6 Key Features
Process Archetypes™

A library of canned, re-usable business processes, business rules, IP knowledge and/ or best practices that are captured centrally and are quickly replicable and exported to other systems, organizations, governments or countries.

Process Archetypes™ help simplify application development, enhance productivity and maintenance as well as uphold best practice principles and reduce costs. Examples of Process Archetypes™ are authentication process, payment process, license application process or processes related to specific domains, which are easily categorized and applied.

Organizations need to only build their Process Archetypes™ once centrally thereby facilitate, and enforce organizational governance as well as achieve rapid knowledge replication across their extended enterprise.

Ecquaria SOP™ harvests these best processes and encapsulates them into a high value Intellectual Property (IP) knowledge disk.

Service Integration Tool™

The open source-friendly Ecquaria SOP™ platform has a GUI-based IDE called the Service Integration Tool (SIT™) that plugs into the Eclipse development framework. More than a development tool, SIT™ is a powerful, dynamic Business Process Modeler that provides an all-in-one, collaborative environment for process design, development, testing, verification and management by developers, business analysts, IT operations professionals and the management – who now share the same real-time view for interaction and informed action.

Aligning people, processes and systems through the SIT™ canvas helps effectively eliminate any communication gap between technical and business users during the construction of applications. Every party is now able to walk through the actual executing transaction in Real-Time.

Web Services

Ecquaria is a pioneer in incorporating Web Services technology into a single software product. Ecquaria SOP™ is Web Services standards-compliant. This means that Services built on the platform can be readily converted into Web Services, providing external organizations with an easy channel for them to use, syndicate or consume, further expanding the business potential of a Web Services-ready organization.

Change Management

Frequent changes in policies and regulations mandate a systematic and reliable way of managing those changes. Ecquaria SOP™ as a process-centric platform not only allows organizations to build systems using processes easily, it also helps them identify points of change visually and accurately, and hence implement changes effectively.

Through the Version Control feature, organizations are able to keep track of the different versions of a change (e.g. a change in eligibility criteria for a tax incentive) made to a business process (e.g. tax incentive application). E.g. In situations when old policies still apply before the actual cut-off date, multiple versions – for old policies and new policy change - of the same process continue to run concurrently. Old versions will then retire automatically. All this happens without affecting system availability.

Key Performance Dashboard

Key Performance Dashboard Indicators (KPI) are usually treated as an afterthought in IT system implementation. Proactive monitoring and measurement capabilities are built into a live graphical dashboard (with drill-in, drill-out capabilities) that enables users to monitor in real-time the operational health of their organization’s operations e.g. chokepoints in the business processes.

The inherent feature has proactive alerts which empowers stakeholders to not only define their policies, procedures, Service Level Agreements (SLA) and KPIs right at the start, it also allows them to be precise in their identification of chokepoints and pre-empt problems before they hit.

System Management Control (SMC)/ Workdesk

SMC is a browser-based administrative module to administrate the SOP™ platform. It provides an extensible framework that includes Process Management, Project Management, User Management and Role Management controls. In addition, it allows you to add extra application-related controls.

The User Management Control is based on Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). With RBAC, you can easily define and control the access privileges of Public/ Trusted Users to a particular function or resource in Ecquaria SOP™, establishing an internal or external audit trail or work flows for increased visibility, tracking and efficiency.
