Bravura Workforce Pattern
About Bravura Workforce Pattern
Bravura Workforce Pattern is a rapid deployment feature that can reduce implementation time by up to 75% by automating typical identity life cycle management requirements.

Initial and ongoing configuration of Identity Management is greatly minimized to lower costs and deployment time.
Example onboarding scenarios available include:
SoR-driven onboarding
Request-driven onboarding
Detecting and blocking rehires
Return from leave of absence

Advantages of Bravura Pattern
Replacing legacy IAM processes with Bravura Pattern has the following advantages over custom IAM implementations:
Optimized IAM processes: The business processes codified in Bravura Pattern have been optimized for fast service and robust internal controls, improving on the legacy processes in most organizations.
Complete functionality: When implementing a custom IAM system, organizations can only automate one or two processes at a time. Most start with onboarding, deactivation or access reviews and only later automate transfers, leaves of absence, name changes, rehire detection, etc. In contrast, Bravura Pattern allows organizations to automate a comprehensive set of identity lifecycle processes up front.
Efficient implementation: By adopting a pre-configured set of processes and policies, organizations minimize deployment risk, reduce implementation cost and shorten time to value.
Bravura Workforce Pattern feature components
The Bravura Workforce Pattern is implemented through the installation of the Refbuild.im_corporate component. This reference implementation installs and configures the components used to implement common corporate user management scenarios. The Refbuild.im_corporate component is divided into two main components: Refbuild.im_corporate_functional, which includes functional components; and Refbuild.im_corporate_scenario, which includes scenario components.
