A business groups are faced with a dynamic, ever-changing business environment, IT groups are looking for ways to deliver new solutions while leveraging and managing their existing infrastructure. A robust Business Process Management System (BPMS) can address the needs of both groups in a collaborative manner. The question comes in to the mind that in which areas the BPM solutions are useful?

We Need Business Process Management Because

Enterprises do not have adequate understanding of or control over their processes.
BPM solves business problems not addressed by packaged software.
Know what's going on in your business to know how to stay on track.
Manage the 'entire' process, not just the fragments.
Change your processes without needing to change out your software.
Innovate in your business, do it differently, change it quickly.
Have analytics at your finger tips based on current process data.
Perform processes consistently.
Management might have a model of an ideal process, but the actual execution of that process might be strikingly different, leading toward redundancy, error, gaps, and inefficiency.
Businesses without agile control over their processes often impede their own success.
Run your business the way you want, not the way the software wants.

To understand the terminology of BPM, we can define it

“Business Process Management is the ability to have end-to-end visibility and control over all parts of a long-lived, multi-step information request or transaction that spans multiple applications and people in one or more companies.”
