In an increasingly competitive environment, your organization's business success depends on its ability to achieve efficiencies through effective improvement and management of its processes. Metastorm ProVision® for Business Process Analysis is designed to provide the foundation for all your process improvement initiatives and accelerate your BPM Implementation.

Five part - Framework of Metastorm Provision BPA

Process Analysis is designed to provide the foundation for all your process improvement initiatives and accelerate your BPM implementation.

Metastorm ProVisionBPA provides end-to-end process modeling capabilities allowing our customers to model strategy, process and organizational responsibilities under one common framework. This superior process analysis, modeling and simulation environment is combined with industry acclaimed "ease of use" for both business and systems users. Metastorm ProVisionBPA's integrated and shareable web-based repository of process knowledge is scalable and available to the entire enterprise.

In addition to Metastorm ProVision’s tight link to the Metastorm BPM Suite, our Common Interchange Format (CIF) enables interoperability with other process automation tools as well as leading ERP and IT implementation platforms and tools. Designing optimized business processes prior to automation will ensure improved process performance and competitiveness.

Metastorm ProVisionBPA provides an integrated end-to-end process framework for continual process improvement. It is comprised of five key components:

Process Motivation

Strategic modelers document organizational goals, opportunities and problems. This strategic information can determine the impact processes will have on the strategic direction of the enterprise

Process Participants

Organization modelers provide a structured framework for identifying the organization involvement in the key processes of the enterprise. This will greatly improve the ability to see how enterprises interact with customers, suppliers and even competitors.

Process Definitions

Process/Workflow modelers allow users to visually document and (re)design end-to-end business processes to improve process performance. Organizational hand-offs and potential inefficiencies can be identified and analyzed. Different process scenarios may be developed to investigate alternative process solutions.

Process Analysis

The performance of process models can be analyzed using sophisticated Monte Carlo and discrete event simulation. Cost, timing, and resource allocation can be analyzed to identify process bottlenecks and design optimized, efficient business processes.

Design Implementation

Metastorm ProVisionBPA establishes a foundation for process improvement initiatives and accelerates BPM implementations.
