Trends in document composition

Application Accelerators versus professional services

Role of IT and Business Users is changing

• Adaptive Case Management

Empowering knowledge workers


Difference between BPM and ACM

In BPM, the process is primary. It is determined and static, and data flows through it.

- Highly predictable and highly repeatable business situations are best handled with BPM

In ACM, the data is primary. It remains persistent, and processes are brought to it.

- Unpredictable and unrepeatable business situations are best handled with ACM
