Workflow are everywhere, in every organization, at every level. Often, improvement in processes can lead to more efficiency, lowering costs and improving quality. Workflow automation and integration of a process may lead directly to more efficiency. And with all aspects of the process handled this way, it becomes possible to collect data about how the process works, or doesn’t work. The company can look for where and how the process can be streamlined, done more quickly, automated, and so on. This type of information can also be collected, for instance, for Business Activity Monitoring (BAM), key performance indicators, and other data useful for Business Intelligence.
With a well-integrated workflow automation, it can be possible to take data from other sources as well as directly from the process, filter out irrelevant events, perform calculations with it, and so on, both during the real-time process execution (Business Activity Monitoring), or afterward (using historical Business Intelligence data). Now more and more workflow software such as Bonitasoft and Jboss seek to integrate with BI and BAM to improve its workflow automation process.
