Process Automation

Constant business change drives business process integration. The result is the continual integration, de-integration, and re-integration at the business process and associated application levels to respond to business pressures. If costs, time to market, resources, excessive paperwork, and process latency are recurring themes, enterprise workflow and business process automation will enable greater response and control with reduced delivery cycles and improved customer satisfaction.

Enterprise processes are the vital systems a business depends on to maintain and deliver its products or services. Today's business processes span departments, groups, and applications and draw data from multiple sources. While they are most critical to the enterprise health, they also pose the greatest challenge to manage. In today's distributed world, businesses need to monitor and manage all the components of their business processes on a real time basis

Businesses need a way to effectively integrate and automate internal processes and mission-critical applications, using the Internet as a backbone to further extend management of business processes across the virtual enterprise to supply chain partners. They need to create a modular, scalable and flexible integration environment that provides the ability to make transformation and routing changes through a high-level language or graphical user interface (GUI). They simultaneously need to affect a low-risk, non-disruptive approach to accessing applications, both packaged and legacy. Because enterprise process management adds an independent, noninvasive layer, nothing has to be torn apart while the integration solution is being developed. Clients can start by integrating legacy and ERP applications, then global divisions, then legacy and Web applications, and so on. Mainframe and other legacy systems already running efficiently can continue to shoulder their part of the workload without interruption, connecting seamlessly to newer Web and ERP applications.

The ultimate solution to this situation is an automated process engine with simplified business rule language, personalization capabilities, and the ability to invoke application components. The process engine is essentially an intelligent switching device producing a dramatic increase in operations dimensionality, an ability to launch the right application for the right user at the right time on the right network, wherever in the world it may be. Enterprise process management will create company cultures that simultaneously benefit from more precise controls while welcoming new process improvements.
