Open Source Consulting
Martin Fink, vice president and chief technology officer for Hewlett-Packard noted in his 2002 book The Business and Economics of Linux and Open Source that "the adoption of open source and Linux has grown tremendously."
Open source doesn't just mean access to the source code. The distribution terms of open-source software must fall within several criteria such as how the software can be redistributed while also maintaining the integrity of the author's source code or how the distribution lisense can not be overly restrictive or discriminate by technology or use.
Thus, the adoption of Open Source tools and applications into business related solutions does provide a number of issues associated with intellectual property, technology, resource management and collaboration.

This is how the Open Source Consulting Group within Kepler Solutions can help. We can communicate to those who need to know within your business the "how-to" in navigating the new set of processes that Open Source brings with it. That is we help identify when an Open Source solution is a viable option and how to manage the effects of mixing open source and non-open source environments within an organization.
Or, if you wish, we can do the navigating for you. Locating and building custom business solutions that fit your specific needs. In putting these Open Source tools and applications that other businesses are using, your business can gain the same competitive edge: bringing Enterprise level power of customization and optimization at lower costs to your business or organization.
Let the Open Source Consulting Group at Kepler Solutions bring together a better understanding of how Open Source software can be built into a working solution for your business. Otherwise, you may never know the full power of the Information Age.
