Launching enterprise mobility platform

Business process management as a practice has proven to delivery enormous value to organizations.  Typically these are attributed to delivering projects more quickly, increase efficiency and transparency of operations, optimize resources utilization, etc…

Mobility for instance complicates the challenges organizations have traditionally faced in terms of managing its distributed workforce such as, managing collaboration across distributed teams, ensuring optimal availability of critical information required to carry out assigned tasks, or managing security of information being distributed, etc…

With improved connectivity and availability of newer mobile devices with richer experiences, organizations are increasingly looking at ways to enable greater level of collaboration between mobile workforce and back-office teams as well as systems to ensure optimal business responsiveness.

Maturity of the business process management capability in an organization is measured not only by how it can cope with changing business needs, but also in terms of how it could  overcome newer challenges partly originating from the evolution in technology as well as from the disruptive trends such as mobility and its impact on the business.

Our application infrastructure BizAPP Studio and AppsOnAzure are designed ground-up to facilitate efficient management of processes spanning distributed and disconnected teams. Solutions developed using our technology is enabled for distributed deployment as well as process aware selective dissipation of information across these deployments using a built-in concept called subscription based multisite (SBM).  Eliminating the bottleneck typically caused by centralized systems, SBM allows distributed sites to work on a localized environment while ensuring data integrity across all of them.

Extending on our SBM capability to manage distributed teams, we have launched our mobile edition of application infrastructure which would enable our customers to effortlessly delivery solutions developed using our technology to their mobile workforce without becoming another information silo to manage.

Organizations can selective distribute either all or specific workflows/processes to their mobile workforce, as well as enforce roles based control over what information would be accessible from these devices and lifetime of these information on those devices, protecting mission critical data. For instance, imagine a field services team which requires dynamic allocation and routing of tasks with real time tracking of tasks, reprioritization and load balancing.

In such instances, having a strong mobility enabled enterprise business management backbone is bound to greatly improve efficiency, reducing cost and improving customer satisfaction.

Further, leveraging our unique application virtualization technology combined with the new mobility infrastructure, organizations can enable mobility on any application which is currently used by the workforce and deployed OnPremise or in the cloud. For instance, imagine a sales team which is currently using Siebel, or Microsoft Dynamics to manage their lead-to-order process, with a simple point and click approach organizations can enable their field team to work with these systems while on the move and being disconnected.

To conclude, enterprises would have to embrace mobility, but the high costs associated and uncertainty involved would be a road blocker for most organization. AppPoint offers organization a low cost, low risk approach to accelerate their mobility initiative while optimally leveraging investment already made on existing legacy tools and processes, as well as to rapidly develop new mobility enabled custom business applications.
