What Is Business Process Management (BPM)?

Business process management (BPM) defines, enables, and manages the exchange of enterprise information through the semantics of a business process view, which involves employees, customers, partners, applications, and databases. BPM systems provide managers with a monitoring capacity to understand and adapt processes for improving business performance. Business process management should not be confused with business performance management, also referred to as BPM.

Business Process Management Business Drivers and Benefits

  • Streamline work processes.
  • Automate policy assembly.
  • Improve management of work in progress.
  • Improved process efficiency.
  • Create a central place for managing workflow tasks.

Business Process Management Risks

  • The greatest challenge in BPM involves the cultural changes that companies must make towards the new strategy of managing by process. That's why the new roles, structures, and responsibilities within your organization must be carefully designed to highlight—and maximize—the benefits of BPM.
  • Make sure your BPM vendor clearly explains the benefits and pitfalls of process design issues.
  • Don't neglect to obtain user buy-in at the outset of the project. By involving users from the very beginning, you benefit from their opportunity to review the application and the user interface.
  • BPM doesn't stop at implementation. Business users must manage and monitor the execution of processes in an ongoing manner.
