Maintaining profitability, increasing productivity and cutting costs require businesses to change in fundamental ways - structurally, operationally and culturally. These changes necessitate the ability to rapidly create and deploy new business strategies, which require dynamic and agile business processes. This process is often complicated by the rigid and complex systems that are tightly coupled and difficult to change without huge investments of time and money.

That was the case with Ball State University, who struggled with unusually high failure rates during the online student registration process. BSU lacked the ability to automate their processes, integrate with legacy systems and a way to apply the correct business rules to the registration process itself.

For Ball State University, process automation and optimization were logical entry points to start their BPM project. Utilizing a BPM solution powered by the Smart SOA™ approach running on IBM System z, Ball State was able to choreograph, streamline and automate business processes in the student registration process.

Join this Web Seminar to hear, directly from BSU, how they were able to model their current process and identify opportunities to automate and even eliminate steps, reducing what previously took days to complete down to a matter of minutes and significantly reducing the failure rate, while maximizing ROI. Learn how this BPM solution can work for your organization.
