Business Process Management

 

Business processes underlie all organizational efforts and the effectiveness with which they are carried out contributes directly to critical business goals such as customer retention, length of time it takes to fulfill a product order or service or regulatory compliance.

 

Business Process Management (BPM) is an IT-enabled management discipline that promotes organizational agility and supports the efforts of people to drive process change and rapid innovation. As such, BPM supports the alignment of IT and business activities both within the organization and with business partners and suppliers.

The BPM Life Cycle

Planning: identifying a prioritized list of candidate BPM projects, identifying key stakeholders and establishing governance.

Model and Design: documenting the steps of the target business process and assessing where integration, automation or workflow redesign will improve efficiencies or increase agility.

Develop and Deploy: mapping the business needs onto the underlying technologies, abstracting business rules to a layer independent of the systems and applications and joining the logical components into a composite application that combines the functionality of underlying systems.

Manage and Interact: interacting with the process while watching for and resolving potentially disruptive events and managing the business process solution to ensure that the running process continues to meet availability standards.

Analyze and Optimize: monitoring and measuring improvements both across business processes to optimize the business practices and policies that support organizational goals.
