Business Process Management (BPM) The low cost alternative to leverage your SSA Baan investment
Agenda • Total Process Management for SSA Baan/non-Baan users • Case Study #1: Solar Turbines / Caterpillar • Corporate-wide Process Management to bridge Baan users to the rest of the company • Merging the ISO work instructions to the graphical business processes • Case Study #2: Herman Miller & Fujitsu • Extending DEM/BPM processes to the Extranet • Bridging DEM/BPM and e-learning assets • Leveraging BPM to facilitate Sarbanes-Oxley compliance & certification • Case Study #3: Fujitsu, MD Robotics & Comcast Cable • Workflow Automation of Baan & non-Baan processes
Why Process Management? There are two key reasons why Process Management has now become unavoidable: • Enterprises can no longer rely on the acquired wisdom and informal knowledge of "how things are done around here" — such knowledge is not always available as organizations restructure to maintain a competitive cost-base, and such approaches are typically too slow to adapt to accelerating change pressures from external forces. • As enterprises participate increasingly in e-business and e-commerce activities, their processes become exposed as never before and the need to be explicit in managing these external interactions becomes paramount.

Knowledge Management “The principles of Knowledge Management – that is, the concept of discovering the tacit knowledge within employees’ minds that has proven to be successful, making that knowledge accessible through others throughout the organization, and using advanced technology to accomplish this – will remain a sound and successful business practice” Kanter – Ten Hot IT Issues and what makes them hot
