In the proceedit value chain (Optimization
> Automation > µOutsourcing), the second step, Automation, is the crucial one.
BPM
& BPMS are the basic methodology and
technology applied to automate business processes. A BPM Process can be understood as a movie that organizes the
coordinated work of different actors: humans, applications and devices with a
common aim (see the figure below).
The SOA
layer facilitates the integration of business processes with the different
corporate applications and content providers, not only in order to use the
documents and data registered in the BPM Process, but also to allow saving documents and data created or
modified along the process, and registering transactions on these applications
(e.g. taking a picture) at a certain moment when the process has all the
information and approvals required to do it.
Most of the business
processes in organizations require heavy interaction with their legacy
corporate systems. Often, these systems are still supported by Cobol applications running on old
mainframe technology difficult to interact with. In these scenarios, migration
to modern Java based applications
running on powerful and stable x86/Linux
systems is recommend. proceedit has the methodology & technology needed to
perform this migration onto a 100
% automated, 100 % iso-functional and very progressive risk-free (no
Big-bang) way.
Automation is the
only way to secure the potential savings obtained during the OPEX phase by fixing the working procedures and,
therefore, avoiding future deviations on users’ behavior and making the
operative excellence gained during the process optimization step sustainable.
What is more,
Automation is the only effective way to allow the third step of the proceedit value chain to be applied: the micro-Outsourcing of
certain tasks of the process in certain circumstances defined by business rules
applied on the fly.
