Applying Real-world Bpm in an Sap Environment

This book is a must read for anyone with an interest in business process management, strategic planning, business architecture, or enterprise architecture. The title of the book may lead a potential reader to mistakenly believe that it is entirely about SAP, but this is not the case. While all of the case studies are based on SAP implementations, this is not central to the lessons the book communicates.The hardcopy book is divided into four parts and the last six chapters are available online at the SAP website. Part 1 focuses on how to better provide strategic context to business transformation. The authors present numerous examples from both academic research and business cases, while emphasizing the key concepts necessary for strategic business transformation. Parts 2 and 3 are SAP-centric case studies that communicate the issues, risks, and benefits associated with aligning information technology enablers to the business. While there is much discussion of current SAP tools, products, and methods, I found the lessons in the book to be universal. Part 4 of the book is a very brief look at the future of BPM.I found this book to be extremely valuable in identifying and clarifying the role that value creation and competency play in strategic business design. It is worth a read from beginning to end and it has become a valuable addition to my reference library

The bookbis helpful for me, i have yet to start reading it. As i have many other SAP press books, i rate this book also as good.
