Peter Fingar, business process management expert and author of the landmark book "Business Process Management: The Third Wave," recently described a new category of software called task-oriented applications or TOAs. "This important new breed of software allows for group tasks and activities to be managed without impacting existing enterprise IT systems. TOAs can offer new, simpler means for managing compliance with company policies, as well as dramatically increasing the productivity and communications of work teams across all business areas," said Fingar. "Recently, I had the opportunity to review products from a Tampa based software company called TOA Solutions, Inc. Their new offerings position the company for early leadership in this new space."
