Session 5 – Business Process Management and BI Integration: Beyond Technology
After more than a decade of Business Process Reengineering, workflow automation, Six Sigma, Lean Management and the other popular approaches and methodologies, these days, more and more business leaders are starting to adopt a holistic approach to Business Process Management (BPM). Thus, BPM has evolved to include four highly intertwined components: strategy, people, value-adding processes and technology for BP support, including process-oriented BPM systems and, in recent times, BI tools.
This presentation aims to expand the boundaries of BI and BPM integration beyond technology. It will cover a very brief overview of the latest thinking in BPM before focusing on different types of business processes (BPs) and their associated information and decision support needs. This will be then used to demonstrate how to determine the most appropriate type of BI solution for different types of BPs in order to maximise possibilities for business value creation as well as help organisations to expand their BI solutions from departmental/functional units to the enterprise level and beyond.

Session 6 – BI Leaders Panel – best practices, pitfalls and future trends
Today′s uncertain marketplace is driving change in virtually all organizations. To manage persistent change, companies rely on their business intelligence (BI) solutions more than ever before. As BI evolves from a solution used by a limited few to pervasive BI–where everyone in the company, at all levels, in all departments, benefits from using BI on a daily basis–traditional tools on legacy systems cannot meet user demands.
There are many facets and components to enterprise BI. Please join our panel for an open discussion with Technology providers and BI Implementation specialists on best practice, pitfalls and future trends.
