Project goal

Investment management and control for Telecommunication Company.

Project description

One of the main processes of mid-sized and large companies is management and control of companies' cash flows and investments (equipment purchase). Each investment process is a complex business process which demands involvement of a number of responsible people and executors, where each fulfills its separate function/role. Also many of such processes consist of sub-processes which have to be centralized and appropriately managed. To manage them ALBPM engine has been chosen.

These processes include:

Workflow management and control;
Notification system for all members involved into the process.
