Business Process Management (BPM)

Business Process Management (BPM) is a management discipline that empowers organizations to document, automate and considerably optimize their business processes to increase efficiency and reduce business costs. BPM suite is a collection of integrated tools that supports to design, analyze and speed up your business process and Business Intelligence (BI) to deliver agility in a collaborative environment.

HOW BPM HELPS YOU

In the present time, the automation of processes is a key enabler for organizations to manage transformational changes, reduce operational risks and increase consistency in their business. This certainly saves time and eliminates some of the operational headaches.

BPM can help fuel business growth in many ways. It helps organizations to improve operational excellence and transparency to fulfil the needs of their customers in a more effective style.  In fact, it has become a strategic tool used for performance management within business processes, helping the organizations to automatically discover the issues/ opportunities and kick-off corrective actions.

To rid from manual routine tasks, many businesses are using BPM and it is not only automating their core processes to eliminate bottlenecks, but also helping in:

• Improving company responsiveness
• Addressing important clients demands quickly as well as critical collaborative issues
• Enhancing efficiency of business processes
• Increasing  productivity, faster actions and collaborations on major issues through automated process

WHY BPM IS A PRIORITY NOW?

• Manages and automates the entire process life cycle, from modeling and execution to measurement and optimization.
• Facilitates coordination of tasks and data synchronization across existing systems.
• Helps processing human task activities, streamlining tasks and timelines related to a business process.
• Provides you real-time feedback about work-in-progress to help you control and monitor process operations.
• Examines process outcomes to performance targets, and continuously refines and fine tunes in-line business process adjustments.
• Makes processes more adaptive, efficient, dynamic, agile and noticeable by ensuring that every process step is explicitly defined, monitored over time, and optimized for optimum efficiency.

• Empowers developers and business users to collaboratively work to rapidly modify systems and processes.

BPM? WORKFLOW? WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?

BPM and workflow are both online tools for business efficiency, but very separate entities different in their capability and operability reflecting information technology professionals and BI practitioners’ interest.

Workflow is actually more related to chronologizing of events, activities in an application specific manner, through a predefined set of instructions either with software based one or automated procedures or manual work-based.

BPM is more concerned with the definition, implementation and management of different types of business processes that are independently defined of any single type of application. BPM, called actually a workflow in a superset, can also be differentiated using its ability to co-ordinate many activities through a wide channel of applications without sacrificing ease of control.
