Making the Case for BPM : A Benefits Checklist

Business Process Management (BPM) has become a top priority for companies in 2006 and 2007. A recent survey of more than 1,400 CIOs revealed that the top business priority identified by their company was business process improvement. Of course, there are many options for improving business processes – ranging from complete process re-engineering to adopting new process management methodologies, such as Lean Six Sigma, or adding new capabilities to existing systems. An investment in BPM software, coupled with new approaches to project implementation, enables companies to institutionalize a sustainable business process improvement program.
