Does your Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system actually do what you want it to do? ERP applications were supposed to seamlessly solve all of our supply chain, order management, and deal approval processes. But these processes cross departments, people and functions, yet your ERP systems do not. So how well are ERP applications really working for you?
If you want to crush your competition, it is imperative that you tune into this webcast and learn how Business Process Management (BPM) is the missing link for making ERP work. BPM helps you articulate, automate and optimize processes across silos, systems and functions so you can finally achieve the cost savings, efficiencies, and agility you were meant to have.
If you are trying to attain agility through Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), BPM can help you bridge the gap in your ERP systems at a low total cost of ownership and with a rapid implementation time.
Attend this eye-opening webcast with Savvion and AMR analyst Bill Swanton to:
- Make your SAP or other ERP systems actually work the way your people and customers want it to work.
- Bridge the gap between SOA strategies for agility and your existing ERP infrastructure ˆ within 90 days
- Learn 5 actionable steps to make process management ˆ both the discipline and the technology - work within your unique corporate culture
- Hear how leading companies today are making their ERP systems actually work by employing both BPM strategies and technologies

Many Business Process Management (BPM) vendors talk about how their software allows you to optimize processes with just the click of a button. But the reality is business improvement involves collaboration and involves other groups and decision-makers.
Attend this provocative webcast with Savvion and independent BPM consultant and blogger Sandy Kemsley to learn how optimizing and fine-tuning processes can be accomplished in reality – not the way some vendors would have you believe.
Done in conjunction with eBizQ:
Once the realm of historical analysis, BI seems slated to become the next killer app for SOA. BI information can be offered as services and easily included in mash-ups, or delivered as part of a running BPM process. This panel will discuss the evolving capabilities of BI, and how it can provide added value to BPM and SOA solutions.

Much has been written about businesses transforming into “agile enterprises.” But beyond the pie in the sky buzzwords, what does this mean for companies striving to bring world-class goods or services to the market?

Technologists know that Service-oriented architecture (SOA) promises to give organizations a way to mix and match services for more agility – by relying less on packaged apps and more on reusable services. But you may be scratching your head on how to sell this premise to business people who just see another technology acronym with huge dollar signs attached. Start speaking their language and show them how business process management (BPM) allows everyone to solve real, quantifiable business problems via an SOA strategy.
Attend this event and see how leading companies start with BPM in order to sell the SOA vision – so they can get business people to be more specific in what they need out of their systems in order to obtain measurable efficiencies and improvements. You’ll learn how talking BPM to the business instead of SOA can help you prove value and fund your architecture planning. Here’s how:
SOA promises a clean, agile enterprise. And no one will argue that “more control” and “more flexibility” are noble goals – but they mean different things to IT than they do to the business: IT wants architectural flexibility, reduced maintenance costs, and reusable services; Business people want to process orders faster, improve product quality, or cross-sell more products and services. Learn how industry leaders are using BPM to give business people a role in the enterprise SOA strategy - changing SOA from a techno-buzzword into business reality.
- Learn the common causes to why SOA initiatives fail and how to avoid them
- Discover why the business doesn’t care about SOA, but does care about process improvement
- Construct a baseline definition for key SOA strategy components that business people can understand
- Learn how BPM can serve as a translator between IT and the Business so everyone gets what they want
- Hear first-hand how leading organizations get executive buy-in for their SOA initiatives by presenting them in a process context to show real, measurable business results
