Citadon BPD™ (Business Process Designer) removes the challenge of keeping complex, large-scale projects under control in a constantly changing business environment. Citadon BPD is Citadon’s visual process development environment, which is standard in Citadon’s Velocity and optional in Citadon CW. Its capabilities are enterprise-wide, so you can automate and streamline processes within your organization as well as processes you incorporate from vendors, contractors, consultants and clients.

Citadon BPD lets you:

• Control the sequence of activities, business forms and workflows throughout the project lifecycle
• Customize business processes and workflows to the way you do business
• Design and modify business processes for speed, efficiency and productivity
• Define event triggers for sharing data with enterprise applications
• Design project workflows and the structure for data capture based on project milestones

Ease of use - Designing and distributing custom business processes is as easy as dragging and dropping workflow elements and form fields within Citadon BPD. Once designed, processes are linked to project documents and related data in the Citadon runtime environment.

Flexibility - You define how you want to organize information, manage access permissions and facilitate online business processes.

Customization - With Citadon BPD, you can modify the ready-made process templates that come with Citadon CW to customize business processes or create entirely new ones. Advanced customization capabilities - standard in Velocity and optional in Citadon CW - let you easily build custom forms and workflows to match current best practices and reflect the way you do business.

Documentation - BPD creates documentation as you define processes, providing a complete audit trail that tracks who initiated the process, when and where it was sent and what action was taken. You can ensure that you are adhering to processes and continually improving them - a significant time-saver in meeting corporate compliance regulations.
