Worksense adopts Jim2

Safety product distributor Worksense has implemented the Jim2 workflow management software, reducing its errors and streamlining the warehouse system, reports Industrial IT.

According to the company, it was increasingly sourcing products internationally to import to Australia, making its systems complex and time-consuming to manage.

To provide a clear window into its workflow and to support its growing customer base and imports business, it decided to take on Happen Business' Jim2 Business Engine.

Business and IT professionals are increasingly looking at how to leverage their existing investment and knowledge base in Microsoft SharePoint to achieve success with business process management initiatives, states MSNBC.

A new interview with Mauro Cardarelli, director of Portals and Collaboration at Vitale Caturano, examines strategies for linking document scanning with SharePoint to eliminate business process bottlenecks.

Cardarelli sees great value to be gained by automating paper-based processes within SharePoint: "Adding document scanning capabilities to SharePoint lets you place document capture activities at the points most appropriate in the workflow."

WSO2, the open source SOA company, recently unveiled the WSO2 Business Process Server (BPS) 1.0, says Centre Daily.

The open source solution enables developers to easily deploy business processes written using the WS-BPEL standard, and it also serves as the business process management and hosting environment for SOA.

Based on WSO2 Carbon, the industry's first fully componentised SOA framework, it provides developers with a level of flexibility and ease of integration.
