Adaptive and Agile – Continuous ROI for Your Company
When it comes to delivering long term value on enterprise software, applications must be able to adapt in order to avoid costly replacements. Business Process Management technology should be flexible enough to handle exceptions, manage change, and address the evolving requirements of the entire user community. The Ultimus Adaptive BPM Suite is made up of a unique set of technologies that provides the ability to adapt to the workflow changes required by a growing organization. This gives your company the agility to respond easily and swiftly to organizational shifts, competitive threats, innovations in your industry, and governmental mandates.
Specifically, Ultimus adapts to:
- People - the needs of the people involved in making decisions and driving workflow;
- Ecosystems - the front-end and back-end systems in your company; and
- Change - the inevitable changes in roles, responsibilities, policies, procedures, regulatory requirements, and new or modified IT systems.
To support adaptability and quick response time to changes, Ultimus’ BPM Software Suite offers a number of repositories that store process artifacts and data. Flexible user interfaces allow easy access so that these artifacts can be modified, reused, tested and redeployed from one central location. This usable, code-free interface makes it easier and faster to access and deploy changes to the process components.
