7 Steps to Choosing an Enterprise BPM Solution

This whitepaper outlines a systematic approach to selecting an enterprise Business Process Management (BPM) solution. It details seven essential steps that organizations should follow to ensure they choose the right BPM software for their needs. The first step involves identifying and documenting current business processes, which is crucial for understanding specific requirements. Consulting key stakeholders is the second step, emphasizing the importance of gathering input from various departments to refine the selection criteria. The third step focuses on creating a tailored list of technical criteria based on the organization's unique needs rather than generic vendor offerings. Setting realistic implementation goals is the fourth step, which includes estimating timelines and measuring potential business benefits. The fifth step involves selecting vendors and conducting proof of concept (POC) tests to validate that the solutions meet established criteria. Each step is designed to help organizations navigate the complexities of BPM selection effectively.
