- A high-powered, rapid development environment: Using Agile, working software is delivered frequently in sprints. Using a high-powered BPMS further increases the rate of software production in a shorter time frame, maximizing productivity.
- Iterative approach: Agile’s iterative approach reduces risk by enabling customer review and buy-in in short sprints. And when combined with a BPMS, ASD further enhances user engagement, feedback and overall ownership. Agile also enhances customer buy-in as stakeholders and developers alike feel a strong sense of ownership as the project unfolds.
- Strong interfacing capabilities: Because applications do not exist on an island, an enterprise class BPMS provides strong capabilities that enable rapid interfacing with both internal and external partners. A powerful BPMS incorporates rapid connectivity, configuration and testing of integration through adapters and out-of-the-box support for numerous inter operability standards to enable integration.
- Configuration-based development: Declarative User Interfaces (UIs), visual development and wizards inherent to a BPMS reduce required coding, simplifying the process and cutting development time.
- Strong support for re-use and code generation: A BPMS offers a development environment rich with libraries of pre-built, re-usable services and visual controls that boost development, testing and maintenance. In this environment, users can easily extend and re-use newly built services. Agile supports the re-use of hundreds of pre-built services, enabling data transformation and mapping among various resources.
- Process intelligence: Constant measurement, proactive visibility and bench marking against target performance are key tenets of a performance-driven culture. A BPMS provides strong process intelligence capabilities that enable continuous process improvement, nurturing a performance driven culture. Look for a BPMS platform that offers rapid, visual UI design, development and instrumentation of source data to automate visibility requirements.
- Process orchestration: Process orchestration is the discipline of stitching together different services, spanning multiple applications, to introduce new, broader services. A BPMS offers graphical capabilities that enable orchestration with minimal coding. In addition to improving process control through automation, BPMS orchestration offers benefits, such as process tracking, monitoring and improved visibility. These capabilities can boost the impact of Agile methods.
- Human workflow: Workflow extends process orchestration by enabling rich human integration and workflow management. The ability to rapidly design UIs and configure human workflow routing rules supports the goal of delivering useful software within an Agile sprint.
