Business Process Automation.
Overview
Business Process Management (BPM) is getting increased attention
from companies seeking to cut costs and increase productivity. A
BPM solution automates and simplifies information-gathering
tasks, reduces errors and saves time. If your organization uses
SharePoint 2007 today, you already have the ability to automate
business processes with built-in workflow capabilities and
programmable forms such as InfoPath, Form Services and ASP.net
forms. This foundation is also extensible for the enterprise
with custom workflows developed using Visual Studio and Workflow
Foundation. bluLink Solutions provides strategic planning and
custom workflow development services to help you get more from
your SharePoint investment.
