The announcement included:
- BST Insights: BST Global announced that its industry-first predictive insights tool for project and operations managers, which is powered by AI and machine learning, is now available for BST11 and can complement ERP systems like Deltek, Oracle and others. BST Global also demonstrated how it plans to leverage BST Insights in concert with the generative AI capabilities of Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft Power BI.

This new premium offering complements Audere’s team-based offering and will be released later this summer.
- BST Connect: A new product in BST Global’s project intelligence™ portfolio, BST Connect empowers citizen and professional developers to seamlessly connect business applications with Azure Logic Apps, drive process automation and efficiency with Power Automate, and embrace low-code/no-code development with Power Apps. BST11 has embraced the Microsoft Azure Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS), allowing users to easily connect BST Global products to other common business applications.
- BST11 ERP & BST11 Work Management: BST Global introduced the latest iterations of their BST11 ERP and BST11 Work Management offerings with updated features and capabilities. Besides enhancing the overall BST11 ERP experience, these new functionalities allow BST11 Work Management to seamlessly connect to leading ERP systems, mitigating change management while empowering project teams:
- The Project app for both offerings now includes Earned Value Management (EVM), so project managers can plan projects, adjust budgets and update earned value all in a consumer-grade experience, improving visibility of project performance and driving better outcomes.
- Both offerings now integrate with Resource Management powered by Audere. The cloud-based offering allows project managers, resource managers and project team members to collaborate on the delivery of projects, and is now fully integrated with BST11 to drive efficiency and visibility across the entire project team.
- Both offerings now leverage BST Connect:
- Our standard offering enables citizen developers using BST11 ERP to connect, automate, and develop business apps and streamline business processes using low-code/no-code Microsoft Power Automate and Power Apps.
- Building on the capabilities of the BST Connect standard offering, our premium offering empowers professional developers to integrate directly with BST11 ERP and BST11 Work Management in real-time using Microsoft Logic Apps, REST APIs, webhooks and Azure Service Bus.
- The new BST11 ERP Billing app lets project managers review and approve prebills on their mobile phones, tablets and desktop environments in a consumer-grade experience, driving efficiency across the billing process and improving cash flow. This app will officially be released later this summer.
