Challenge

	?Formativ is the ideal tool for creating collaborative business solutions and enhancing the value of our GroupWise implementation.? Michael Menard Assistant Director Service/Software Management Department University of Klagenfurt

Klagenfurt University had long relied on an outdated, error-prone purchasing system of manual checks and balances that often included lengthy delays as purchase requests were printed and then routed interoffice from person to person, building to building, and desk to desk. It wasn't unusual for an individual order to take up to three months to complete, and errors were common.

Automating and streamlining general procurement activity is a significant undertaking for any organization. Assistant Director Michael Menard and other members of Klagenfurt University's Software Management team learned there were few out-of-the-box solutions available for implementing procurement workflow.

Solution

Thanks to Advansys Formativ and GroupWise 6, Klagenfurt University administrators, staff and faculty now enjoy faster procurement times and greatly improved order handling procedures that are easy to understand and use. Through tight integration with GroupWise, Formativ provides Klagenfurt University with all the tools and resources necessary to rapidly deliver a campus-wide procurement solution, as well as collaborative applications and process management solutions that are ready for the demands of tomorrow.
