Business Process Mapping (BPM) software is only a tool that aids in the graphical display of a process and it does not provide the answer on how to improve a process. This results from the assessment of the process by an individual with experience of business processes, which is typicall not the programmer of the BPM software application.
Enterprise problems are typically caused because of the flawed implementation of an Enterprise level Software Package. This software package was believed to be the solution to a previous problem.
A flawed implementation includes bad employee training, inconsistent integration, and incomplete understanding of the company’s business needs and processes.
