Oudenaarde, Belgium, March 11, 2013 – AgilePoint (http://www.agilepoint.com), a leading developer of .NET-based Business Process Management (BPMS) solutions, announced that it is forging a new partnership with Atena, a systems integrator located in Poland.

Atena is currently the most active Polish systems integrator with Microsoft SharePoint as its core platform. “Our customer base demands the highest quality solutions that deliver sustained benefits and are looking for innovative BPM solutions to cover their needs”, says Michal Bojko, Software Development Manager at Atena.
“Accordingly, Atena was looking to meet its customer requirements with an innovative and robust enterprise-class solution that allows its customers to leverage familiar Microsoft tools such as Visio, SharePoint, Dynamics CRM, etc. In particular, Atena customers are looking beyond structured workflow automation and are increasingly interested in true process management capabilities, such as run-time adaptations to reduce the cost in handling exceptions as well as being able to adapt to changing customer needs. We believe that the partnership with AgilePoint will allow us to meet the business expectations of our clients along with providing the highest quality of software and service delivery,” he also states.
“We are very pleased to have a Poland-based partner like Atena,” said Hans Hantson, Business Development Manager for AgilePoint EMEA. “Like us, they are focused on making their customers more productive. The AgilePoint BPMS suite brings a lot of value to the table as it greatly simplifies the automation and continuous improvement of business processes, regardless of if they are functional workflows or end-to-end cross functional core business processes. AgilePoint is based on the latest .NET technology and exposes open interfaces including Web services, WCF, and RESTful, therefore aligning particularly well with the vision of Atena,” he also states.
