Implementation and using CRM have to bring advantages to the business. The objective of CRM is to optimize profitability, revenue and customer satisfaction. CRM brings quantifiable advantages and effects that show later. CRM information system is modelled on business processes and activities. This article deals with decision about the selection of CRM information system, particular selection criteria, conditions and variants. Keywords: decision, decision making, CRM, CRM information system, conditions, criteria, variants, problem, solution 1 INTRODUCTION The last several years saw the rise of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) as an important business approach. Its objective is to return to the world of personal marketing. The concept itself is relatively simple. Rather than market to a mass of people or firms, market to each customer individually. In this one-to-one approach, information about a customer (e.g., previous purchases, needs, and wants) is used to frame offers that are more likely to be accepted. This approach is made possible by advances in information technology. Remember that CRM is an abbreviation for Customer Relationship Management, not Customer Relationship Marketing. Management is a broader concept than marketing because it covers marketing management, manufacturing management, human resource management, service management, sales management, and research and development management. Thus, CRM requires organizational and business level approaches which are customer centric to doing business rather than a simple marketing strategy.
2 86 The Decision Making about Selection the of CRM Information System CRM involves all of the corporate functions (marketing, manufacturing, customer services, field sales, and field service) required to contact customers directly or indirectly. The term touch points is used in CRM to refer to the many ways in which customers and firms interact. 2 BENEFITS OF CRM INFORMATION SYSTEM The principal benefits of CRM information system are to: - Improve the organization's ability to retain and acquire customers, - Maximize the lifetime value of each customer, - Improve service without increasing cost of service. Some of these benefits can be measured and others cannot. CRM is composed of four continuous processes. Each process provides distinctive benefits to the organization. To obtain all of these benefits, sales, marketing, and service functions need to work together. The benefits are shown in Table 1. Table 1 Benefits of CRM information system [6] Source of benefits Benefits Identification Differentiation Interaction Customization Clean data about Understand customer customer Single Customer View Help sales force Cross selling Cost effective marketing campaign Reduce direct mailing cost Customer satisfaction and loyalty Cost effective customer service Customer satisfaction and loyalty Lower cost of acquisition and retention of customer Maximize share of wallet There are significant business benefits, which accrue from an effective, integrated CRM approach. These include: - Reduced costs (effective and efficient operation), - Increased customer satisfaction (exceeding expectations), - Growth in numbers of customers, - Maximization of opportunities (increased services, referrals, etc.), - Increased access to a source of market and competitor information, - Highlighting poor operational processes, - Long-term profitability and sustainability.
3 Journal of Information, Control and Management Systems, Vol. 6, (2008), No DECISION MAKING Decision-making is the cognitive process leading to the selection of a course of action among alternatives. [7] Every decision-making process produces a final choice. It can be an action or an opinion. It begins when we need to do something but we do not know what. Therefore, decision-making is a reasoning process, which can be rational or irrational, and can be based on explicit assumptions or tacit assumptions. Decision making is defined as: - The cognitive process of reaching a decision. - A position or opinion or judgment reached after consideration - Choosing between alternative courses of action using cognitive processes - memory, thinking, evaluation, etc - The process of mapping the likely consequences of decisions, working out the importance of individual factors, and choosing the best course of action to take. Barriers to good decision-making are: [7] - Hasty - making quick decisions without having much thought, - Narrow - decisions is based on very limited information, - Scattered - our thoughts in making decisions are disconnected or disorganized, - Fuzzy - sometimes, the lack of clarity on important aspects of a decision causes us to overlook certain important considerations. Decision-making process (Figure 1) has eight general phases, which are interlock. These general phases are: [8] 1. Identifying a problem, Problem is a discrepancy (difference) between an existing and a desired state. 2. Identifying decision criteria, The word criteria, is defined as a standard by which something can be judged. A decision criteria, therefore, is the basis of a decision, which outlines the relevant and important factors for a decision. And implicitly, it also defines what is not important. 3. Allocating weights to criteria, The next step in the decision making process is prioritization. Prioritization is achieved by assigning quantitative weights to each criteria element. The weight age defines the relative significance of each element. 4. Developing alternatives, Developing alternatives involves defining the possible alternatives (or choices) that would resolve the problem.
4 88 The Decision Making about Selection the of CRM Information System 5. Analyzing alternatives, Alternatives are rated and analyzed on the basis of the criteria. The rating can be based on a specified scale, say 1 5 etc. Rating may be subjective in nature and thus, may depend on the judgment of the individual(s). 6. Selecting an alternative, Selecting an alternative involves choosing the best alternative, based on the above rating and analysis. Generally implies selecting the alternative with the highest score. 7. Implementing the alternative, Implementing the alternative is putting the decision into action and involves clear communication of the decision to all concerned and obtaining their commitment. 8. Evaluation (of decision effectiveness). Evaluation forms an integral part of any process. Involves evaluation of the outcome based on the desired goal and criteria. Evaluation involves assessing the effectiveness and efficiency of the outcome (or the entire process). In case of any undesired results, each step of the process is carefully reviewed to trace the root causes. Figure 1 Decision-making process [4]
5 Journal of Information, Control and Management Systems, Vol. 6, (2008), No DECISION MAKING ABOUT SELECTION OF CRM INFORMATION SYSTEM 4.1 Problem definition The most important profess of the CRM is the communication. This problem was identified by rigorous analysis. There's the Administration system of communication missing in the company. The solution of this problem is the implementation of effective CRM information system and its main priority is the consolidation of communication processes. The realisation of decision about the selection of CRM information system is needed in this situation. Figure 2 Decision making about the selection of CRM information system
6 90 The Decision Making about Selection the of CRM Information System Communication is central to any successful relationship. In terms of Customer Relationship Management, communication needs to be consistent and high quality; as determined by: [5] - On time, - Focused, - Relevant, - Reliable, - Coherent. Communications must be judged most vitally by the reaction of the receiver. If the reaction is not good then the communication is poor. The information contained in a CRM system allows communication to be directed at the correct audience, in the correct way. The communication system must also encourage and facilitate honest and actionable feedback. Feedback from customers, especially complaints are essential for good organizational performance and ongoing development. Most organizations avoid, discourage and hide from complaints. Complaints are free guidance for improving quality, and free opportunities to increase customer loyalty. 4.2 Decision criteria and conditions The following characteristics are associated with delivery of excellent CRM information system: [5] - Reliability, - Responsiveness, - Accessibility, - Safety, - Courtesy, - Consideration, - Communication, - Recognising the customer and competence. Effective CRM information system with the priority of consolidation of the communication processes must fulfil the following selection criteria: [1] - Openness, i. e. possibility of interface of system to the other information systems, - English and Slovak language version, - Intuitive and "user friendly" control system, - Modularity of system, i. e. the possibility of later repurchasing of followup modules, - Credibility, reliability and adaptability.
7 Journal of Information, Control and Management Systems, Vol. 6, (2008), No In addition to specified criteria, this CRM information system must fulfil these following conditions: - Saving of all important customer information saved in database, - Administration of all communication with customer contacts, - Saving of all realized operations related of any contact in history, - Available for administration of contacts about company employees, - Time management. 4.3 CRM solutions in market (variants) Complete view of CRM systems supplied and used in Slovak market is not easy to show because a lot of small and medium-sized enterprises use their own various systems. Following list include CRM systems, which are supplied as independent solutions or as addition complete company information system (Table 2).

We use quantitative (number of request) or qualitative ways of evaluation these CRM systems. A few years ago, technology vendors had their own specialties. For example, Siebel was in sales force automation, Remedy was in helpdesk systems, Davox was in call center systems, egain was in management, and BroadVision was in the front-end application area. Today, however, there is no specific boundary of vendors. All vendors are trying to expand their products over the entire CRM area. For example, Siebel says it can do everything, Davox moved into customer contact management, and
8 92 The Decision Making about Selection the of CRM Information System BroadVision is trying to integrate backward with ERP. Most of CRM vendors came from two different origins: [6] - Back-End Application Traditional ERP vendors (SAP AG, Oracle Corporation, Baan (now Invensys plc), and PeopleSoft) acquire, build, and partner their CRM application for ERP functionality. - Front-End Application Some companies started with front-end solutions such as personal information management system (PIMS). Siebel, BroadVision, and Remedy are in this category. Table 3 lists some of the major categories and players.

9 Journal of Information, Control and Management Systems, Vol. 6, (2008), No CONCLUSION The present is an era of company loyalty to the customer in order to obtain customer loyalty to the company. Consumers are more knowledgeable than ever before and, because the customer is more knowledgeable, companies must be faster, more agile, and more creative than a few years ago. [6] The Internet allows information to be obtained almost instantaneously. The Internet permits firms to establish a personalized customer experience through online help, purchase referrals, quicker turn-around on customer problems, and quicker feedback about customer suggestions, concerns, and questions. CRM is very hard to implement throughout a company. The IT department needs extensive infrastructure and resources to implement CRM databases successfully. Executives must be willing to support the CRM implementation process forever because CRM never ends. REFERENCES [1] CHLEBOVSKÝ, V.: CRM Řízení vztahů se zákazníky. Brno: Computer Press, s.
