BPM Day 2009

BPM Day is a vendor-neutral executive seminar on Business Process Management, Automation, and Innovation. It’s the third time I’m organizing this at Stevens Institute of Technology In Hoboken, NJ, and I’m really excited to have the backing of industry experts Keith Swenson, Robert Shapiro, and Nathaniel Palmer for this event. Hoboken is a 15 minute subway ride from Manhattan, the venue is our state-of-the-art center for technology management, and feedback from our last group of guests has been overwhelmingly positive. If you are in the tri-state-area and can spare a day to learn about BPM this is a great opportunity for you. Follow the link for the full announcement.

BPM = Performance, Compliance, Risk Management

When times are tough, organizations need to focus on their core competencies, improve their value proposition and do more with less. Business Process Management helps organizations understand their operational strengths and weaknesses, creates a documentation for compliance purposes, and allows for effective operational risk management. For the fifth year in a row, the Gartner Group has identified improving Business Processes as the number one priority of CIOs. Stevens’ BPM Day series combines speakers from industry and academia to deliver attendees a full-day of in-depth sessions on current and emerging topics around BPM. In 2009 the third instance of BPM Day is presented by leaders from Stevens and the Workflow Management Coalition, a global standardization body for BPM technology. Their popular seminars have been delivered in more than 8 countries over the last two years, covering the core business impact and IT benefits of process improvement and workflow automation.

Attendees of this year’s seminar have the choice between two in-depth breakout sessions: One on analyzing processes with BPMN, the other on building a workflow automation infrastructure using standards-based tools and technologies.

Participants will receive a WfMC certificate to document the successful completion of the seminar.
