End-to-end refers to the provision of complex systems or services in a functional form after their development from start to finish.
End-to-end is most common in the IT sector and is used in the planning, implementation and evaluation phases.
End-to-end processing can help optimize business performance and efficiency by eliminating middlemen.
When it comes to complex services or systems, complex arrangements are often cost effective.
Logistics, where service providers take care of inventory management, storage and distribution, is an example of an integrated approach in non-IT industries.
