Client Challenge
Communication and collaboration are critical business drivers for Playboy Enterprises, Inc. The organization was using an existing workflow system for certain business operations that depended on a fax and paper trail, leaving room for error and inconsistencies.
Solution
PointBridge worked with Playboy on a three week engagement to leverage Microsoft’s SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007 and the Office 2007 systems to improve these business processes. MOSS 2007 automated key workflows and ensured proper approvals were obtained, increasing efficiencies and creating a seamless communication path between divisions and co-workers.
