What is BPM (Business Process Management)?
What is business process management (BPM), you ask? We here at BP Logix think of the BPM definition a little more simply: business process management (BPM) is a practice of refining business processes that will improve process efficiency and profitability. Really, BPM is what it sounds like -- identifying, improving, and maintaining processes within a business.
Passing a routine piece of paper to a co-worker is a business process. It’s when you establish rules and a method, either a manual method or technology-driven method, to govern how and when that piece of paper is distributed that you enter the realm of BPM. That’s our specialty.
What BPM Is Not
It's not a job or role within the process. If you use BPM software to manage work orders, the person completing those orders is not managing BPM, they are working within it. However, the manager or admin who designs the work flow to get the job done is participating in BPM.
It’s important to be clear. Business process management does not tell you how to do your job. It informs your entire organization how a business process gets done efficiently and ensures it gets done right every time.
What is BPM Software?
What is BPM software? Well, we all want more time and money. Businesses are no different. BPM software is equipped with a series of BPM tools that help model, automate, execute, control, measure and optimize business processes which leads to process improvement and more profit. The setup takes some investment initially, but in the end, the benefits of BPM software are vast…not to mention measurable. BPM implementation will allow your organization to- eliminate redundancies
