Philosophy
Common Thread = Organization Knowlege Management with a human touch
Common Thread has the elements found in Project Management, Team Collaboration, Contact Management and the many variations of this theme currently offered by others with the added benefit of clear structure and flexability to adapt to clients needs. Common Thread is designed to give you a clear perspective on your organization and to care for your customers by providing improved customer service and delivering your products and services to them more efficiently.
Because of the way we designed Common Thread, we can deliver working software that exactly meets your needs very quickly with less risk and at lower cost. Our software development philosophy is most closely aligned with Agile Software Development. We believe that the only way a business user can validate a software system is to use it to do their job. Producing endless plans prior to the delivery of working software burns valuable money and time.
Designing a custom solution is a team process that requires both the attention of our clients and IdeaWeavers. We try to be very respectful of your time and not have endless meetings with much talk and little action. We quickly provide new releases of working software to keep the team's momentum moving forward to a successful conculsion.
Although our clients are in many different industries, we have found that two types of systems provide the highest positive impact on their business operations.
Data Aggregation/Intelligence
We have extensive experience in combining heterogeneous data sources into a unified system. By unifying the data, new perspectives are achieved that can open areas of opportunity and insight that were previously unattainable. We have written imports ranging from automated Account and Position data from Bear Stearns and Pershing to General Ledger and Transaction data from accounting systems.
Workflow and Alerts
Common Thread has many tools that allow us to quickly streamline and automate your workflows. These systems help your staff rapidly move standard business processes through their life-cycle. This helps free staff to provide the value-added service and insight that separates you from your competitors. Common Thread also sends targeted emails and creates tasks based on trigger events and data changes to help people stay apprised of changing situations.
