AgilePoint BPMS Governance

Governance in relation to BPM is the action of developing and administering policies, processes, and procedures for BPM initiatives. As a process, AgilePoint BPMS governance may be carried out for any size organization from a single human being to a large multi-department enterprise. The purpose of governance is to ensure that the organization produces a consistent pattern of good results by following standardized processes and procedures for implementing AgilePoint as an enterprise-wide BPM solution.

Below are some basic principles for effective AgilePoint BPM governance:

  1. The project needs an executive champion. It is not just an IT project. This is important for achieving buy-in from anyone affected by the implementation. Without buy-in the business process management initiative won't succeed.
  2. Put someone in charge with authority to enforce BPM governance rules. Creating a BPM project team will help deal with these challenges. The team's key responsibilities include dealing with major business process management governance such as deployment considerations, setting project milestones, and measuring performance.
  3. Establish standard procedures and channels to follow for implementing new BPM projects.
  4. Clearly define the roles and responsibilities of everyone involved in a BPM project. Each BPM project needs managing with proper ownership of tasks, planning, and control.

These principles provide a basis for facilitating the effective collaboration needed to achieve success in deploying AgilePoint BPM related projects.
