New version of IRIS process management tool enables online process communities   |  November 21, 2007  

Leverages Enterprise Web 2.0 technologies to improve process adoption across all Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) stages

TORONTO, Nov. 21 /CNW/ - Today, Osellus, a leading software process automation solution provider, announced the availability of IRIS Process Author 3.5. This new offering enables software development teams to significantly improve the rate of adoption of their processes improvement initiatives.

"Process adoption remains as a major challenge for most software development organizations. Despite continuing investment in methodologies, tools and training by management, team members often view process as a superfluous factor that they have to accept but one that they have little influence on," said Payman Hodaie, CTO of Osellus. "IRIS 3.5 addresses this challenge by allowing practitioners to become active participants in a live process community."

IRIS 3.5 streamlines the interactions between process authors and practitioners through the means of wikis, blogs, online forums and other Web 2.0 technologies. Web 2.0 social media, such as these, that allow two-way user controlled participation amongst stakeholders is gaining widespread acceptance in business. IRIS 3.5 utilizes these technologies to facilitate better asynchronous process access, dissemination, feedback, tailoring and refinement. The resulting improved practitioner participation in process authoring and enactment has a direct and positive impact on process acceptance.

Availability
IRIS 3.5 is available immediately. For further information, please contact Chandra Bhople, Director of Business Development, at 1-866-OSELLUS (416-603-6667) or info@osellus.com, or visit www.osellus.com.
