BD-S

Salesforce OmniStudio & Digital Forms

Turn complex forms and processes into guided digital services

Many government and enterprise processes still run on long PDF forms and manual assessment. BD-S uses Salesforce and OmniStudio to rebuild them as guided digital services: dynamic, validated, integrated and accessible, for anonymous and authenticated users.

The business problem

What this solves

Forms are where citizens and customers meet the organisation, and where the friction shows.

Long static forms

PDF and paper forms that ask every question of everyone and are returned incomplete.

Re-keying and validation by hand

Data arrives unstructured, is checked manually and entered again into the system of record.

Every form built from scratch

No reusable components, so each new form is a new project.

Accessibility retrofitted

Forms that fail accessibility requirements and exclude the people who most need the service.

What we deliver

What we build with OmniStudio

  • Guided and dynamic forms

    OmniScripts with conditional steps, branching and inline validation so people only answer what applies to them.

  • Reusable components

    FlexCards and shared OmniScript elements that make the next form faster than the last.

  • Data and integration

    DataRaptors and Integration Procedures reading and writing Salesforce data and calling MuleSoft APIs mid-process.

  • Document generation

    Letters, notices, permits and certificates generated from the process data.

  • Anonymous and authenticated journeys

    Public lodgement without an account, or authenticated journeys with saved progress and tracking in Experience Cloud.

  • Accessible, tested experiences

    WCAG 2.2 AA patterns, plain language and assistive-technology testing built into delivery.

Implementation

How we approach forms modernisation

Start with the process, not the form

Map the decision logic and data behind the form so the digital version can shorten it.

Design for reuse

Component libraries, naming standards and patterns so a program of forms stays consistent.

Validate at the point of entry

Rules, lookups and integration checks during the journey so submissions arrive complete.

Measure completion

Analytics on drop-off and completion to keep improving the journey after launch.

Integration

Forms are only useful when the data lands somewhere. Integration Procedures write to Salesforce and, through MuleSoft, to records, payment and legacy systems so a submission becomes a case, licence or application without manual handling.

Governance and security

Governance and security

  • Guest user and authenticated access models reviewed for data exposure
  • Version control and release management for OmniStudio components
  • Validation rules and integration calls tested in every release
  • Accessibility statements and testing evidence maintained per form

Ongoing support

Ongoing support

Form programs grow. Under the managed service BD-S maintains component libraries, adds forms, adjusts rules as policy changes and monitors integrations.
