Case Study - Smart Card Manufacturer HighOrbit
created a system that allowed the client to put their entire approval
process online and eliminated the need to expend human resources on
these time consuming tasks. With the new system, a form is filled out
and assigned, in order, to the four people within the company who need
to approve it. Once it is approved, the help desk gets the green light
to begin setting things up for the employee.
