Fujitsu: Interstage Business Process Manager 7.1

www.fujitsu.com/global/services/software/interstage/products/bpm/

 

Fujitsu's Interstage Business Process Manager has supported Business Process Modeling Notations (BPMN) since the 7.1 release in August of 2005. In December, Interstage Business Process Manager Studio was announced as the first stand-alone process modeler that support both BPMN as well as the newly ratified XPDL 2.0 standard for storing and exchange of BPMN diagrams. "Support for BPMN enhances the readability of process diagrams and reduces the training time necessary for users of the system." says Keith Swenson, Vice President of Research and Development at Fujitsu Software Corporation. "The new Studio provides business users with a familiar Visio-like graphical modeling tool. In addition it offers IT personnel the power of an Eclipse-based modeling environment along with both off-line and on-line process design capabilities. We see adoption of both BPMN and XPDL being important to the security of our customer's investments in BPM technology."

Our underlying approach to business process analysis has always begun with a focus on the business analyst’s ability to quickly and easily document and analyze process flows in a consistent and easy to understand notation. BPMN provides a non-proprietary, solid foundation for approaching business process documentation from the most logical starting point - the business analyst - and easily translating it into an IT-centric, execution view supported by standards such as BPEL4WS. The coming BPMN 1.0 standard is a natural extension of our emphasis on providing tools that enable support for leading standards and methodologies. We believe that the integration of BPMN into the iGrafx suite of process management capabilities will add significant value to our customers. BPMN will enhance their ability to rapidly model, analyze, and implement changes to their business processes.

Ken Carraher, President iGrafx

IBM believes there is benefit in unifying the various business process modeling notations. Taking a business users perspective, IBM plans to work with OMG to augment UML's modeling capabilities, using the concepts in BPMN. IBM also believes that business process modeling needs to be integrated with other business models, such as policy and rules, information, organization, and observation. Most importantly, IBM believes this approach will enable the development of end-to-end, model-based solutions as exemplified by the Rational Unified Process and our WBI Modeler, Rational, and Websphere Studio products.

CSC e4 Architecture

www.csc.com

 

Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC), headquartered in El Segundo, California, a leader in the application of Business Process Management to outsourcing and systems integration services through its CSC e4SM enterprise architecture, believes that a common language of process is critical to accelerating results from Business Process Management (BPM) initiatives. Howard Smith, co-chair of BPMI.org and CTO CSC Europe, states, “The significance of BPMN is that any enterprise architecture that supports the full lifecycle of a business process, from discovery, design, deployment and execution, to operations, interaction, optimization and analysis, necessarily consists of multiple tools that reside in a standardized Business Process Management System (BPMS) infrastructure. A common notation for processes, tied to execution, provides the business value that previously distracted business users from committing to process mapping during the era of reengineering, when there was no clear path to execution. Now that BPM systems can come alive as the result of breakthroughs by BPM members, we shall adopt BPMN as it makes its presence felt within the best of breed technologies selected for CSC e4.”
