FeaturesEnables organizations to be agile , informed, and make the best business decisions with confidence.At the very core of BPM, is an organization's need for clarity and holistic intelligence about their processes -past and present, as well as future. To gain this kind of insight, the simplistic analytics offered in most BPM solutions will fall short. Many organizations are realizing that they can implement workflow without advanced analytics (BPA) capabilities,-but they can't be sure that their processes will be the most advantageous to their organization. How do they know they have come up with the best solution? And when business conditions change, should their business processes should also change? It's like putting an engine in a car: the car will run, but is it headed in the right direction? BPM and Analytics-Three Required Elements for SuccessREPORTING:At the most fundamental level, organizations are offered reporting as a way to detect their current and historic business problems, as well as track and measure their processes to gain intelligence about their operations. ANALYSIS:At the next level, more proactive capabilities are added, including modeling and simulation. This addition means companies are not just evaluating past activities, but are actually analyzing the impact of future events on their business. With these enhanced capabilities, organizations are enabled to leverage their BPM system in their strategic planning and develop contingency plans with new sets of rules and processes to combat possibly opportunistic and threatening scenarios. CLOSED LOOP BPA:BPA added to BPM offers a complete round-trip solution that builds on the core analytics, modeling, and simulation capabilities with a final piece: goal management. The addition of goal management enables goal-directed actions. This means that business objectives can be defined and leveraged in operational processes and that strategy can be automatically translated into tactics and actions within a workflow process. Goal management links objectives with business rules, which means organizations aren't constrained by what's in the rules engine or by who has access to it. Goals can be driven by operations and adjustments to processes can be triggered when out-of-tolerance conditions arise. Adjustments are pre-tested and ready to be implemented by the system itself. |
