Be Informed's Business Process Platform has a 'Remarkable Track Record of Success'

APELDOORN, The Netherlands, April 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading international research firm Forrester has published a report that features independent software vendor Be Informed's 'remarkable track record of success' and its acclaimed process to service customers or citizens.

Forrester's new report confirms the innovative character of the Be Informed business process platform. Forrester analyst Derek Miers states: 'Netherlands-based Be Informed has developed something truly new in the business process management suites (BPMS) marketplace.' Be Informed's dynamic case handling (DCM) offers an approach that allows organisations to optimise the deployment of their less structured, knowledge-intensive environments.

Underlining success

Two quotes from the report:

* 'Rather than exhaustively developing a different approach for each use case, the Be Informed approach embeds business rules within the semantics of the domain. Applications - and the processes that surround them - become an order of magnitude easier to build and deploy than even well-established BPM approaches.'

* 'Be Informed's approach results in simple and generic processes that are very efficient in straight through processing (STP). The implications of Be Informed's approach for time-to-value and ROI are dramatic.'

The increasing amount of customer success stories together with this Forrester report underpins the success of the Be Informed business process platform.

"Having worked as an analyst myself for many years, I understand the value of a Forrester Vendor Snapshot on Be Informed", says Frank Buytendijk, chief marketing officer at Be Informed. "Forrester is a leading international research firm and this acknowledgement of the Be Informed approach will boost the market attention for Be Informed."
