Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for assessing and auditing release readiness for a software application. A server receives identification of a software application to be deployed to a production computing environment. The server determines technical attributes of the identified software application from application lifecycle management tools. The server selects one or more release readiness assessment criteria corresponding to the identified software application. The server applies the technical attributes of the identified software application to the release readiness assessment criteria to generate a release readiness score for the software application. The server deploys the identified software application to the production computing environment when the release readiness score is at or above a predetermined threshold. The server prevents deployment of the identified software application to the production computing environment when the release readiness score is below the predetermined threshold.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method operating at a server system is disclosed. The server hosts and electronic procurement system. A first user purchase request to purchase an item is received, and a second user purchase request to purchase the same item is received. A determination is made if there is sufficient stock of the item available to fulfill both user purchase requests. The first and second user purchase requests are prioritized, if there is insufficient stock of the item available to fulfill both purchase requests. A purchase order is generated for at least one of the first and second user purchase requests in accordance with the prioritizing. Related methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method operating at a server system is disclosed. The server hosts and electronic procurement system. In response to a user request to access a first item associated with the electronic procurement system, wherein the first item is unavailable, a second available item corresponding to the first item is identified. The second available item is displayed to the user in accordance with business rules associated with the user. A purchase order is generated for the displayed item. Related methods and systems are also disclosed.
