University includes Metastorm in curriculum

Saint Joseph's University Haub School of Business is incorporating Metastorm's software as part of its master's programme curriculum, reports ebizQ.

The university is using Metastorm BPM software to educate professionals on the role technology can play in improving critical human and system-based business and decision processes.

"Our work with Metastorm has given our students hands-on experience to solving business problems from a process-centric approach with technologies used in the real world," stated Ray Sarnacki, an MBA professor from Saint Joseph's University.

Butler Group, a provider of IT research, analysis and advice, and the IT End User division of Datamonitor, have released a technology audit that positions the Appian Enterprise BPM Suite as a leader in the market, states CNN Money.

This news comes on the heels of Appian's announcement of strong market momentum for Appian Europe, including the recent selection of Appian by top European companies including Swiss Re and Crawford & Company.

The report articulates Butler Group's opinion that BPM plays an important role as an alternative to static legacy systems that are limited in their functional reach, and as a result end up as inhibitors of business innovation.

Responding to a surge in demand for workflow process management software outside of the home building and construction sectors, BuilderMT has opened a new division called Incendio Technology, says Earthtimes.

Already fully staffed and operational, Incendio Technology offers business process management software and professional services to companies seeking workflow optimisation.

With success already proven in the home building and construction sectors, Incendio Technology will focus on real-time integration among disparate databases, process automation and field integration via wireless devices in any business sector, from financial services, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, to logistics and transportation.
