- Active Operations Management International (AOMi) embeds Cordys to enhance their Software as a Service business model –

Cordys, a global leader in next generation Business Process Management, has entered into a Software as a Service (SaaS) OEM agreement with Active Operations Management International (AOMi).
 
Established in 2005, AOMi provides the leading methodology for clerical operations management through a mixture of training, consultancy and its proprietary, web-based operations planning and control application - Workware™.
 
The Cordys Business Operations Platform enables organisations to dramatically improve their business agility, enabling rapid changes and allowing them to fundamentally alter the way they innovate their business operations to embrace a true customer-centric philosophy. Customers across the globe are achieving significant business performance improvements including increased productivity, reduced time to market and faster response times to ever-changing market demands.
 
Under the terms of the agreement Cordys will be implemented at the communications layer within Workware to enable integration of AOMi’s Software as a Service (SaaS) solution with client processing systems.
 
With the increased uptake of On Demand Computing, the SaaS market is forecasted to grow to $19.3 billion by 2011 according to research firm Gartner. With this in mind, the newly formed strategic partnership between Cordys and AOMi is ideally positioned to meet this burgeoning demand head-on.
 
Richard Jeffery’s, Managing Director of AOMi, stated: “The AOM methodology is being adopted as a corporate standard for Operations Management by leading global companies because of the transformational impact on their productivity and reliability of performance.  It is only through successfully bringing people, processes and technology together, that real business benefits are realised. Technology is only one critical element, addressing the cultural issues within an organisation is just as important to the success of the project. In reality this involves a mix of training, consultancy and the introduction of Workware. 
 
“The appeal for our customers is immediate as it will provide them with the proven Cordys Business Operations Platform in an off-the-shelf model, enabling them to integrate data seamlessly into Workware without having to build the interface from scratch or manually input data. For our customers this means that data integrity remains intact, accurate and reliable, as well as offering access to the broader capabilities of the Cordys platform” he continued.
 
Jon Pyke, Chief Strategy Officer of Cordys, added: “We are bringing together best of breed technology, which in combination with AOMi’s methodology expertise delivers a fully integrated solution that helps customers looking for resolution of  issues such as capacity planning and performance reporting, based on a Software as a Service business model”
