Global investments in information technologies are constantly growing as the result of quick changes in technologies, globalization process, accelerating pace of life and increase in the importance of information to the modern society. Thus, the latest information technologies and systems are emphasized as one of the most important features of competitive ability of an organisation. As information technologies are getting more and more important in determining the advantage of a company in the business world, CEOs of organisations should pay more attention to implementation of systems that contribute to operational capacity of the entire organisation. In order to ensure success of an organisation, it is important to look for new investment solutions helping companies to develop individualized and differentiated ways of interaction with customers, ensuring their loyalty and allowing to maintain competitiveness in the market. More and more often, customer relationship management systems are chosen to achieve these aims. These systems are applied for business to efficiently manage relations with customers of a company; they help increasing the benefit obtained by every supplier or customer to the maximum and improving the results of the entire activity. Due to the increase in the number of organisations implementing customer relationship management systems (CRM), it is becoming important to study and evaluate these technologies and their influence. This would help to better understand the present problems related with customer relationship management (CRM) systems. Santrauka Šiandienėje visuomenėje, vykstant sparčiai technologijų kaitai, globalizacijos procesui, spartėjant gyvenimo tempui ir didėjant informacijos svarbai, informacinėms technologijoms skiriamos investicijos nuolatos auga visame pasaulyje. Todėl, naujausios informacinės technologijos ir sistemos iškyla kaip vienas iš svarbiausių organizacijos konkurencingumo bruožų. Pastaraisiais metais, mokslinėje literatūroje vis dažniau galima rasti tyrimų pavyzdžių, nagrinėjančių ryšių su klientais valdymo sistemas (CRM) kaip kokybiškai naują informacinę technologiją. Tyrinėjimai šioje srityje leistų geriau suvokti esamas problemas, susijusias su ryšių su klientais valdymo (CRM) sistemomis ir taip užpildyti literatūroje esančią spragą. Straipsnio tikslas – išanalizuoti literatūros, susijusios su ryšių su klientais valdymo sistemomis (CRM), šaltinius, ir, remiantis organizacijų požiūriu, ištirti ir įvertinti ryšių su klientais valdymo sistemos (CRM) taikymo privalumus ir trūkumus. Siekiant įvardinti motyvuojančius faktorius, skatinančius organizacijas diegtis ryšių su klientais valdymo sistemas (CRM), buvo atliktas tyrimas. Pasitelkus anketą buvo apklausti visi ryšių su klientais valdymo sistemos (CRM) ekspertai, dirbantys Lietuvos viešojo judriojo telefono ryšio organizacijose. Remiantis tyrimo rezultatais nustatyta, kad svarbiausi bei reikšmingiausi šioms organizacijoms motyvacijos veiksniai yra: nesugebėjimas sistemiškai kaupti ir analizuoti duomenis (60%), pardavimo galimybių trūkumas (40%), nesugebėjimas tinkamai koordinuoti darbus (40%). Tyrimo metu nustatyta, jog ryšių su klientais valdymo sistemą (CRM) ekspertai įvertino kaip nesudėtingą naudoti (75%). Dažniausiai šią sistemą įsidiegusių organizacijų susiduria su tokiomis problemomis kaip neefektyvus ryšių su klientais valdymo sistemos (CRM) galimybių išnaudojimas, taip pat, šios sistemos neatitikimas organizacijoms poreikiams, trukdantis sėkmingai naudotis įdiegta sistema.Straipsnis anglų kalba.

Advances in computer and information technologies have been utilized by companies all over the world since the 1990s. Corresponding roughly to the same period, global trade has increased dramatically. The opening up of large markets like China and the Eastern Europe contributed to this trend. National companies turned global and had to manage operations in a number of different countries. Companies strived to maintain better customer relationships through CRM programs aimed at managing the flow of information, interacting with the customers, and in the end, formulating individualized offerings for them. Globalization has led to the development of the new notion of Global Customer Relationship Management as opposed to having independent local CRM programs operating in the subsidiaries. This chapter presents the issues facing the implementation of such Global CRM programs and provides the important conceptual frameworks proposed in the literature.

SummaryBackground: Longitudinal biomedical research projects study patients or participants over a course of time. No IT solution is known that can manage study participants, enhance quality of data, support re-contacting of participants, plan study visits, and keep track of informed consent procedures and recruitments that may be subject to change over time.. In business settings management of personal is one of the major aspects of customer relationship management systems (CRMS).Objectives: To evaluate whether CRMS are suitable IT solutions for study participant management in biomedical research.Methods: Three boards of experts in the field of biomedical research were consulted to get an insight into recent IT developments regarding study participant management systems (SPMS). Subsequently, a requirements analysis was performed with stake-holders of a major biomedical research project. The successive suitability evaluation was based on the comparison of the identified requirements with the features of six CRMS.Results: Independently of each other, the interviewed expert boards confirmed that there is no generic IT solution for the management of participants. Sixty-four requirements were identified and prioritized in a requirements analysis. The best CRMS was able to fulfill forty-two of these requirements. The non-fulfilled requirements demand an adaption of the CRMS, consuming time and resources, reducing the update compatibility, the system’s suitability, and the security of the CRMS.Conclusions: A specific solution for the SPMS is favored instead of a generic and commercially-oriented CRMS. Therefore, the development of a small and specific SPMS solution was commenced and is currently on the way to completion.
