Accela Partners with TP Systems

Accela (News - Alert), Inc., a company that provides solutions for government-citizen interaction, recently entered a partnership agreement with TP Systems, a provider of software and IT services to government, non-profit healthcare providers, and professional services organizations, to resell its full suite of Web-based automation products in Canada.

Accela Automation offers a powerful set of common features that allow end-users to enhance the way they interact with agency data. Accela’s workflow engine is configured based on client’s agency’s existing practices. Workflows can be very complex, involving several departments and multiple steps; or can be simpler, only involving a single department and just a few steps. Moreover, the company’s products feature templates that include all of the workflows, data structures, business logic, fees, Web forms and standard reports, essentially everything they need to quickly set up, configure and deploy.

"Accela is committed to helping the public sector deliver services more efficiently for greater customer satisfaction, and continuing to expand into the Canadian market delivers on this commitment," said Accela CEO and President Maury Blackman. "TP Systems has been in business for more than 35 years, with a reputation for integrity and competence that just can't be beat. We're proud they're joining our global network of implementation partners."

Accela Automation provides administrators with the ability to quickly define fees and fee schedules. Users can assess, invoice, and receive full or partial payments from a central payment center within the application. Also, the products feature powerful scripting engine allowing clients to further customize the application to meet business needs. Events that can be triggered by the engine include creating a new record, resulting a workflow task, writing information to a data file, sending or receiving information from a Web service, and more.

"Accela Automation is a great addition to the products and services we're able to offer to our clients. It complements the other solutions we've been implementing, such as document management, managed services, and general IT consulting," said Scott Ross, CEO of TP Systems. "We're excited to be an Accela partner."
