Technology
TopForce optimises processes and user experience using technology.
The end user must be able to work easily and effectively to have the right information and processes at his or her disposal. We build our solutions around the requirements of the end user and not the other way around.
All the same, you definitely need to know your way around the technology in order to know what software works well together and how you can improve what is already there using relatively simple techniques. Our people have a solid technical grounding and experience. They are able to design, program and integrate practical solutions. They know which technology is available and what is on the horizon. Ultimately, it is about selecting the right software to achieve the optimum result. We call this solution architecture: The basis of the most suitable solution.
Technology
For each process step, TopForce analyses which functionality and technology best meets the objectives and conditions defined. We call these the business requirements. We are always guided by them, because our tools need to perfectly support them. Whether it’s about content integration, identity management or the user interface. In addition, we look at durability and whether systems are future-proof by making strategic choices which enable your business to perform better. We know what is scalable, offers stability and has a good ROI (return on investment). We show you which tools really add value and why.
Optimise your technology
TopForce has all the resources needed to strengthen your organisation. With specialised people and advanced technology, we think about today, but also about tomorrow. We are always working to improve and design technologies. For example, interactive tables and the implementation of social networks in business. A successful company looks to tomorrow, without forgetting about today. Invest in your people, processes and technology together with TopForce.

Process integration consultant Our process integration consultants specialise in the technical design of processes. This can take on a number of forms, from the simple linking of systems in order to exchange data, to advanced BPM solutions involving a complete separation of application systems and multi-channel user interfaces. The value of the solutions always lies in the efficient process support delivered. This can also be visualised with the help of a business activity monitoring dashboard: this allows you to see which processes are running, and what their status is, at all times. At the same time, it sheds light on average process performance, with the data displayed relating to your business objectives.
more
We can deliver process integration solutions with a range of technologies and products; we always choose those which are most appropriate for the customer’s situation. Whether the solution is based entirely on the SOA concept or is more pragmatic, durability requirements, added value and implementation costs are always carefully considered. Examples of products we have experience of are: SAP BPM, SAP PI/XI, IBM WebShere, Tibco and BEA WebLogic. Many of our consultants are familiar with multiple technologies and environments: this enables them to quickly devise solution approaches and coordinate them with other developers on a project. Process integration consultants are often the organisational force when it comes to delivering solution architecture, enabling
High-Performance Processes.

Integration solution architect The integration solution architect is often one of the first consultants to meet our customers: he/she has the capacity to perfectly assess business requirements and priorities and translate them into a combination of systems that support the objectives identified – both for the business and in terms of the technology. The 5-layer architecture model serves as a good means of communication to integrate business and IT. The point is not that there are 5 layers; it is that they produce a coherent story that everyone can relate to and which creates a basis for the approach and possible solution.

Our integration solution architects know many different integration concepts and have years of experience in complex environments. As a result, they are able to quickly select between possible integration solutions. Content Integration, Indexing and Search, Identity Management, Master Data Management, Enterprise Service Bus and Data Warehousing can be integrated into a total solution that delivers a real High-Performance Workplace. In addition, they will advise you which products from which supplier or open source community can best achieve the intended result. They will also help you to define generic components that can be used across different process areas or interaction channels, in order to achieve the clearest and most manageable whole. In order to optimise the transferability and manageability of a solution, they can also take your delivery team to a higher level when it comes to development methodology, test management and documentation standards. This is a good example of High-Performance work.

SAP base technology consultant
Many customers rely on their SAP systems to support their business operations. A great deal of information registration and transactions are based on them. This has to continue day in, day out. Keeping this engine running properly requires regular maintenance. That may mean system patches or upgrades, or it may mean replacing one system with another. Our SAP basis technology consultants can help you perform these activities quickly and efficiently so that you will be able to continue supporting your business operations in a durable manner. Over time, performance issues may also come to light, resulting in the processes and/or user experience no longer being as you expect them to be. By conducting a thorough performance (i.p.v. perform + perform) analysis on your SAP systems, we can quickly reveal where the problem lies and recommend a solution.more
In addition, our SAP basis technology consultants can help you to completely redesign systems: whether you need to implement a new SAP NetWeaver infrastructure to prepare your current SAP installation for the web, or install the standard SAP ERP modules. They will match the technical architecture to your need – which may be for a high-availability system. They have worked on the biggest SAP systems in the Netherlands (and beyond). Developments are on-going and the complexity of your SAP landscape will increase over time. We use separate tools to make sure that we continue to deliver quality support: SAP Solution Manager, CTS+, NWDI and other tools are at your disposal to make sure everything runs smoothly. This is how we realise your High-Performance SAP Landscape.
Whether I want to know about a purchase or sale order, a delivery or status: the HPW gives me a clear and up-to-date overview of everything that’s going on. For myself and with other parties.”
