1. Introduction to Business Process Management:
1.a Benefits and Shortcomings:
Business Process Management Business Process Reengineering
Benefit The business process management is
most renowned for its ability to
enhance the agility of business
process. The enterprises which use
business process management are
more acceptable to change than its
competitors who do not. The market
and customer demands can be met
more quickly and accurately. The
business process management is
capable of detecting the issues at
initial phase and quickly provide a
solution to the issues. The result
processes of business process
management are very efficient in
terms of both capital and time.
The business process reengineering
makes sure that management and other
staff understands perfectly how their
work is done and how input collected
from them are processed. The
outcome of the business process
reengineering is streamlines and
simple processes. Efficient processes
that save time and financial resource
of an organization in terms of
completing an operation can be
achieved through business process
reengineering. As the business process
reengineering is done for creating a
process scratch. That is why the
organization can implement any ideal
solution without worrying about
current processes

correctly, otherwise the whole effort
will be wasted. Business process
management does not allow rolling
back its application. Communication

project and it is the biggest reason of

activities failing. The changes affect
the whole organization if any process
input is ignored during analysis. The
outcome measurement phases are not
capable of handling very big changes.
much more than that of business
process management. The
management have to plan everything
before implementing the final
solution. The cost of business process
reengineering is much higher than
business process management
1.b BPM vs BPR Lifecycle:
The business process management uses a phase called optimization for measuring the
accuracy and affectivity of the proposed solution. As the business process management are less
complex, optimization phase can measure the outcome efficiently. On the other hand, business
process reengineering is very complex task and includes development from scratch. Because of
this reason, the optimization phase cannot support all the inputs of business process
reengineering and often leads to error. That is why Optimization phase is included in business
process management but not in business process reengineering.
