Consultancy

Consulting ahead of a possible K2 Black Pearl solution is typically open ended. In our experience, the most important subjects to cover for successful projects are;

• Analysis of the way your organisation operates
• Review the processes you want to automate
• Scoping the solution - analysing the number of users, and amount of work anticipated to flow through the system
• Advising the appropriate use of workflow technology, with existing assets and surrounding integrations to best suit your applications.

Design, Development, Installation & Configuration

• Installation - getting the server software installed and configured correctly
• Configuration - adapting and extending “out of the box” features and functionality to meet your requirements
• Development - building bespoke user interface elements to surface workflow functionality and task information for your users.
• Look and Feel - integrating your corporate branding into the workflow interface - and ensuring a common look and feel throughout your solution.

Training

The key to making the most of business process management solutions is making sure your staff appreciate the benefits it brings them - therefore training in the use of the system is absolutely paramount. We tailor training to suit your needs - with it typically taking the form of;

• Train the trainer - empowering your own staff
• Train the end users - bringing you up to speed quickly
