assistance/cooperation/collaboration I thought of those things, as well as the idea of "partnership" but it still doesn't seem to mean anything really concrete.

Seems awfully simple Anthony...but I think \"assistance\" could well fit your context.
See:
http://www.rms.net/

\"Consulting Services
Professional Assistance for IT Business Mgmt Issues\"

Sorry, but that\'s the best I can do. Hopefully, another colleague will come up with something better for you.

agree AnneM (X) : collaboration - Anthony, if you do a google search with "front office" "back office" "collaboration", you will see lots of examples of how it does make sense

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "I was a bit late awarding these points because to tell the truth AnneM was the one who gave the most helpful answer with the Google search of the three terms together - hers was, however, a comment in your answer, and it appears I can't give points for a comment! So you get to score the points for getting in there first, even though in the end I used the term "collaboration" (perhaps you owe AnneM a virtual coffee now! :-) ). I since discovered that that is the term they use within the company, too. Thanks everyone for helping out. Anthony"

poor "Spanglish"...

En todo caso, en medio de semejante redacción, me parece que esta suite brinda apoyo en el proceso de toma de decisiones para desarrollar "front-office", así como apoyo en la planificación y la colaboración. Es decir, no creo que el proceso de toma de decisiones sea relativo a las dos últimas tareas.
