Evaluating a business process management solutions vendor: What to ask

In the spirit of our “How To”  blog, I found a very useful article that Kristen Caretta from SearchCIO Midmarket wrote that discusses some of the steps that organizations can take to evaluate BPM vendors!

“Evaluating a Business Process Management solutions vendor: What to ask” offers suggestions from analysts at Forrester and Gartner about what questions people need to ask BPM vendors up front to ensure we are providing a good technology fit for them. 

The article recommends that people check into the vendor’s industry experience, understand their service and technology offerings and provides a number of other useful tips.

We especially appreciate the suggestion for companies to use cloud-based collaboration tools like Blueprint to help with strategic mapping and planning, as well as to help them build their business case for BPM.  In fact, we have a series of whitepapers that further explain how to get started quickly with your process documentation and prioritization, as well as what to do next.
