Singularity Workflow

Managing active information is the key to your continued success. Singularity’s suite of ‘process based’ workflow tools allows you to focus on the dispensation and routing of active information.

Bring process to life - INTELLIGENTLY.
Workflow technologies are employed to add efficiency and management oversight to an existing process. That being stated, workflow should not simply be applied as a ‘recreation’ of your current processes. Rather, workflow technologies should be employed to augment a current business process. The tools must ‘bend’ with the current process and meet with the process in a synergistic manner to achieve the greatest efficiencies. Singularity Workflow has been designed with the end-process in mind; the tools, when applied, provide an encompassing overview into your processes as a whole and allow you to drill down to the perspective of a single-user within a single process. Process intelligence is just around the corner.

Evolve with institutional needs – FLEXIBILITY & SCALABILITY
Nothing remains static in your busy world. Your business processes change and you expect those tools that automate your processes to change with them. Singularity Workflow has been designed for the enterprise.

  • Flexible workflow processing allows you to evolve the automation process with the business.
  • Scalable and cluster ready technology allows your organization to handle massive workflow load. Allow us to grow with your organization
  • Workflow definitions are non-compiled allowing for easy upgrades that do not require Hershey services.
  • Processes are secure and actions are tracked throughout the workflow process.
  • Dashboard overviews are configurable by user and allow management drill down to information.
  • Singularity can interoperate with other workflow technologies via XPDL (XML process definition language.
  • Workflow processes can be extended via the ‘Singlet’ mechanism. Singlets can be created in javascript, jsp, groovy script, and java.

Singularity allows for the creation of unlimited workflows per document type and apart from document types. Workflow processes can be declared as ‘global routes’, ‘expression routes’, ‘scheduled tasks’, ‘document retention tasks’, and ‘document capture tasks’.

The web based process builder is simple to use and extend via the Singlet mechanism. You can create, modify, version, activate, and inactivate workflow processes with a simple drag-and-drop browser based design tool.

Using process based workflow, tasks are routed to groups and ownership is assigned to individuals. Singularity allows you to maximize both process and individual productivity.

Work together – COLABORATION
Tasks are routed to the user’s dashboard. Task receipt is logged and confusion is eliminated. Using the dashboard a user can instantly view their most important and oldest tasks.

Information gathered in tasks is automatically available (should the proper entitlements be allowed) to the next recipient in the workflow process. Collaboration is insured and productivity is achieved.

Eliminate the need for touch – AUTOMATE DESCISIONS
Automate processing decisions based on cleansed and understood data. Utilizing Singlets and Expression Routes, Singularity enables you to make predetermined routing decisions based on information collected during the capture and workflow processes. Utilizing Agent Data Integration, information currently housed within the ERP/SIS can also be used to make automatic workflow and routing decisions.

Understand your current workload – VISUALLY
The Singularity Dashboard provides a singular overview of all your processes. The dashboard gauge-pod instantly notifies you of any tasks that may be ‘overdue’. The monthly, weekly, and daily charts are configurable to your individual or institutional needs. Tasks are arranged by type, then by day, then by week, and finally by month.
