HP Operations Overhaul, the Cloud

Nascent Payoff for H-P From Its Operations Overhaul - WSJ.com: "Among the changes: H-P has replaced its old sales and human-resources software with easier-to-use, Internet-based programs from Salesforce.com Inc., Workday Inc., and other cloud providers. It has re-engineered its sales force to make it easier to buy technology and services from H-P and its more than 150,000 distribution partners. And it has redesigned its website to recognize PC and mobile visits, as well as adding thousands of consumer products and more video. Over the next five years, H-P aims to quintuple revenue now generated by the site. H-P doesn't disclose precise figures but says its web sales now make up a few percentage points of its total revenue."
