AGRESSO Business World is a highly flexible, integrated business information system that offers a complete solution for finance, project accounting, logistics, human resources and payroll for medium to large organisations. Using the power of the existing AGRESSO 5 system, AGRESSO Business World adds web, e-commerce and mobile capabilities enabling users to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their businesses. It is a multilingual, multicurrency, multicompany system that is easily configurable for different operating environments.

At the centre of AGRESSO Business World is AGRESSO Office, an integrated suite of modules that addresses business requirements in the areas of finance, budgeting, logistics, project costing/billing, human resources and payroll.

AGRESSO Web Service brings together all the web-enabled capabilities a user needs into one simple interface. From anywhere in the world, using a simple web browser users can undertake standard business transactions, easily access and analyse information held in the corporate database, enter timesheet and expense information, view, create and update personal records and access the back office functionality of AGRESSO.

The AGRESSO eCommerce Services provides users with the ability to exchange business transactions to each other across the web, vastly improving the speed and costs of such transactions. Agresso will provide support for both Microsoft BizTalk Server as a standard for allowing communications between disparate business systems and BASDA eBis schema.

AGRESSO Mobile Services provides support for ultra-thin devices such as mobile phones and palmtops, initially with functionality to support users in the field with remote entry of timesheets and expenses.

AGRESSO Business World's strengths are delivering business understanding and enabling change.

Today's dynamic organisations need detailed information in order to understand the behaviour of the business so that decisions can be taken which subsequently change the business operation in some way. The revolutionary structural concepts used with AGRESSO, enable the capture and analysis of unparalleled levels of information, as well as the rapid re-definition of the system itself. This is in sharp contrast to the "ERP" type systems that are designed to enforce defined best practice throughout a mature organisation.

At the heart of AGRESSO Business World is a multi-dimensional "Information Warehouse", which is constantly updated by business transactions from within AGRESSO and if required, from external systems. Data is presented to users via on-line "Data Marts" which contain information pulled together from different modules to present a complete view of the business.

AGRESSO Business World's in-built tools make enquiries, reporting and multi-dimensional data analysis fast, accurate and easy to achieve. A consistent set of data interrogation and analysis facilities is available throughout AGRESSO.

AGRESSO is targeted at organisations with a turnover of £40 million and above. The product is particularly attractive to businesses with large demands for information, or those subject to significant business change. Our customer base includes many financial service and retail companies and Agresso has a very strong presence in government, health and education. Due to some extensive specialist functionality, AGRESSO has substantial attraction for professional service organisations whose primary business is project based, both for managing time and costs and for invoicing.

Existing clients include Logica , The RAC, University of Liverpool, East Kent NHS Trust, Lloyds TSB Registrars, Halcrow, MORI, AEA Technology, Oxford City Council and Monmouthshire County Council.
