Introduction

Introduction

Ovum provides a complete view of vendor capabilities and advises on those you should explore, consider and, most importantly, shortlist.

Highlights

Ovum views the BPM market as very competitive, but comparably fragmented, with several BPM specialists featuring among the leaders. However, Ovum did note that the stratification within the leading vendors profiled is increasingly apparent.

The most successful BPM vendors seem to be those that combine excellent core BPM modules with the key competitive differentiators from the adjacent competency areas. In addition, Ovum emphasises the importance of a clearly articulated approach to BPM, particularly those responding directly to the needs and requirements of business departments.
