• The goal of this project is to deliver a SalesForce application to Confidential that provides:
• Sales functionality for Aerotek and TEKsystems, related to Accounts, Contacts and Reqs.
• Existing functionality of SalesForce for Allegis with a focus on integration points.
• The SalesForce implementation will not stand-alone but will be significantly integrated with other Confidential applications directly or indirectly including TIBCO, the Hub, RWS, DWS, BI, Independent Req and even a legacy instance of Siebel for Data Governance
• Since the out-of-the-box SalesForce functionality is considered to perform well, our performance testing effort will focus on 1) interfaces between SalesForce and other Confidential applications, 2) customizations of SalesForce pages to validate that no performance issues were introduced.
