Method Park Tool Stages enables Global Process Management

More and more companies develop innovative products across different locations and time zones in international teams using several languages. Their development processes must also meet these requirements. Method Park’s new version of its process management solution Stages allows concurrent modeling, execution, and maintenance of processes in several languages.

Higher process acceptance

Stages 7.4 also integrates with automated translation systems and provides consistent support for input methods of Asian characters. These improvements help process managers achieve significantly higher process acceptance rates within their international teams.

Seamless global cooperation

"Virtually all industries are undergoing a dramatic transformation with value chains across the globe are being redefined" says Dr. Erich Meier, Method Park CTO and Chief Architect of Stages. "Stages has been supporting our customers in this global transformation for almost two decades. The new Stages version allows seamless development of innovative products across countries and continents and enables organizations to collaborate with their clients and suppliers without being slowed down by language barriers."

Faster process understanding

Stages 7.4 displays change markers directly within the process models and allows comparing process variants. Users with a project manager license can now autonomously model, tailor, and release processes, within their defined level of authority. With numerous additional user experience improvements, the Method Park product developers increasingly focus on end users and accelerate their process understanding.
