Google gets workflow wings with KiSSFLOW. Can they democratize BPM?
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in BPM, Business, Cloud Computing, Platform-as-a-Service, Technology, Trends on September 11, 2012
An April Fool’s joke from last year, my post on Google entering BPM with Noodle, continues to get views every day. I always wonder how many readers may be taking it seriously, it was a joke after all. Some of what I wrote was, and still is, plausible. Meanwhile, though, Google and their partners continue […]
Google leapfrogs into BPM with Noodle!
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in BPM, Business, Innovation, Marketing, Technology on April 1, 2011
Google has finally arrived into the Enterprise space with their Enterprise BPM offering called Noodle (named after process spaghetti!). They have silently put together their technology and shaped them beautifully into what we have been missing “in one single platform” for a long time. Here’s a sneak-peek at what they have unleashed out of the blue… […]
What comprises the Definitive Core of BPM?
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in Architecture, BPM, Business, Technology on March 6, 2011
what is the definitive core set which needs to exist in any initiative to call it BPM, without a vendor or a solution provider or an analyst requiring to label it as such, and exclusively so? And why this question now?
Case v/s Process – Not about Architecture & Tools, It’s Culture
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in Architecture, BPM, Business, Design, Leadership, Management, Technology on May 13, 2010
There are tools that have capability to do Process Management in structured manner, and there are tools with capability to perform dynamic case management. What you need depends on how you want to treat the situations and incidents. You want Case Management culture or Process Management culture – that’s the key. Everything could be treated like a case, and everything could follow a process. What do you want?

Will Social Networking Wave Wash Away Centers of Excellence?
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in BPM, Business, Innovation, Leadership, Management, Technology on April 19, 2010
Theo Priestly brought up a stirring point and claimed that social wave while removing silos will also bring the extinction of the COEs. Well, I disagree. In this post I cover the premise of BPM COE, and the the reasons I do not believe that BPM COEs could get washed away with the social wave.
Defining BPM and State thereof – The Perspectives at Play
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in Architecture, BPM, Business, Leadership, Management, Technology on April 13, 2010
With so many perspectives at play and with BPM community comprising multiple sub-communities with heterogeneous views, it is darn too difficult to define BPM that covers all the aspects and still satisfies everyone. When it comes to defining BPM, it will always be in a certain context and when a customer looks for the right definition the question that needs to be asked is – what’s your business’s objective, and what’s the problem you’re trying to solve. BPM, at the end of the day needs to make the business more agile &responsive and business processes more efficient and flexible.
Do not treat Process Solutions as Applications
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in BPM, Business, Management, Technology on April 9, 2010
It’s very difficult for everyone involved to get out of the application mindset that has got deeply ingrained with years of training and repeated beating-in. I’m afraid this gets further legitimized with Rapid Application Development (RAD) and Composite Applications Development through BPMS gaining acceptance. But, if you actually want a process management solution, don’t treat it as an Application.
Social is a Phenomenon, not another Discipline/Practice!
Posted by Ashish Bhagwat in BPM, Business, Technology on March 25, 2010
Yesterday in Forrester #crmjam on Twitter, Social (networking, not cause!) aspects got a lot of attention. One of the converging points, as per Theo, is around social BPM and social CRM. This is correct, however, IMO, Social is a Phenomenon and not a discipline. What should remain – when we are done with this phenomenon – is the set of disciplines that are better placed to collaborate and synergize toward customer centricity.
