HYPERTECH has an exclusive partnership with the international company of BPM solutions named AGILEPOINT™ to provide the product suite AgilePoint BPMS. The Ascentn AgilePoint was designed to enable organizations to deliver BPM objectives with the philosophy of Think Big, Start Small, and Scale Fast. Ascentn believes this is the most practical way to practice BPM and create managed success in view of the challenges faced with technology, people and culture adaptation.
From the ground up, AgilePoint leverages the entire Microsoft product set and environment (.NET,Visio, InfoPath, SharePoint, ASP.NET, Exchange, Windows Workflow Foundation, Office System OpenXML, SQL Server, BizTalk, and Visual Studio, etc.) to deliver a robust and scalable BPM Engine, which, through reuse of process assets, supports both human workflow and automated processes and enables business managers to leverage the stack of Microsoft products and technologies as simply as diagramming a process model. The product extends Visio into a full lifecycle BPM productivity tool, from design into production, and through iterative improvement. It allows business managers to model and execute business processes straight from Visio, free of rigid code generation that limits run-time adaptability, to deliver a high degree of in-flight process adaptability and hence business agility.
The AgilePoint platform consists of the following applications:
- AgilePoint Server Configuration – a desktop-based configuration tool for the system administrator to configure the various system parameters such as SMTP server, database settings, custom server extensions, etc.
- AgilePoint Enterprise Manager – a web-based interface for power users or system administrators to manage, monitor, and audit the AgilePoint BPMS and its runtime processes
- AgilePoint Envision – an extension of Microsoft Visio, enabling process designers to define and simulate their process templates and deploy for execution through the Microsoft Visio interface
- AgilePoint Developer – an extension of Microsoft Visual Studio, allowing application developers to leverage AgilePoint’s BPM framework, e.g. AgilePart, and abstract custom developments, Web Services, etc., into reusable process descriptions at the process tier. It also lets firms implement more complex process and application logic to create domain-specific extensions, reusing processes, and other AgilePoint server functionality
