eSigma, based in Chicago, IL, has completed the first phase of its product definition roadmap for allowing businesses to collaborate electronically utilizing the Internet for connectivity. Using eSigma.com, organizations can publish and search for business processes at no charge.

The company, founded by former Tradex Engineer and Harbinger Solutions Architect, Troy Haaland, has been operating quietly for over 3 years without taking outside investment. "We're at the doorstep of an estimated $9.1 billion dollar market for companies that will use the Internet to collaborate in ways once thought improbable which are now inevitable," said Mr. Haaland.
