Why BPM is the way to manage and control robots?

Robotics is the most business focused environment in the world. Why? Because the only thing robots know and do is business, simply by virtue of their design and definition. Just imagine a robot walking along a street or watching TV for a leisure. It is an oxymoron. The ability to make something outside of business imperative is most important and fundamental ability distinguishing humans from machines.

Therefore, BPM language is the most natural and efficient language to interact with robots. Intentionally or arbitrarily, the world of robots has already shaped as a BPM world from very beginning. It is only matter of terminology to recognize it as such or devise another dedicated synonym. Of course, BPM notations tailored for robotic automation have their own specifics. But it is mere an issue of relevant notation, rather than principal applicability.

Management and control of robots is an exclusive field where BPM blossoms in its uncompromising clearness and unrivaled shine of perfection.

Agile Processes and Customer Experience

Despite all fashionable favor, agile processes are a disaster in terms of customer outcomes . Imagine that you ordered a fridge but received a dishwasher instead. It is unlikely that you will be happy on this sort of creative agility. Customer process must be as precise and reliable as a Swiss clock. It is another story that customers always do their best to break this clock's precision in every possible and impossible manner: change their mind ten times a day, disappear at the moment of delivery, break supplied goods and claim a refund etc. And yet, customers highly appreciate flexibility of a company in response to their instant whims. We must not confuse agility of customers with precision of the company in response to agile client demands. Company can achieve accuracy and flexibility in serving clients only through rigorous process approach with detailed mapping of all possible client scenarios. Naturally, this detailed work-through may yield dozens and even hundredths of co...

Difference between workflow and process

Workflow is an implementation of process. Process is a template defining structure, rules, objects and their relations in a business environment associated with certain business goal or case. Workflow is a concrete realization of process in given business context. In other words, process is a plan, while workflow is a sequence of business actions taken according to this plan. Process is an architectural project, while workflow is a building created on this architecture. Multiple buildings can be erected from the same architecture. Unlimited sequences of actions can run along the same plan. But the plan or architecture behind all these varieties of buildings and sequences is a common ground cementing their distinguished similarity as a family.
