hosted CRM (een third-party online omgeving met uitbreidbaarheid binnen de grenzen van de derde partij). Met de komst van Windows Azure kan hier een uitdagende vierde mogelijkheid aan toegevoegd worden die volledige uitbreidbaarheid biedt in een cloudoplossing.

Kwalificaties

Aan de hand van een uitdagende business case die voldoende ruimte laat voor eigen inbreng, ga je in jouw onderzoek op zoek naar de virtualisatiemogelijkheden van CRM in de cloud. Hiervoor zijn diverse mogelijkheden denkbaar. Het Windows Azure platform biedt diensten zoals Live Services, SQL Azure, AppFabric en Dynamics CRM Services. De laatstgenoemde dienst stelt je in staat om een CRM-cloudapplicatie te bouwen. Een andere optie is het gebruik van de Windows Azure Hypervisor, een technologie die gebruik maakt van Windows Server 2008 en een aangepaste versie van Hyper-V. Deel jij ons enthousiasme van innovatieve applicaties die overal ter wereld onder extreme piekbelastingen kunnen presteren? Onze experts helpen jou graag om dit enthousiasme om te zetten in een concreet resultaat!

Omschrijving

Business Intelligence

BI is gericht op het verzamelen en analyseren van data over klanten, bedrijfsprocessen en relaties en maakt deze inzichtelijk teneinde informatie te verkrijgen die trend-analyses en operationele beslissingen ondersteunen. Het onderzoeksgebied BI omvat dus zowel een technologisch- als een businessperspectief. De 4 kernstappen zijn het verzamelen, omvormen, analyseren en presenteren van informatie. Avanade maakt hiervoor voornamelijk gebruik van de Microsoft SQL Server productlijn.

Advanced software engineering

Het onderzoeksgebied advanced software engineering omvat een aantal brede onderwerpen die voor Avanade zeer relevant zijn: (automated) testing, distributed computing, enterprise application integration (EAI), design patterns & practices, maar ook application lifecycle management (ALM), security en architectuur.

Avanade ontwerpt en bouwt voor veel bedrijven BI oplossingen waarbij data vanuit één of meerdere bronsystemen wordt geïntegreerd en geconsolideerd. Avanade ziet een trend dat de hoeveelheid data die door bedrijven wordt vastgelegd exponentieel groeit, waardoor het steeds moeilijker wordt om inzicht te krijgen in de kwaliteit van de data (Data Quality). Deze moet hoog genoeg zijn voor de klant om betrouwbare trendanalyses en operationele beslissingen te maken. Betere data leidt immers tot betere beslissingen!
Avanade is op zoek naar een enthousiaste student die een oplossing ontwikkelt, die Data Quality kwantificeert, beheerst en op een gebruiksvriendelijke manier inzichtelijk maakt voor de klant. De oplossing faciliteert hergebruik van business-rules en maakt het mogelijk om verschillende typen bronsystemen (zoals databases, text files, spreadsheet e.d.) te controleren op Data Quality.
De resultaten van de controles kunnen gegroepeerd, gesegmenteerd en geaggregeerd worden, al naar gelang de wensen van de eindgebruiker. Zo zal een integratie specialist resultaten willen zien die hem iets vertellen over de consistentie van de data over meerdere bronsystemen, terwijl de klant zich meer zal richten op de kwaliteit specifieke data objecten.
Indien de oplossing goed werkt is het waarschijnlijk dat Avanade deze zal inzetten bij haar grotere klanten! Je voert de opdracht daarom ook uit onder begeleiding van een expert op het gebied van Business Intelligence en Data Quality.

Kwalificaties

De opdracht maakt gebruik van Microsoft Data Quality Services (DQS) dat recent is toegevoegd aan de nieuwe versie van Microsoft SQL Server genaamd ‘Denali’. De student onderzoekt de mogelijkheden hiervan en bouwt zelf componenten indien nodig. Visualisatie zal door middel van standaard Microsoft oplossingen (bijvoorbeeld SharePoint) worden geïmplementeerd.

Achtergrond: Data Quality

Data Quality is het percentage van data binnen een bronsysteem dat zich conformeert aan business-rules. Een simpel voorbeeld: “elk adres binnen de Avanade klantendatabase moet een postcode hebben”.
Controles op Data Quality worden onderverdeeld in verschillende categorieën:

-Nauwkeurigheid

-Correctheid

-Compleetheid

-Relevantie

-Consistentie

Omschrijving

Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties. Klantcontact bepaalt het succes van een bedrijf. Als je een goed en duidelijk beeld hebt van je klanten, kun je de sales, service en het klantvertrouwen vergroten. CRM kent een geïntegreerde benadering, waarin elke interactie met de klant door de hele organisatie heen wordt verbeterd. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is beschikbaar als online dienst en kan als zodanig worden beschouwd als een software as a service (SaaS) applicatie.

Omschrijving

Contact Centers hebben in veel gevallen te maken met een grote diversiteit aan Line of Business applicaties. Variërend van 25 jaar oude legacy applicaties tot moderne Silverlight applicaties. De klant benadering binnen Contact Centers vraagt echter om een efficiënte IT afhandeling om maximale aandacht aan de klant te kunnen geven.

Microsoft User Interface Integration in combinatie met Dynamics CRM 2011 biedt een framework om de diverse applicaties te integreren zodat Contact Centers zich op de klant kunnen concentreren. Een uniek aspect van deze tools is dat ze zowel On Premise als een SaaS uitrol ondersteunen.

Kwalificaties

Heb jij affiniteit met CRM, telefonie en contact centers? Wil jij een prototype of demo-omgeving bouwen waarin een Integrated Contact Center tot leven komt in een SaaS omgeving? Ben je geïnteresseerd en gemotiveerd om de aspecten van Legacy Integratie in een moderne SaaS omgeving te onderzoeken?

Omschrijving

Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties. Klantcontact bepaalt het succes van een bedrijf. Als je een goed en duidelijk beeld hebt van je klanten, kun je de sales, service en het klantvertrouwen vergroten. CRM kent een geïntegreerde benadering, waarin elke interactie met de klant door de hele organisatie heen wordt verbeterd. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is beschikbaar als online dienst en kan als zodanig worden beschouwd als een software as a service (SaaS) applicatie.

Omschrijving

Contact Centers hebben in veel gevallen te maken met een grote diversiteit aan Line of Business applicaties. Variërend van 25 jaar oude legacy applicaties tot moderne Silverlight applicaties. De klant benadering binnen Contact Centers vraagt echter om een efficiënte IT afhandeling om maximale aandacht aan de klant te kunnen geven.

Microsoft User Interface Integration in combinatie met Dynamics CRM 2011 biedt een framework om de diverse applicaties te integreren zodat Contact Centers zich op de klant kunnen concentreren. Een uniek aspect van deze tools is dat ze zowel On Premise als een SaaS uitrol ondersteunen.

Kwalificaties

Heb jij affiniteit met CRM, telefonie en contact centers? Wil jij een prototype of demo-omgeving bouwen waarin een Integrated Contact Center tot leven komt in een SaaS omgeving? Ben je geïnteresseerd en gemotiveerd om de aspecten van Legacy Integratie in een moderne SaaS omgeving te onderzoeken?

Omschrijving

Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties. Klantcontact bepaalt het succes van een bedrijf. Als je een goed en duidelijk beeld hebt van je klanten, kun je de sales, service en het klantvertrouwen vergroten. CRM kent een geïntegreerde benadering, waarin elke interactie met de klant door de hele organisatie heen wordt verbeterd. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is beschikbaar als online dienst en kan als zodanig worden beschouwd als een software as a service (SaaS) applicatie.

Omschrijving

Avanade is op zoek naar afstudeerders die praktisch onderzoek willen doen naar de mogelijkheden van Windows Azure in combinatie met Dynamics CRM. Windows Azure is een cloud besturingssysteem dat gebruikt kan worden voor de ontwikkeling, hosting en management van online diensten. De omgeving biedt schaalbare reken- en opslagcapaciteit voor webapplicaties. Microsoft Dynamics CRM is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties.

In jouw onderzoek zul je de nieuwste technologieën toepassen om een prototype van een CRM cloudapplicatie te ontwikkelen. Slechts gelimiteerd door jouw eigen creativiteit mag je jouw voorstel voor een prototype uitwerken. Zo zou jouw prototype de integratiemogelijkheden kunnen aantonen van CRM en interne bedrijfssystemen via Azure. Of ben je uitgedaagd door het virtualiseren van CRM naar de cloud? Misschien werk je nog liever met de nieuwste .NET-features om een CRM-extensie in de cloud te bouwen, zoals een schaalbare Silverlight cloudapplicatie.

Kwalificaties

Omschrijving

Collaboration

Collaboration (samenwerking) is hot: digitaal samenwerken met collega’s, delen van documenten en andere vormen van content, laagdrempelig inregelen van eenvoudige bedrijfsprocessen, snel en gemakkelijk publiceren van gecreëerde content zijn allemaal voorbeelden van functionaliteit die hiervoor nodig is. Met SharePoint heeft Microsoft al bijna 10 jaar een product in haar portfolio wat hier volledig op toegespitst is. De nieuwe versie biedt als nooit tevoren een rijke gebruikerservaring, een robuuste ontwikkelomgeving en alle schaalbaarheidsaspecten die voor een enterprise platform nodig zijn.

Advanced software engineering

Het onderzoeksgebied advanced software engineering omvat een aantal brede onderwerpen die voor Avanade zeer relevant zijn: (automated) testing, distributed computing, enterprise application integration (EAI), design patterns & practices, maar ook application lifecycle management (ALM), security en architectuur.

Omschrijving

Nu informatiesystemen vaak een gemeengoed zijn geworden in organisaties wordt er in veel gevallen gekeken naar de volgende stap in automatisering; namelijk het automatiseren van de bedrijfsprocessen.

Bedrijfsprocessen raken veelal meerdere medewerkers en informatiesystemen en betreffen vaak handmatige acties. Het (deels) automatiseren van de stappen en het bewaken en aansturen van de voortgang kan veel voordelen opleveren. Zeker in een tijd dat er van organisaties transparantie, inzicht en efficiëntie wordt vereist.

Bedrijfsprocessen zijn aan de ene kant vaak uniek voor het bedrijf, maar delen aan de andere kant ook overeenkomsten met andere processen (ook bij andere bedrijven). Avanade is op zoek naar deze gemene delers en wil dit vertalen in technologie keuzes.

Avanade is op zoek naar een stagiair die het leuk vindt om verschillende technieken en systemen met elkaar te vergelijken en een selectiematrix op te stellen die het mogelijk maakt een “best-fit” oplossing op een gefundeerde manier te selecteren.

Kwalificaties

Omschrijving

Business Intelligence

BI is gericht op het verzamelen en analyseren van data over klanten, bedrijfsprocessen en relaties en maakt deze inzichtelijk teneinde informatie te verkrijgen die trend-analyses en operationele beslissingen ondersteunen. Het onderzoeksgebied BI omvat dus zowel een technologisch- als een businessperspectief. De 4 kernstappen zijn het verzamelen, omvormen, analyseren en presenteren van informatie. Avanade maakt hiervoor voornamelijk gebruik van de Microsoft SQL Server productlijn.

Advanced software engineering

Het onderzoeksgebied advanced software engineering omvat een aantal brede onderwerpen die voor Avanade zeer relevant zijn: (automated) testing, distributed computing, enterprise application integration (EAI), design patterns & practices, maar ook application lifecycle management (ALM), security en architectuur.

Avanade ontwerpt en bouwt voor veel bedrijven BI oplossingen waarbij data vanuit één of meerdere bronsystemen wordt geïntegreerd en geconsolideerd. Avanade ziet een trend dat de hoeveelheid data die door bedrijven wordt vastgelegd exponentieel groeit, waardoor het steeds moeilijker wordt om inzicht te krijgen in de kwaliteit van de data (Data Quality). Deze moet hoog genoeg zijn voor de klant om betrouwbare trendanalyses en operationele beslissingen te maken. Betere data leidt immers tot betere beslissingen!
Avanade is op zoek naar een enthousiaste student die een oplossing ontwikkelt, die Data Quality kwantificeert, beheerst en op een gebruiksvriendelijke manier inzichtelijk maakt voor de klant. De oplossing faciliteert hergebruik van business-rules en maakt het mogelijk om verschillende typen bronsystemen (zoals databases, text files, spreadsheet e.d.) te controleren op Data Quality.
De resultaten van de controles kunnen gegroepeerd, gesegmenteerd en geaggregeerd worden, al naar gelang de wensen van de eindgebruiker. Zo zal een integratie specialist resultaten willen zien die hem iets vertellen over de consistentie van de data over meerdere bronsystemen, terwijl de klant zich meer zal richten op de kwaliteit specifieke data objecten.
Indien de oplossing goed werkt is het waarschijnlijk dat Avanade deze zal inzetten bij haar grotere klanten! Je voert de opdracht daarom ook uit onder begeleiding van een expert op het gebied van Business Intelligence en Data Quality.

Kwalificaties

De opdracht maakt gebruik van Microsoft Data Quality Services (DQS) dat recent is toegevoegd aan de nieuwe versie van Microsoft SQL Server genaamd ‘Denali’. De student onderzoekt de mogelijkheden hiervan en bouwt zelf componenten indien nodig. Visualisatie zal door middel van standaard Microsoft oplossingen (bijvoorbeeld SharePoint) worden geïmplementeerd.

Achtergrond: Data Quality

Data Quality is het percentage van data binnen een bronsysteem dat zich conformeert aan business-rules. Een simpel voorbeeld: “elk adres binnen de Avanade klantendatabase moet een postcode hebben”.
Controles op Data Quality worden onderverdeeld in verschillende categorieën:

-Nauwkeurigheid

-Correctheid

-Compleetheid

-Relevantie

-Consistentie

Omschrijving

Collaboration

Collaboration (samenwerking) is hot: digitaal samenwerken met collega’s, delen van documenten en andere vormen van content, laagdrempelig inregelen van eenvoudige bedrijfsprocessen, snel en gemakkelijk publiceren van gecreëerde content zijn allemaal voorbeelden van functionaliteit die hiervoor nodig is. Met SharePoint heeft Microsoft al bijna 10 jaar een product in haar portfolio wat hier volledig op toegespitst is. De nieuwe versie biedt als nooit tevoren een rijke gebruikerservaring, een robuuste ontwikkelomgeving en alle schaalbaarheidsaspecten die voor een enterprise platform nodig zijn.

Advanced software engineering

Het onderzoeksgebied advanced software engineering omvat een aantal brede onderwerpen die voor Avanade zeer relevant zijn: (automated) testing, distributed computing, enterprise application integration (EAI), design patterns & practices, maar ook application lifecycle management (ALM), security en architectuur.

Omschrijving

Nu informatiesystemen vaak een gemeengoed zijn geworden in organisaties wordt er in veel gevallen gekeken naar de volgende stap in automatisering; namelijk het automatiseren van de bedrijfsprocessen.

Bedrijfsprocessen raken veelal meerdere medewerkers en informatiesystemen en betreffen vaak handmatige acties. Het (deels) automatiseren van de stappen en het bewaken en aansturen van de voortgang kan veel voordelen opleveren. Zeker in een tijd dat er van organisaties transparantie, inzicht en efficiëntie wordt vereist.

Bedrijfsprocessen zijn aan de ene kant vaak uniek voor het bedrijf, maar delen aan de andere kant ook overeenkomsten met andere processen (ook bij andere bedrijven). Avanade is op zoek naar deze gemene delers en wil dit vertalen in technologie keuzes.

Avanade is op zoek naar een stagiair die het leuk vindt om verschillende technieken en systemen met elkaar te vergelijken en een selectiematrix op te stellen die het mogelijk maakt een “best-fit” oplossing op een gefundeerde manier te selecteren.

Kwalificaties

Gebruikte technieken

Windows Workflow Foundation, SharePoint 2010, SharePoint Designer, K2 Workflow, Global 360, Nintex.

Omschrijving

Technical infrastructure

TI (technical infrastructure) staat binnen Avanade ook wel bekend als SE ofwel System Engineering. TI (of SE) betreft alles wat te maken heeft met infrastructuur: inrichten en beheren van werkplekken, server farms en complete data centers.

Omschrijving

Bij bedrijven is in de loop van tijd een complex IT landschap ontstaan. Vanuit de business wordt geacht dat dit IT landschap – gegeven de grote investeringen – schaalbaar, flexibel en beschikbaar is. De praktijk wijst vaak anders uit.

Binnen Avanade gaan we deze uitdaging te lijf met de “Elastic Datacenter” solution. Elastic Datacenter heeft tot doel de IT infrastructuur zo flexibel mogelijk op te zetten zodat deze aan de eisen en wensen van de business kan voldoen, nu en in de toekomst. De oplossing bestaat uit een virtualisatieplatform op basis van Hyper-V R2 in combinatie met verschillende beheer tools: System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2007 R2 en System Center Operations Manager 2007 R2.

De volgende stap is het automatiseren van verschillende stappen binnen deze oplossing. Denk hierbij aan terugkerende taken, de zogeheten ‘runbooks’. Door deze te automatiseren wordt juiste uitvoering gegarandeerd, fouten tot een minimum beperkt en de benodigde inspanning verkleind. De System Center vNext producten kunnen hierbij ingezet worden. Wij zijn op zoek naar een ambitieuze afstudeerder die het een uitdaging vindt om de lijnen uit te zetten voor deze essentiële en strategische uitbreiding.

Kwalificaties

De opdracht bestaat uit:

- Onderzoek naar de inzet van System Center producten binnen de Elastic Datacenter oplossing.

- Opstellen van herbruikbare templates en installatie handleidingen van diverse System Center producten.

- Opstellen van een sales presentatie waarin de voordelen van de oplossing worden belicht.

- Opstellen van een calculatie module, wat kunnen onze klanten besparen als ze de Elastic Datacenter visie implementeren?

Veel van de benodigde informatie is in ruwe vorm aanwezig, met name aan technologie kant. Belangrijk is dat jij de beschikbare kennis samen met je eigen onderzoek naar een concrete oplossing kan omvormen. We zoeken een gestructureerd werkende, communicatief vaardige student Network Infrastructure Design (of soortgelijk). Kennis van Virtualisatie, één of meerdere System Center Producten en run books is een pré. Ben jij degene die deze oplossing vorm geeft en onze klanten kosten helpt besparen door te kiezen voor een Elastic Datacenter?

Gebruikte technieken

Microsoft System Center Suite is een totaaloplossing gericht op het controleren en beheren van een (complexe) IT infrastructuur. Met de komst van de System Center vNext producten krijgen bedrijven de mogelijkheid om hun IT infrastructuur als zogenaamde ‘Private Cloud’ aan te bieden.

Omschrijving

Technical infrastructure

TI (technical infrastructure) staat binnen Avanade ook wel bekend als SE ofwel System Engineering. TI (of SE) betreft alles wat te maken heeft met infrastructuur: inrichten en beheren van werkplekken, server farms en complete data centers.

Omschrijving

Een werkplek is één van de meest belangrijke assets van een bedrijf. Deze werkplek geeft hun werknemers toegang tot de systemen en stelt hen in staat hun werk op een juiste en effectieve manier uit te voeren.

De werkplek is momenteel veelal gebaseerd op Windows XP. Helaas wordt ondersteuning op dit platform kostbaar en voldoet het niet meer aan de eisen en wensen van de werknemer. Bedrijven hebben echter moeite met de overstap naar een nieuwe werkplek. Een werkplek is meer dan een installatie van een besturingssysteem. Een werkplek is persoonlijk, kent specifieke applicaties en is bij voorkeur mobiel. Avanade heeft hiervoor een visie ontwikkeld onder de noemer ‘Next Generation WorkPlace’ (NGWP).

NGWP bestaat uit een complete set met een oplossing voor een werkplek transformatie van een verouderd, Windows XP, platform naar een nieuw platform op basis van Windows 7 of Windows 8?!

Kwalificaties

De opdracht omvat een analyse van de markt, waar zijn bedrijven momenteel naar opzoek? Waar zitten verbeterpunten in de huidige trajecten? En wat moet Avanade doen om haar propositie sterk in de markt te kunnen zetten?

De opdracht bestaat uit:

- Onderzoek naar de inzet van de Windows 7, Office 2010, App-V en System Center Configuration Manager producten binnen de Next Generation Workspace oplossing.

- Opstellen van herbruikbare templates, installatie handleidingen van de NGWP producten.

- Opstellen van een sales presentatie waarin de voordelen van de oplossing worden belicht.

- Opstellen calculatie module, wat kunnen onze klanten besparen als ze de NGWP visie implementeren?

Gevraagd wordt een gestructureerde en communicatief vaardige student Network Infrastructure Design of daaraan gelieerd. Kennis van Applicatie Virtualisatie is een pré. Ben jij degene die deze oplossing vorm geeft en onze klanten kosten helpt besparen door te kiezen voor een Next Generation Workplace?

Gebruikte technieken

Microsoft Windows 7 is slechts een besturingssysteem, zonder de bedrijfsspecifieke software is het geen toegevoegde waarde. Met APP-V kunnen we die toegevoegde waarde op een nieuwe manier aanbieden, dusdanig dat we onafhankelijk worden van een specifieke Windows versie. NGWP verandert de manier waarop we de werkplek zien en benaderen.

Omschrijving

Microsoft Dynamics CRM (Customer Relationship Management) is een relatiemanagementsysteem dat faciliteert in het managen en uitvoeren van verschillende type klantinteracties. Door een flexibel onderliggend datamodel is het systeem eenvoudig aanpasbaar en vormt het een stevige basis voor de ontwikkeling van bedrijfsapplicaties. Klantcontact bepaalt het succes van een bedrijf. Als je een goed en duidelijk beeld hebt van je klanten, kun je de sales, service en het klantvertrouwen vergroten. CRM kent een geïntegreerde benadering, waarin elke interactie met de klant door de hele organisatie heen wordt verbeterd. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 is beschikbaar als online dienst en kan als zodanig worden beschouwd als een software as a service (SaaS) applicatie.

Omschrijving

Grote CRM systemen bieden uitdagende kansen voor search experts. Als een bedrijf miljoenen klanten heeft, is het van cruciaal belang dat de juiste klant snel en in één keer juist gevonden wordt. Hindernissen zoals vervuilde data en - soms terechte - duplicaten zijn bij dit soort hoeveelheden eerder regel dan uitzondering. Naast dataschoning kunnen ook state-of-the-art zoektechnieken ingezet worden om medewerkers in staat te stellen snel de juiste klantgegevens te vinden.

Stel je voor dat een call-center agent met een single search box zoekt in verzamelingen met miljoenen personen en bedrijven, waarbij de agent direct op meerdere type velden kan zoeken (voornaam, achternaam, straatnaam, bedrijfsnaam, klantnummer, telefoonnummer, et cetera). Een klant aan de lijn dient zo snel mogelijk gevonden te worden. Hoe vind je het record van "Gebr. Janzen Transporteurs" als de call-center agent heeft gezocht op "gebroeders janssen logistiek"? Hoe vind je het record met een single search box systeem van Jan Klaassen wonend aan de Utrechtsebaan, wanneer er twaalf records van Jan Klaassen in het systeem staan? Zomaar een greep uit vele tientallen scenario's die een call-center agent dagelijks tegenkomt.

Met meer dan honderdmiljoen velden zul je intelligente technieken in moeten zetten om de invoer van de agent goed te interpreteren zodat de juiste klantgegevens snel gevonden worden. Intelligent, omdat het - naast de schaalbaarheid - ook belangrijk is dat zelfs met typefouten en andere invoerfouten het juiste resultaat verkregen wordt. En wanneer zelfs deze uitdaging niet groot genoeg voor je is, kun je ook nog eens kijken naar het combineren van meerdere databases waarbij gekeken wordt naar de mate van gelijkheid van de records (matching).

Kwalificaties

Deins je niet terug voor .NET, goede zoekalgoritmen, SQL Server en CRM 2011? Avanade beschikt over een groot aantal CRM-, BI- en searchexperts die je kunnen helpen om het beste in jezelf naar boven te halen. Afhankelijk van jouw wensen kan de opdracht meer praktisch of wetenschappelijk ingestoken worden. Kom jij laten zien dat je het in je hebt om wetenschappelijk onderzoek te doen naar schaalbare en intelligente zoeksystemen of een werkend prototype te bouwen?
