eGroup and K2 Partner to Accelerate Business Process Automation in Organizations Across the Southeast

MT. PLEASANT, SC -- April 1, 2014 -- eGroup, the Southeast's leading provider of cloud, application and end-user computing services, announced today a partnership with K2, a leader in business process application software, to help organizations leverage existing investments in enterprise application stacks, including SharePoint, and implement best-of-breed business process automation (BPA) and management (BPM) solutions.

eGroup software engineers are now certified to scope and deliver BPA and BPM solutions based on K2 technologies, which will allow Southeast-based organizations to build and run business applications including forms, workflow, data and reports.

As a result of the partnership, eGroup engineers will expand the use of SharePoint for more business processes through the efficient building of apps across all SharePoint versions including Office 365. The engineers will create full-featured apps that include simple workflows to route documents for approval, include forms and use data from other systems, or even apps that are built to run outside of SharePoint but use SharePoint-based documents and lists.

"As eGroup works with clients across the Southeast, we're well aware of the ongoing end-user adoption and usage challenges facing these organizations," said Ian Jones, Application and Data Services Manager, eGroup. "K2 blackpearl will equip our team to deliver successful outcomes around our customer's entire enterprise application stack, including SharePoint.
