Wareprise.com responds to the requirements as follow:

Dear Arul,

Firstly thanks for your enquiry. This is the first time I’m getting enquiries for my opinion and views. I will try my best to provide you with an answer based on my experiences and thoughts.

I believe the biggest challenge to your requirement would the the time tracking for each tasks since you mentioned that there is a need to deliver ads within 2 days or so.

My thinking is there are two options you can consider.

1. To build a system from scratch using php, mysql, windows. The benefit to this is you can get exactly what you need right to the detail. The downside, it can take quite some time and cost to implement depending on how specific there requirement needs to be.

2. To find the closes available open source solution which matches your requirements and customize it from there. The good thing about most open source solution is that the core functionalities are already there, such as user manager, document management, task management, etc. Downside is that these solutions are usually very focused. Meaning, if you need a solution for document management, then it purely does that very well without the other features like project management or customer relationship management. So if you are to go with these solutions, chances are you will need to integrate some of these solutions together to make it fit your requirement.

Think about the possibilities of these 2 options and evaluate the feasibility to implement based on time, cost and resources.

If you plan to go option 2, which is to source for closes match open source solutions, I would recommend the following solutions:

Epiware

Epiware is mainly document management oriented as it has versioning and check in check out capabilities. This feature is good when you have more than 1 designer working on ads at the same time. The check in check out feature will allow a designer to lock the file that he is working on to ensure no two person works on it simultaneously. Epiware oso has simple task management and calendering features.

Achievo

Achievo is a project management solution which allows your designers to clock in the number of hours they have work on. Although not specified in your requirement, I thought it would be great for you to be able to see which particular project / work has taken up the most time and resources to accomplish. It’s got reports to show the stats of each project which has been worked on.

A Non Open Source Solution

Another solution which I can recommend but is not open source would be Microsoft Windows Sharepoint Services. With this solution you can create your work areas as well as implement workflows such as allowing a QA person to accept of reject ads before going to the dispatch team. To achieve this, Sharepoint webparts can be developed. For cost wise, it conforms to the Windows Server 2003 licensing model.

Hopefully some of these suggestions can help. For others who could contribute as well, do comment below.

Again, thanks for your enquiry.

      Also have a look at e-LM.com. This is a SaaS solution that allows you to implement your own workflow. It also automatically tracks all changes with timestamps and who made the change. The biggest advantage is that you can give your customer access as well so that they can log their requests directly into e-LM and then monitor the progress on each individual item.
