Enterprises seeking a greater competitive edge have frequently sought help from business process management software. These applications are intended to provide tools to assist with business process improvement – initiatives designed to significantly improve enterprise performance by radically reengineering operations and focusing on improving outcomes instead of routines. A variety of management software solutions are available to the enterprise but few offer the promise of the service-oriented architecture (SOA). In an SOA, applications new and old that otherwise may not be able to communicate with each other are reconfigured into modular services and made broadly available to users throughout the enterprise. By instituting this standards-based environment, enterprises can combine and reuse applications to refine existing business processes and create new ones. For the business management tools that support an SOA environment, industry leaders worldwide are turning to Progress Software.
