We will leverage the most valuable functionality of MOSS Enterprise Edition including its portal and search features and its infrastructure for Web Content Management (WCM), business process automation and Business Intelligence (BI).

We automate your routine business processes so your company can focus on your core business. Through linear, branched or event based workflows your business processes can be automated, tracked and sent for approval. Business process data is captured through InfoPath forms and automated through workflows created in SharePoint Designer 2007 or Visual Studio. Common business processes include project tracking, purchase approvals, travel scheduling, expense reporting, sales cycles and asset tracking, trouble ticket tracking. You can choose from our SharePoint-ready workflows or our SharePoint experts will work with you to design workflows that meet your company's needs.

You can leverage the excel and word forms that may already be in use and combine them with the sophisticated forms handling capability of SharePoint list forms. You can reuse the forms templates created with InfoPath, have custom layouts, controls and dialogs attached, and have XML or database linked data to it. For large scale implementation we can deploy forms library via the SharePoint Forms Server integrated into the application.

For enterprise deployment we will design and implement a suitable security schema in order to lock down the business process, workflow and forms to appropriate audiences.
