Alero Business Process
Management - Overview |
|
|
|
Alero Business Process Management (BPM) is a high-performance
solution for defining, simulating, deploying, monitoring,
tracing, and managing
simple to complex, large-scale business processes, combining power,
flexibility, and ease of use in a single solution that
saves time, cuts costs, and improves productivity.
Alero BPM is a process-centric, production-oriented
solution. Unlike document- or record-centric workflow
solutions, Alero BPM automates and expedites business
processes that require multiple data types—structured,
semi-structured and unstructured—from one or multiple sources.
Alero BPM provides support for:
sequential, parallel, and conditional routing, data
rendezvous, deadlines, data and timed events, absentee
support, notification, delegation, forms, events,
scripting, invoked applications, sub-processes, pre and
post activity processing, audit/trail, built exceptions,
reporting, and many more features.

Following are some of the applications delivered with
this solution. The Alero Web Client application is a
web-based, intuitive, and easy to use end user
application that will maximize the user experience of
working with enterprise information while minimizing the
training and support required by users. The Alero
Administration application is a web-based, user friendly
management application that simplifies and virtualizes
the administration of the system regardless of its
complexity. The Alero Process Designer, Simulator,
Monitor, Trace, and Viewer (not displayed below) are
web-based applications to design, simulate, monitor,
trace, and view processes respectively. This set of
applications can let you design, configure, simulate,
and deploy processes easily and quickly, and can report
graphically anything that you need to know about the
status of a process, instance, data, or participant.
