Definition
BPM treats processes as managed assets rather than informal habits. It defines ownership, standards, measures, exception paths, and an improvement cycle.
Why it matters
Technology produces more durable value when it supports a process that has clear ownership and a way to improve.
Business example
A company assigns an owner for customer onboarding, tracks cycle time weekly, and evolves the process as its services change.
When to use it
Use it when a recurring process crosses teams, affects customers, or needs consistent performance.
When not to use it
Do not turn simple, low-risk work into a heavy governance exercise.
How Automathing approaches it
