Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) & BPM

Seamless Integration of All Your Business Processes

Enterprise Resource Planning (EPR) systems are a great solution but, often times they are not enough. Many business processes exist outside the application and cannot be managed by a single application. ERP systems provide great benefits for specialized, high value transactions they were designed to control. However, companies also have many cross-functional processes that exist “outside” the application. This is where BPM steps in. In the BPM ecosystem, large enterprise applications handle certain, specialized processes while Ultimus BPM is added to manage full business process optimization including process that:

  • Are Cross departmental
  • Require more agility
  • Need the ability to respond to exceptions and change
