Business Process Management Summit reflects trends
The Gartner Group plans a Business Process Management Summit June 27 to 28 2006 in London.
In January 2006 the Gartner CIO Survey showed Business Process Improvement is seen by CIOs as the number one business priority in 2006.
Therefore Gartner will be holding its first European BPM Summit, as a follow-on event to the American summit in June 2005.
According to Gartner, BPM is seen as a management discipline that can “subsume” Six Sigma and Lean techniques. Organizations new to BPM should implement initiatives across the organization rather than in “silos” at a tactical level. BPM helps organizations compete on the basis of superior business process, leading to reduction in inefficiency, errors, duplication of standards and work, complexity, and risk and improved factual reporting, agility, alignment, productivity, and compliance.
The scope of the summit is reported with registration information on the Gartner site.
