Platforms and automation

Scope

• Process analysis and workflow design: who does what, who approves, and by when.
• Portals and forms for submitting and tracking requests.
• Case processing, approval workflows and notifications.
• Document management: registration, classification, versions and search.
• Integration with existing systems through documented interfaces (APIs, application programming interfaces).
• Automation of repetitive administrative tasks with every step logged.

Deliverables

• A process map and rules validated by the client.
• A configured platform with separate test and production environments.
• Integration specifications and their acceptance tests.
• User and administrator manuals.
• Audit logs of the operations carried out.

Deployment options

An off-the-shelf platform configured to your needs, or custom development where justified; on premises, in the cloud or hybrid. The choice follows security, integration, cost, maintenance and exit criteria, with no predetermined brand.

Limits and dependencies

• The platform is only chosen after the requirements analysis.
• Integrations depend on documentation of and access to the existing systems.
• Third-party software remains subject to its manufacturer's licence.
