BPM Suite

Composite Applications
To address the shortcomings of pure-play software, the BPM suite has emerged to deliver a variety of process, knowledge, and analytics technologies in a unified package, enabling organizations to quickly and efficiently build composite process applications.

A more comprehensive approach to BPM, it provides all of the Process Management capabilities of BPM software, plus the following functionality:

• Knowledge Management— allows users to share tasks, content, documents, and notifications through knowledge communities
• Document Management— provides a system for
  storing and securing electronic documents, images, and other files
• Collaborative Tools— remove intra- and inter-departmental communication barriers through discussion forums, dynamic workspaces, and message boards
• Business Analytics— enable managers to identify business issues, trends, and opportunities with reports and dashboards and react accordingly
• Work Portal— gives users a productive workspace for managing tasks, content, forms, documents, notifications, and reminders

Applications built with BPM suites are also user-friendly (minimizing user training), personalized (delivering secure, unique content to each user), scalable (expanding to meet the needs of the department, the enterprise, or the value chain), and web-based (making them accessible to users anytime, anyplace). By leveraging information, they allow users to make better business decisions and achieve better business outcomes. These applications don't just manage business processes; they solve business problems.
