Vitria's Operational Intelligence Platform Achieves Key Deployments -- M3O Suite Brings Visibility and Insight into Business Activities, Enabling Real Time Action

Gary E Smith - THE BPM NETWORK — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 12:41:00 GMT

Vitria's Operational Intelligence Platform Achieves Key Deployments -- M3O Suite Brings Visibility and Insight into Business Activities, Enabling Real Time Action

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Vitria Technology, Inc., the leading provider of Operational Intelligence (OI) products and solutions, today announced key customer deployments and success in establishing its OI platform as an emerging enterprise category.

Based on Vitria's M3O Suite, the OI platform empowers business users to gain critical visibility and situational insight into their business, increase control over operations and take action all in real time. Vitria's OI platform enables business leaders to make better decisions when they matter most--before opportunities have faded or problems have escalated. Organizations in the process of deploying Operational Intelligence solutions across multiple industries, include: Cablevision, Brasil Telecom, Deutsche Bank, Hypo Real Estate Bank, Iberia Airlines and several US government agencies.

"Companies today need better insight into business processing activities, through real time business event processing and analytics that make it possible to take action as needed to adapt to unexpected challenges," says Bob Meindl, Vitria Senior Vice President. "Vitria's Operational Intelligence platform enables companies to reduce costs associated with delays, better manage risk, and ensure higher customer satisfaction."

Vitria created an OI platform that both integrates and moves beyond the capabilities of business intelligence, business process management and business activity monitoring. Working directly with customers and through partners focused on key vertical markets, Vitria's Operational Intelligence platform fosters true business agility by strengthening collaboration between business and IT.

"As many as three-quarters of all organizations fail to execute against their business strategies even under the best of circumstances, let alone in today's more volatile business climate," says Janelle Hill, Research VP, Gartner, Inc. "Real time, situational visibility of in-flight business transactions and customer interactions is needed to more closely manage operational execution to strategic objectives. Leading edge IT trends like role-based interactive models (as user interfaces into real time operations), cloud computing and social/ collaborative technologies all contribute to business process optimization."

Built on an open Web architecture, Vitria's M3O Suite can be delivered in the Cloud or on-premise, enabling on-demand scaling, reduced IT spending and the ability to marshal resources for a greener footprint. M3O Suite was named a leader in the October 2008 independent report, "Forrester Wave: Integration-Centric Business Process Management Suites, Q4 2008."

"Vitria's Operational Intelligence capabilities are unique in their ability to rapidly and dynamically meet and discover new customer needs, specifically via collaborative business process modeling and integration with semantic information management technologies," says Brooke Stevenson, CEO, Spry Technologies, a systems integrator providing OI solutions to US government agencies.

Vitria's OI platform enables companies to respond to rapid changes in their business activities. With the ability to visualize information from diverse data sources, business users can analyze events in real time to gain real insight and take action by leveraging existing operational IT systems and triggering automated processes and workflows aligned with business objectives.

Global 360 Announces viewPoint™ Applications – Delivering the Industry’s First Persona-based BPM

Gary E Smith - THE BPM NETWORK — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 01:40:00 GMT

Global 360 Announces viewPoint™ Applications – Delivering the Industry’s First Persona-based BPM

Persona-based BPM Can Reduce Deployment Time and Costs, and Increase Individual Productivity by 40%

Gartner BPM Summit

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global 360, a leading provider of Process and Document Management solutions, today announced viewPoint™, the industry’s first Persona-based Business Process Management (BPM) approach for delivering applications that address the needs of each user in the process.

To develop its Persona-based BPM approach, Global 360 leveraged extensive field research conducted with user- and interaction-design experts for over a year. The research showed that most BPM systems fail to adequately address the needs of all users – especially end users – and instead focus primarily on system developers. The result is often inflexible systems that force users to adapt to the system, rather than the other way around.

Unlike other BPM approaches that focus on driving process developer efficiency, Global 360’s Persona-based approach is delivered through out-of-the-box, viewPoint applications that address the unique tasks, tools, and views for each of the three specific personas that are critical to the success of any BPM initiative. These are the Builder – the developer of the system, the End-User – individuals using the application, and the Manager – the overseer of the system and the operation.

“Creating usable end-user applications typically accounts for more than 40% of a BPM system’s deployment cost and can influence as much as 60% of the project’s total return on investment,” said David Mitchell, CEO, Global 360. “We think there’s a smarter and faster way for BPM customers to spend their money and achieve ROI, so we developed viewPoint applications that deliver customized end-user applications, right out-of-the-box.”

viewPoint applications dramatically improve the productivity of each type of user as they interact with the system by giving them their own unique “view” that includes just the information and capabilities they need to get their work done. Global 360 viewPoint applications empower users by the following:

Closing the communication gap between the builders of the BPM system and the end users. While the builder wants the ability to create and deploy an agile process, the end-users want an agile user experience. Too often, this relationship is out of balance. viewPoint delivers role-based applications that allow each user to easily understand and track their work progress, and each manager to gain visibility to work and change priorities on the fly.
Reducing time-to-proficiency for users. Leveraging extensive research, Global 360’s Persona-based BPM delivers out-of-the-box applications with functionality designed for specific jobs, so every user gets just what is important, vs. a long list of features. This results in simpler, yet more powerful applications and allows users to focus on the work, not the work-arounds.
Delivering a system designed to make people more productive, not just the system. Persona-based BPM is the first BPM system to focus on the ergonomics of the user experience, delivering an optimized user experience based on how work is done and how to work better. Persona-based BPM delivers applications that are designed to optimize usability by providing a comfortable and efficient user experience.

Through Global 360’s Persona-based BPM and viewPoint applications, builders can automate processes more effectively, end-users can be more productive in their job, and managers can gain greater visibility into the business, enabling them to make smarter decisions and improve business performance.

“We have brought ‘user ergonomics’ to our BPM system,” added Mitchell. When a user in any role, in any industry, logs into a Global 360 BPM solution, the software fits the way they need to work. With Persona-based BPM and viewPoint applications, Global 360 improves your processes by empowering your people.”

Global 360 will demonstrate viewPoint applications for the first time at the Gartner BPM Summit from March 23-25, 2009 in San Diego, California. Visit Global 360 at booth #10. ViewPoint applications will be available to customers as part of the Global 360 BPM Suite in June 2009.

Pegasystems Announces Mortgage Industry Solution to Significantly Reduce Loan Workout Cycle Times and Provide Superior Customer Service

Pegasystems Announces Mortgage Industry Solution to Significantly Reduce Loan Workout Cycle Times and Provide Superior Customer Service

BorrowerAssist Enables Servicers to Adapt and Change Rapidly to Address President Obama’s Homeowners Affordability and Stability Plan and Other Government Programs

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pegasystems (NASDAQ:PEGA), the leader in Business Process Management (BPM) software, today announced its new BorrowerAssist™ solution to help mortgage lenders and servicers quickly comply with rapidly-changing regulations put forth by new government programs designed to solve the mortgage crisis. Using this functionality, financial services organizations can service customers across all channels and quickly determine the optimal loan workout strategy to maximize customer satisfaction and returns.

The credit crisis, falling home prices, and the worst job loss rate in 25 years have converged to create an avalanche of troubled loans. New government programs designed to help up to nine million homeowners avoid foreclosure, such as President Obama’s recently announced "Homeowner Affordability and Stability Plan," offer cost sharing and incentives to mortgage lenders and servicers that modify loan terms to reduce homeowners’ monthly payments. But these programs have also created an unprecedented number of loan workout requests that have flooded customer service channels, straining lenders’ ability to service their customers effectively.

“The rules have changed. New government programs offer promise to borrowers and provide incentives to lenders, but have created complex business processing rules,” said Craig Focardi, senior research director, banking at TowerGroup. “Financial institutions need technology that allows them to quickly adapt to meet the requirements of these new government programs, while also continuing to deliver high-quality customer service. Agile BPM technology provides a strong option for these institutions to meet the new regulations, as well as prepare for future programs that may be enacted.”

Pegasystems’ BorrowerAssist integrates mortgage servicing workflows with a world class rules engine to drive the end-to-end loan workout process, and enables providers to continuously adjust to changing regulations and evolving industry best practices. Using SmartBPM^® with Pegasystems’ patented Build for Change^® technology, BorrowerAssist significantly reduces time-to-decision and drives up to 40 percent improvement in productivity.

Key Capabilities

Pegasystems’ Build for Change technology offers lenders and servicers the agility and scalability required to respond to today’s challenges. Capabilities include:

End-to-end loan workout case management
Multi-channel borrower inquiry management
Multi-program workout qualification and decisioning
Operational transparency and workout activity reporting
Integration with and ability to leverage existing legacy systems

“Financial institutions must respond to the flood of customer service requests in a short period of time, and the ability to automate is a key factor in addressing this surge in activity,” said Willy Fox, vice president, Industry Solutions, Pegasystems. “Our powerful SmartBPM solutions empower financial institutions to make better decisions, streamline processes, have greater transparency in their case management procedures and realize greater productivity, which is a powerful proposition to address such rapidly changing programs.”

Gartner Says Enterprises Can Experience As Much As a 20 Percent Cost Savings Within First Year of Using BPM to Improve Business Processes

Gary E Smith - THE BPM NETWORK — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 11:13:00 GMT

Gartner Says Enterprises Can Experience As Much As a 20 Percent Cost Savings Within First Year of Using BPM to Improve Business Processes

BPM Best Practices and Tactics To Be Discussed at the Gartner BPM Summit, March 23-25 in San Diego

STAMFORD, Conn., March 16, 2009 —

As companies try to find cost optimization opportunities during the economic downturn, business process management (BPM) investments can provide a cost savings of as much as 20 percent within the first year of implementation, according to Gartner, Inc. Analysts have said enterprises can achieve the payback from their BPM implementation within a year.

“Economic woes are driving increased usage of BPM as a cost-cutting mechanism for survival. We are seeing one-third of companies increasing their investments in BPM,” said Michele Cantara, research vice president at Gartner. “BPM makes business processes visible to both business managers and IT, allowing them to work together and change processes more quickly and effectively. In today’s troubled economy, companies need to continually reduce costs and rapidly react to market changes.”

At the upcoming Gartner BPM Summit, to be held March 23-25 in San Diego, analysts will be providing detailed analysis on the best practices and tactics companies can employ to have a successful BPM strategy. This event follows Gartner’s BPM Summit that was held in London in February of this year.

At the London event, attendees were asked about the impact the economy was having on their business. Gartner estimates that 70 percent of attendees were from companies that are in "survival" mode, and their organizations view BPM as a lifeline keeping them above water in the economic crisis. Approximately 20 percent of attendees said they were "thriving with BPM" — using BPM as a catalyst to grow their business. These were typically organizations that had successfully implemented BPM projects in the past. Some were moving resulting cost savings into other BPM projects for ongoing business process improvement, rather than survival. Approximately 10 percent of attendees were from organizations that viewed BPM as a weapon for capitalizing on transformational opportunities unavailable to beleaguered competitors in this recessionary environment.

“When companies are in survival mode, they tend to slash head count and funding for programs to cut costs to still deliver on their earnings promises. This slashing approach can derail critical business processes and actually cost the company more money. Because BPM makes processes visible, it also helps companies do cost cutting with surgical precision,” said Ms. Cantara.

Gartner recommends that companies use BPM, a discipline that optimizes the performance of end-to-end business processes (interdepartmental functions, partners, suppliers and service providers), to confront business challenges and complex business relationships. While there is tremendous upside to using BPM to realize significant cost savings, if companies do not manage the process correctly, it can result in failed initiatives.

“Too many user organizations are adopting BPM technologies without applying BPM disciplines via the business process competency center (BPCC) and find that their efforts do not deliver the promised results, and their BPM initiatives will subsequently be disbanded,” said Elise Olding, research director at Gartner.

Organizations that plan for and resource the effort to establish and evolve the BPCC will be able to move from discrete BPM projects to transformational BPM programs in six to 12 months. Organizations that do not establish a BPCC will find their BPM efforts stagnating at the project level and delivering meager results. BPMS products will feature reporting capabilities and automated assessments specifically designed to help BP directors manage the BPCC and enhance organizations' BPM maturity levels.

Gartner analysts said that in some ways, BPM is no different from any other management effort. Technology is only a small part of the problem. Changing the behavior of process participants is the bigger challenge. Projects can get bogged down in organizational politics and can lose the way amid a swamp of change management and communication techniques.

“Some organizations get mired in debates about who should drive the effort, who should own the end-to-end process, how to define processes, and how to prioritize which process improvement efforts to tackle first,” said Ms. Cantara. “Yet, there are some organizations that understand BPM and can sustain continuous process improvement. These organizations are able to cope with the thorny problems of getting started with BPM, affecting organizational change, using appropriate technologies, as well as staffing and maturing BPM efforts.”

More detailed analysis will be presented at the Gartner BPM Summit taking place March 23-25 in San Diego. The Summit offers the latest insight on creating and sustaining an agile process-powered organization. Analysts will discuss how companies can align business strategy and IT to maximize operational agility, providing new opportunities to expand revenue and productivity. More information and a complete agenda can be found at www.gartner.com/us/bpm. Members of the media can register by contacting christy.pettey@gartner.com.

In the Gartner report “It’s a Matter of Survival: Use BPM to Drive Out Costs” Gartner presents a series of real-life examples in which BPM has helped organizations survive by identifying ways to improve business processes and cut costs at the same time. The report is available on Gartner’s Website at http://www.gartner.com/DisplayDocument?ref=g_search&id=911912&subref=simplesearch.

In “Highlights from BPM Summit, London, February 2009”, Gartner analysts review some of the key findings that came out of last month’s Summit. The report can be accessed from Gartner’s Website at http://www.gartner.com/DisplayDocument?ref=g_search&id=912924&subref=simplesearch.
