The e-business platforms lead to a marked reduction in costs and a sharp rise in efficiency compared with conventional processes. By combining the internal and external resources of the company via the Internet, this means that each party involved can optimize productivity by concentrating on his own strengths and skills, thereby reducing his administrative load.

Closely linked with the decision-making processes, these platforms can only achieve their targets of profitability and efficiency if they are fully incorporated in the company's data processing architecture.

The Portalys solution has been designed and developed so as to be efficiently incorporated in the database, just as with all ERP, PDM, CFAO or GPAO solutions already running in companies.

The necessary interfaces are developed by Portalys to guarantee a perfect connection with these systems.

Working out the returns on investment coupled with the incorporation of the Portalys solution, well exceeds a rate of 150%. It could even reach 1500% if one includes the more sensitive data, such as quality improvement or process control, in this calculation.
