Press Release Summary = Project-based ERP Visibility Wins Profile

Press Release Body = According to Stephen Carson, Executive Vice-President of
Visibility Corporation, \"The .net workflow system enforces the process. This allows
companies to improve and standardize daily functions across the company without
burdensome manual administration. This provides employees visibility into the status
of \"in-process\" tasks, making it easier for them to execute their tasks
effectively.\"

According to manufacturing journalist, Thomas R. Cutler, in the June issue of
Industry 2.0, many difficulties in business process management relate to \"offsystem\"
manual tasks, such as notification, investigation, authorization, and follow up. The
ability to automate business process through the use of workflow templates make it
easier to control and administer stated processes through the necessary steps. A
flow or process may have been documented outside of an ERP (Enterprise Resource
Planning) system, where there is no formal way to ensure compliance. In the past,
paper documents and unmanaged email have provided the best solutions, but with no
controls to ensure visibility and compliance, the value was limited.

In \"make-to-stock\" environment, business processes can remain stable and unchanged
for many years, or until a new product line is developed. In a \"to-order\"
environment business processes are significantly influenced by the nature of the
order or contract being executed. Not only can each order or contract involve
different type of process, but the value of contracts can have a significant
influence. Automating business processes streamlines business operations thus
minimizing overhead costs and forcing disciplines based on best practices. Together
this helps preserve the integrity of the business data and ensures the users of the
ERP system adhere to the process that are set by the business.


Process compliance assures the best value for the business efforts, helps to contain
costs and maintain the value of corporate data. Carson notes, \"Process flow mapping
and tracking of business events guarantees that employees are automatically notified
when important events occur, or when a transaction requires input. This ensures that
cycle times of critical and complex business process are optimized.\"
