Where work comes apart, and what holds it.
Each of these is an operational problem rather than a product category. They are genuinely different problems and continON answers them with genuinely different mechanisms — but all five run on the same organization model, the same permission model and the same records. Start from the one you actually have.
The five operational problems
When one need crosses five departments
A need is raised on the floor, approved by a manager, ordered from a supplier, received short at the bay, booked as a purchase and posted in Finance.
What holdsThe record. It is not re-entered at each handover, and the two units missing from the delivery are still on it when Finance reads the posting.

When people join, move and leave
Responsibility has to survive the person currently carrying it — including the week nobody is carrying it.
What holdsThe seat. Access, approval routing, notification targeting and scheduling all resolve against the position in the unit, so a handover is an assignment ending and another starting.
When the rule changes
The way the organization says work should happen has to become what actually happens to the next request — without a development project in between.
What holdsThe definition. States, actor rules, bound forms and the activities each transition fires are stored as metadata and read at run time, so a published change is what the next request does.
When a system stays outside
Part of the estate is not going to be replaced, and should not have to be — but it still has to take part in the work.
What holdsThe boundary. Selected data is queried where it already lives and selected credentials are held by the organization rather than by a person, and what crosses is named, dated and revocable.
When another place is added
Several sites have to run the same way without becoming the same site — and a new one has to start working without a project of its own.
What holdsThe shape. The licence, the permission groups, the lookups and the Builder definitions are held once for the organization; stock, sectors, gates, slotting and staffing belong to each place.

What all five are standing on.
- One organization model
- Units nest to any depth, a position placed in a unit is a seat, and a person occupies that seat for a period. Every one of the five resolves something against it. Organization & positions
- One identity and permission model
- Permission groups bundle application and privilege grants and are bound to positions in the chart, so access is a property of the seat rather than of an account. Identity & access
- One data layer
- Saved queries are named objects that feed a form’s lookups, a report’s rows, a dashboard widget and a document’s merge fields — one definition, not four fetches. Query & data-source builder
- One governed document store
- What a process generates is filed where access is already decided, rather than attached to an email and lost in a folder. Document management
- One ledger
- Operational movements post against the same chart of accounts wherever and whenever they happened. General Ledger
Which is why the second problem you bring is not an integration project. It is the same records, read by a different part of the same platform. How the platform holds together
