Workflow Questions?

Scott was recently asked, “What software would you recommend for mapping/mocking up/wire framing a workflow before you build it?” Here are his recommendations and insights: Although working in Nintex to build a workflow is a completely valid method, as an Enterprise Architect I have found that it can limit your thinking to what the workflow tool can do versus what the business requirements actually are. The tool I use most often is Microsoft Visio 2013. In Visio, I am able to quickly design workflows in different layouts (UML, Standard Flowchart, etc) and then deliver to my end users in different formats (PDF, PNG, etc) depending on the audience I’m dealing with. In addition, you can also create storyboards to design complex user interfaces or data entry forms that may also be participating in the workflow. Visio is actually available on a subscription basis now via Office365 (as low as $13/month I believe), so it makes the tool pretty affordable for everyone. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/visio/visio-pro-for-office-365-online-diagram-software-FX103791920.aspx Did you find this helpful?

We contracted with Tricension to take on something of a unique challenge with our firm; importing data from a variety of database types into our format. We gave Tricension some basic information on the process that we were using within our company and no documentation on the database itself. They have done an excellent job of familiarizing themselves with our database and other database types, creating their own processes to more efficiently import the data, and working with customers to keep them updated on progress.They have an excellent approach to project management and have done a great job of keeping our customers updated on progress. Our business fluctuates quite a bit seasonally, and they have done a great job adding staff to the projects during busy times and dialing back during slow periods. Although the cost per hour is higher for their service, we save money and provide better service by utilizing Tricension due to their staffing flexibility.

Tricension is a great business partner. They put focus on delivering a quality product and put the needs of the customer first. When our requirements shifted mid-project, they worked with us to make the necessary adjustments to ensure success.

The Tricension team has completed several integration projects for us to dramatically improve transaction processing and eliminate error prone data entry. These projects have had a dramatic impact on our business. I really enjoy working with their people.
