Oracle Roadmap for Emerging Countries
Cisco International initiative was started with a long term strategic view to add new Cisco selling companies in select emerging countries thereby addressing service provider, public sector, and enterprise customers’ expectations for higher levels of accountability, engagement and global consistency and an extended Cisco sales model and in-country presence to improve customer intimacy and support.
This has its own challenges in terms of country specific localizations and the associated IT systems as the enablers. To give an example, the typical customs clearance timeframe in Brazil is 30 days on an average. This means the goods need to be stored either in a government warehouse or a bonded warehouse. This has its implications during the quarter end. And accordingly the IT systems need to be designed to take care of the regular process and the quarter end process. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
