SOA Summer School 2010

Business Process Management (BPM) is about process modeling, execution and management. You can achieve continuous process improvement by constantly monitoring the situation and taking corrective action. For this, it is required to get business and IT working together to achieve business objectives, making IT more responsive to changing business needs and conditions.

When the business process requires change, the ability to reflect those with IT systems, need to be seamless, without manual intervention by IT experts.
