Dear Colleagues,

As the BPM marketplace moves from early adopter to an early majority phase, there are more and more new professionals joining forces with experienced practitioners and managers to change what their organizations do and how they do it. They are starting to make a difference in business performance for their organizations’ stakeholders. At this spring’s IIR BPM conference, which is our tenth, all groups will have an opportunity to learn from respected BPM authors and leaders, as well as collaborate with seasoned members of organizations finding and delivering new business value in a world of unprecedented pressure and rising expectations.

For the newcomers the good news is that, by now, there is a set of reliable principles that provide a set of base guidelines to make BPM repeatable and trustworthy. For the veterans, the good news is that the state of BPM is ever-evolving and that peer organizations are learning the subtleties of advanced approaches to continually improve the processes of process. For business and IT managers alike, the associated management of process assets is becoming a management discipline itself that the leaders can describe, demonstrate and repeat.

This event has been designed with all three groups in mind:
  • Collect the Dots: All of you must understand what your processes are and how they work enterprise-wide, process by process and at the implementation of change levels.
  • Connect the Dots: All of you must also be able to see how the pieces fit.
  • Correct the Dots: You must all then try to improve on what you have discovered

The conference has been designed to bring new knowledge to every level of experience and skill. Customize your week by selecting sessions from our three key tracks:

Building a Process-Centric Enterprise

This track will trace the formulation and continuous optimization of BPM as an ongoing strategic capability within your organization. It will follow the lifecycle from strategic intent to business context understanding to business architecture, measurement, and management, as well as governance, motivating and managing people from the top to the bottom and across the organization chart.

Achieving Success in Process Projects
This track will break down what it takes to successfully complete both simple and complex process improvement and redesign initiatives. We will outline the process for determining process project goals and objectives, establishing project scope, gathering and validating information, building models for analysis, design as well as specification.

Skills for the BPM Practitioner

This track will cover essential core techniques and approaches as well as the skills to be effective. Key techniques involving interviewing, facilitation and brainstorming will be examined as well as an analysis of tools and key success factors are a few key takeaways from this track.

Setting BPM Apart…
We are proud to unveil a speaker faculty comprised of incredible industry leaders featuring case studies from leading organizations that have struggled with implementation challenges but have overcome them to make it work. And as always, with the addition of numerous opportunities for facilitated and unstructured peer to peer collaboration and the opportunity to experience the latest in enabling BPM technologies you will discover why this event is repeatedly the top rated of all in the marketplace.

We encourage you to join us in Orlando in May and find out what the buzz is all about!
