What is Business Process Management?
The power of Business Process Management (BPM) and Workflow Process Automation is just incredible and most business organizations do not realise how this works. Organizations, by sheer habit follow the same process of information flow for years, without giving a thought to examine its efficiency. BPM first analyses the current business processes are, the ‘as-is’ state. As the next step, BPM determines what the optimal processes should be, the ‘to-be’ state. Once that is identified, mapped and streamlined the processes, BPM then automates the workflow to eliminate the unwanted steps that were previously repetitive and required human intervention.
The workflow automation process digital tools enable automation of repetitive activities. Digitalizing data and following the software steps is often seen as complicated, but learning how to use workflow automation software for improving performance is very simple. Getting used to a digital format and transferring all the right information to a digital format may take a bit of time, but that can be quickly learned. Every iteration of workflow automation improvement will bring ever higher benefits.
Besides, all the visible profits workflow automation software brings to users is a common incentive for people to learn how to make the most out of them
Business processes are meant for decision making. Workflow process, or at least automated rules-based workflow, includes the process of identifying and electronically documenting, or mapping, business processes and the rules associated with it. Then design systems to make rules-based decisions thereby speeding up your organization's ability to conduct business.
Today, business workflow is known to employees who perform various functions in different departments. Business processes are an invaluable asset for your organization. Time has come to automate the business process so that the business process life cycle becomes system driven rather than human driven. An intelligent BPM system should be able to integrate with various digital transformation platforms like Business Rule Engine, Digital Assistance, Predictive Analytic, Robotic Process Automation (RPA), etc. in order to gather precise data foundations for decision making.
Digital Transformation Platform Stack feeds the data point to BPM to make the Enterprise Business Processes Artificially Intelligent.
Key Benefits of Workflow Automation
The idea of these digital tools is to work with all the data sources that businesses have about clients, and perform business process activities without human intervention. It is must to understand that the intention is not to eliminate members who performed repetitive tasks, or replacing them by software; it is to get the benefit of their talent, experience and knowledge and focus on creativity and innovative tasks, that accelerates the process of improving organizational performance. Workflow automation has brought a lot of benefits for those who have applied it diligently. One of the key benefit is upgrading efficiency of the enterprise as a whole, as monotonous tasks are done by digital technologies while human forces focus on non-repetitive decision making tasks. Thus efficiency can be translated into more results in a shorter period of time with higher outputs.
