Abstract

Business strategies and operations are driven by scores of ever-shifting factors: from legal regulations to technological innovations and an all present digitalization. Companies need a powerful management approach to achieve high performance in today’s digital world. In effect, they must know how and when to enhance their business processes, which processes are optimal candidates for intervention, and how to move rapidly from strategy to execution.

That’s where the Business Process Management-Discipline (BPM-Discipline) helps. It delivers significant business value by converting strategy into people and IT based execution at pace with certainty. The BPM-Discipline is implemented through the “process of process management”. An efficient and effective implementation of this management process is achieved using a holistic framework and reference model as well as related tools and templates.
