Metastorm BPM is a Business Process Management (BPM) systems platform for automating people-intensive administrative and management processes. It is a flexible production-strength BPM system, supporting a very large number of processes, users, and transactions. It can access data from any ODBC data source, make use of external forms, integrate at an API level with a number of document management systems, and exchange mail with most email clients.
More importantly it can easily integrate all these systems via one simple user interface, then present that interface to the user in either Internet Explorer or MS Outlook. With Metastorm’s Watch List, managers can also continuously monitor events in their business units and intervene when necessary in any process, at any time. Metastorm BPM forms are created using the designer.
Forms are re-usable across steps and processes. Once designed, a Metastorm BPM form can be displayed through any client (Outlook, Explorer or GroupWise). Users can mix and match clients and the forms are built once. For flexibility, external forms can also be used and intermixed with Metastorm BPM forms in one process before being linked directly to the Metastorm BPM engine.
Metastorm BPM is a fully featured, easy-to-use designer that allows its users to define their procedures by visualising them as a graphical map, then adding the detail behind each stage and action using a wizard. Furthermore, the platform uses a state transition diagram to describe the process flow. This means that actions can be directly mapped, rather than being hidden in event condition tables and action buttons can be automatically generated on Metastorm BPM forms.
