System integration and consulting projects often combine the efforts of multiple companies, each delivering components of an overall project solution. Control over information access and usage is critical as team members may be collaborating on one project, while competing with each other for other project awards. Epok Federated Access Manager allows integrators and consultants to create project communities that seamlessly share information, while controlling information flow to ensure it is not used beyond the project scope.
Epok’s software eliminates the need for IT to provision and manage external users and puts partner management control back in the hands of project leaders – where it belongs. Epok Federated Access Manager leverages existing identity and provisioning mechanisms to simplify community user management. Because Epok Federated Access Manager seamlessly integrates with Microsoft SharePoint 2007 and other information sharing tools, project team members can seamlessly join and add value to project efforts.
