Our compliance platform has been built on top of Microsoft's Windows SharePoint Services. This enables us to take advantage of best-of-breed enterprise scalable technology while providing our clients with familiar tools to further customize and enhance our platform. In the same way Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 ("MOSS") has extended the core functionality of Windows SharePoint Services, we have also extended Windows SharePoint Services with over 20 additional data types including the ability to dynamically link to data stored elsewhere within the SharePoint system.
RADS® has further simplified some of the complexity that can evolve around extending SharePoint by creating dynamic forms and conditional visibility rules for data entry. This means that users only see what they need to see at any specific point in time.
This functionality coupled with rules-based workflows quickly leverages some of the core functionality of SharePoint to quickly deliver an application that can mimic and improve current business processes.
Our RADS® platform leverages the latest advances in application development to deliver on next generation promises including:
Requirements generated code: Where application code is automatically generated from the requirements documents.
Online Data Structure Definition: Meta-data fields, Content Types and Lists can be modified with the application remaining online - with no down time.
End-user Customization: Permissions can be granted to users not just to modify data to be collected but also rules, form layouts and even custom views.
Enterprise Integration: Integrates with almost any enterprise system through custom-coded plug-ins or web-services, including financial systems, product management systems, and sales force automation systems including SAP.
Desktop Integration: Our plug-in architecture extends the core Microsoft capabilities to allow integration by running custom plug-ins to link with Unix, Mainframe and Windows-based systems.
In addition, we are, of course, able to leverage the many benefits of Microsoft SharePoint Technology including Multi-tier Architecture, Web Services, User Interface Trimming, Versioning and Full Audit Trails.
