The Boardwalk Collaboration Platform (BCP) is a patented technology that does for tabular data what relational systems did for file systems. It creates an enterprise-class database environment for sharing and managing spreadsheet data that uses Excel as the user interface.
Users continue to work in Excel on the desktop, but now they can share data at the cell level without email. BCP becomes a single version of the truth for your spreadsheet data along with access control, audit trail, and versioning. Multiple users can work at the same time on the same data as part of a collaborative S&OP process.
Data from backend systems (CRM/ERP/SCP) can be pulled into BCP enabling controlled access to this data from within Excel.

Key Features
- Active reporting: BES's cell-level persistence means updates from other users or integrated systems refresh, rather than replace, data in Excel-based reports so you can easily see what's changed
- Automatic multi-level consolidation: BES automatically consolidates updates made by users through multiple hierarchies giving you a rolled up view of your data on-demand
- Automatic version control and audit trail: All changes to all cells to this single version of the truth are continuously versioned enabling data comparisons at any point in time to the cell level
- Multi-user, cell-level collaboration: Multiple users can work on the same range (or multiple ranges) of spreadsheet-based data at the same time on their desktop while working within Excel. There's no checking out and checking in the shared data nor locking out input from other users
- Cell-level access control and security: BES provides adaptive, role-appropriate access control down to the cell level
