Workflow Configurations
Who are we to tell you how to do things?
While traditional providers offer a one-size-fits-all solution that dictates your workflow, Messer believes that the COO knows best what the fund needs. Therefore, on top of our Prodigy Suite, we are offering a range of workflow configurations as standalone modules or as add-ons to Prodigy. Whatever your goals are, our workflow configurations will act as a reliable toolkit to help you establish smooth-sailing operations.
