AKIOMA is an innovative CRM provider that helps its clients assemble complex proposals for large scale manufacturing projects. To handle the complexity of its day-to-day business, AKIOMA has developed an application to streamline the quoting process for any project of any size using Progress Software’s OpenEdge BPM and Corticon BRMS solutions.

Using Progress’ process and rules enabled platform, AKIOMA is able to build and customize applications for its evolving client business, improving productivity and responsiveness to customers. With its new solution, AKIOMA enables business users to implement simple rules themselves, lowering costs and increasing flexibility and speed for both IT and business users. Corticon BRMS for OpenEdge also gives AKIOMA the ability to manage and update customers to new versions of software without impacting any customizations they already have in place.

“AKIOMA is a complex app with a lot of logic,” said Mike Liewehr, Managing Director at AKIOMA. “OpenEdge for the app and database are five times more productive for us than Java or .NET alternatives.”

While AKIOMA is still only in the early stages of incorporating Corticon into its solution, there is great potential for growth. Read more to learn about how Progress Software has helped AKIOMA mine complexity and achieve simplicity in its CRM solution.
