Managing business processes in an efficient and consistent manner is a core requirement for any enterprise organization—particularly in environments where thousands or millions of transactions take place every day. Although automating repetitive processes can help, the key is to implement a solution that is powerful enough to accommodate complex processes, flexible enough to handle ongoing change, and easy enough for users to embrace.

Alero’s process solutions address this very problem. Alero’s process solutions deliver immediate routing capabilities to any information available to the product, regardless of where the information is stored and managed (where the information comes from.) By providing a rich set of process services for data and processes, Alero simplifies the definition, configuration and implementation of complex BPM initiatives. And deployment is a snap: Alero’s process solutions can be embedded into a business application in a matter of hours or days, making BPM capabilities immediately available.

Imagine being able to control the flow of information among organizations, applications, and people, providing an efficient and productive environment in which employees, customers, vendors and suppliers exchange the right information in a secure, reliable, and accountable manner. Alero can do just that without the complexities imposed by other BPM solutions.

The Alero process solutions implement the business process management (BPM) capabilities of the product. Following is a brief description of the process solutions and applications provided by Alero Technology.

• Business Process Management services facilitate the routing of information and include services for sequential, parallel, conditional and rendezvous routing; looping; deadlines; dependencies; absentee support; notification; delegation; forms support; event scripting; invoking applications and sub-processes; complete audit and trail; and eight different levels of exceptions.

• The Alero Process Designer application is a web-based application for designing processes graphically, including designing, configuring, validating, deploying, importing, exporting, and printing processes.
• The Alero Process Simulator application is a web-based application for simulating processes graphically, including simulating scenarios based on what-ifs, reporting (projections, costs, etc.), importing, and exporting scenarios.
• The Alero Process Monitor application is a web-based application for monitoring process graphically, including the number of instances and their status, queue levels, reporting, activity statistics, user statistics, etc.
• The Alero Process Trace application is a web-based application for tracing a specific instance of a process graphically, including specific instance information such as the path taken, activity or step details, a complete audit and trail, reporting, data, etc.
• The Alero Process Viewer application is a web-based application for viewing process graphically.

Although Alero’s process solutions can be acquired and used independently to meet specific routing requirements, when used together with the other Alero solutions, you gain the synergistic benefits of leveraging your entire enterprise information resources and data—objects, documents, records and transactions—into your enterprise processes, creating an integrated business environment in which employees, customers, suppliers and vendors can most effectively and securely exchange information.
