CRISP Technologies Interactive Workflow is an application that binds together business processes with the documentation and information people require to successfully complete the process. The Interactive Workflow is specifically designed to make linking documents and information about tasks easy and effective.

View a demonstration of the Interactive Workflow

One of the strengths of the Interactive Workflow is that it can be adapted and molded to fit the current information or business process already in place. Alternately, the Interactive Workflow can be used when creating new business processes to capture and store the associated intellectual property.

There are also several project management tools included with the Interactive Workflow. Workflows can be viewed as a Flowchart or a Gantt chart for monitoring the timeline of a project, custom fields can be created to track information as the project progresses, and an audit trail can be produced at any time.

The Interactive Workflow is available as both an online internet based application for larger user groups, or a desktop model for single users or smaller user groups.

The Interactive Workflow can streamline any business process and provide the tools necessary to complete the process effectively and efficiently. Dynamically created workflows with visual cues help manage the process while the user-friendly layout and information contained within instruct and guide users towards the end goal.

Develop custom workflows

The layout editing tools allow for the easy creation and customization of workflows. Drag and drop tasks, graphics and text onto the screen to illustrate the business process. Tasks can be connected with arrows to show the direction of flow.

Describe tasks and define important information

Descriptions of the tasks can be added to define the actions and instructions needed to complete the task. Customs properties can be added to the tasks to track required data.

Organize documents - create links between tasks and guidebooks, templates, samples, reference material, web sites, and other documentation.

For specific tasks, add links to documents or web sites that provide more information. Any document type can be linked to the workflow including but not limited to Word documents, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, html, etc.

Link to other applications

Supplemental applications, such as messaging systems and document management systems, can be launched from the Interactive Workflow. Data can also be sent to external applications .

View project overview or drill down to detailed information

Tasks can link to child pages that contain more tasks and information. This allows users to drill down to more detailed information and see further workflows that describe how a task is completed.

Filter project to concentrate on specific information

Workflows can be filtered to only view the information that is important to you. Filter the workflow by team, user group, location, status, budget, etc. to focus in on a specific group of tasks.

Manage the process using the built in project management tools

Custom fields for tasks allow project managers to input dates, deadlines, resources and contacts to track project progress. Colour outlines for tasks allow for quick identification of task status and the timeline view provides a Gantt chart of the project to monitor if the project is on schedule.

Email information to users

The interactive workflow can package and send out information about tasks and procedures to the users. This provides an effective tool for delegating duties and responsibilities.

Audit the business process

The Interactive Workflow documents the business process so that it is easily laid out for auditing, review, and revisions. Changes are recorded and stored for analysis at any time.
