This paper is about why software development methodologies don’t work and why they sometimes do, including a few ideas about how to turn around your own methodology efforts. Often, methodologies don’t work because managers and IT professionals hold onto beliefs, practices and organizational paradigms that no longer fit the modern software development organization and the processes that help support it.
DMV – Three letters that can strike fear in any man or woman’s heart, a term that all too often brings images of long lines and broken processes and red tape. State Departments of Motor Vehicles typically face many challenges: with lower budgets, staff reductions and increasing numbers of drivers and vehicles being registered. They face the challenge of continuing to provide quality services to the public while meeting increasingly challenging mandates from federal, state and local governments.
Part 1: Why innovation is such a challenge in a corporate setting
Howard Smith, Co-author of the landmark book, “Business Process Management: The Third Wave” has penned a definitive white paper on how companies develop operating systems for innovation. This is one paper anyone interested in business innovation cannot miss.
Goal-oriented BPM is an approach that makes the development and identification of business processes a more intuitive and natural activity. It uses familiar organizational concepts such as goals, and the steps taken to achieve those goals (sub-goals), provides granular visibility into goal progression, and allows processes to intelligently change course as events unfold. When managed and deployed appropriately, goal-oriented BPM delivers significant benefits, including:
The pressure on enterprises to improve operational efficiency and response times to new competitive threats and market opportunities has never been greater.
This pressure is forcing businesses to reevaluate the way they operate, the way IT supports their existing operations and the opportunities for current IT systems to be adapted to support longer term business evolution.
Many retailers, manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors are consistently faced with the prospect of shrinking margins. Ensuring profitability is a delicate blaancing act of inventory management, cost control, and customer satisfaction. Small improvements in warehouse and distribution center operational performance can result in large gains on the bottom line.
Companies spend more than $200 billion per year in paper processing. Billions more are lost in profit and regulatory fines from poorly managed business processes. Learn how Intelligent Documents technology can help you find any document – any time.
In defining Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) government leaders and technical practitioners need to think of SOA as part of an enterprise strategy for enabling reuse of Service Components. Government and industry organizations can leverage the Component Organization and Registration Environment (CORE) repository to publish Service Components, and establish communities of interest to register, certify, graduate and reuse components.
Business Process Management is not new – it is an established, proven discipline that combines a focus on process with an integrated set of specialized software tools to deliver real business results.
Organizations around the world and across industries have proven the value that BPM can deliver – greater efficiency, increased visibility, better control, enhanced operational agility, and measurable ROI in the range of 10-300%.
