Process Automation for SharePoint without ‘Consultant Overhead’ Costs
------------------------------------------------------------------------

In a recent IDG survey, 62% of CIOs said that Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (SharePoint) was a critical component of their technology portfolio, especially for business process management (BPM). However, they did have issues with SharePoint ranging from: insufficient workflow processes, disorganised content, to lack of an over-arching site creation strategy.

Serena’s Lean BPM makes managing your business processes underlying SharePoint fast & simple. Using the drag-and-drop visual online interface you can have new processes up, running & producing returns in hours rather than months. Based on solutions currently deployed within Education, Local Government, Defence, Central Government and Criminal Justice, Serena are currently offering FREE public sector workshops, during which they will design & build a business process of your choice on your site. At the end of the session this automated process will be yours to keep!

See how you can integrate all your service delivery systems rather than having a disparate set of unlinked workflows. Best of all see how you can develop them in-house!
