Process management has taken an important role in many companies. Numerous groups, including process improvement, cost accounting, software development and SOA engineering, have interest in the results of capturing processes. The key here is the capture of the business processes by easy and user-friendly means from personnel with the know-how. This is where the process management approaches often fail as a result of a one-tool strategy.
Here is where the "Best of Breed" approach of BPM-Xchange comes in. BPM-X Designer extends Microsoft Visio by making it methods-based, but still user-friendly. As a standard tool and part of Microsoft Office, a wide user acceptance can be attained. Data bank-based optimization tools like Mega, Corporate Modeller or ARISTM support experts in the process analysis. BPM-X Browser makes possible easy and cost-efficient publishing. Roles-based portals like Control from Nimbus support the specific publishing. The elaborate activity-based costing from Horvarth and Partners extends the spectrum.
The BPM-X Converter ties together not only modelling and optimization tools, but also workflow systems and process engines, through the business processes in the implementation. BPM-X Converter converts process models in the automated workflow of GFT Inspire. Process engines from SAP, Oracle and Microsoft are also connected to the modelling tools. Thus, the conversion of processes is considerably accelerated.
