3 WHY DO CUSTOMERS CHOOSE LOMBARDI BPM?
Simplicity Engagement Repeatability

4 With Lombardi, it’s not what you do that is so different. It’s how you do it. That is the big difference. At the highest level, all BPM approaches are after the same thing … but the approaches are quite different … you need to “experience the difference” when evaluating the approach that’s right for you … There are 3 main principles that have guided our approach, and we think are 3 key ingredients for success: — Director, BPM Program at a large global company 4

5 The simplest way to get started with your BPM initiative
Introduction to Lombardi Teamworks and a brief demonstration of the key capabilities in the technology. Touch on 3 quick topics: You can use all different kinds of software to build applications and systems. Teamworks is a purposed built platform to building not only process centric applications, but the right ones that solve burning business pains. A lot of applications or suites have reporting modules. Teamworks was purposed built for process improvement (defining KPIs & SLAs during design, understanding at risk work items during execution, and visualizing bottlenecks for continuous improvement) Process apps are not one and done. They are typically 90 deployments with iterations every 6-8 weeks. And a program like Allianz presented early deploy dozens. Have to have a scalable repeatable platform for an enterprise. The simplest way to get started with your BPM initiative The quickest way to deliver process applications 5

6 Inventory and Map Processes … On Demand
IBM BPM Blueprint NEW Template Library includes APQC Process Maps from IBM BPM BlueWorks Intuitive, easy-to-use views enable business users to document and analyze process details – immediately Single, shared repository becomes the “system of record” for process documentation – always up-to-date Real-time collaboration and feedback between teammates on “shared whiteboard” Cloud-based access makes it easy to add participants – on demand Export process diagrams to other modeling and implementation tools (WebSphere Business Modeler, WebSphere Lombardi Edition, …) Note: APQC stands for “American Productivity and Quality Center” Main Point: IBM BPM Blueprint is the bluewashed version of Lombardi Blueprint providing process inventory and mapping in the cloud Also includes the ability to import process maps from a Template Library that is sourced from IBM BPM BlueWorks IBM BPM Blueprint Every company needs to understand and document its processes. Whether for a process improvement project, to create visibility, or train new employees, process documentation is an essential part of a company’s process excellence. But why is it so difficult to document those processes? Today’s tools aren’t designed to be simple, structured, and usable by the average person. IBM BPM Blueprint changes that with a tool that documents just like outlining in PowerPoint or Word. Blueprint brings a simple no-hassle method to process documentation and discovery. What’s new? IBM BPM Blueprint, formerly Lombardi Blueprint, is now a new IBM web based on-demand offering designed to let anyone in your company document processes. Users can outline processes as easily as outlining in PowerPoint or Word – tools familiar to everyone. No extensive training is needed – structured inputs help users focus on documenting instead of determining what to document. Since workflow diagrams are automatically generated, there is no need to learn workflow or process methodologies. And as a web based tool, Blueprint is easily accessible and deployable to users across your company requiring only internet access and a browser. Blueprint also serves as a process repository – a central location to store your documentation. There is no need to manage s, documents, or versions as Blueprint handles this for you. With such a simple tool, you can now scale your documentation efforts by leveraging users from across the organization. No longer does a central team need to consolidate process documentation from multiple individuals and groups to get a coherent view of a process. Now you can leverage the expertise of subject matter experts by having them document their understanding of the process themselves and utilize the central team for best practices and standards. The simplicity of Blueprint makes it possible to document processes even when there are no dedicated resources assigned to the task. What’s significant? When organizations are looking to implement a BPM, service oriented architecture (SOA), or other large scale solution, process discovery, workflow diagramming, collaboration and documentation is essential to the success of these projects and Blueprint is an ideal tool for these needs. Within a few hours, you can deploy and train users to begin documenting their understanding of a process. As a web based tool, the speed of deployment is as quick as adding new users to an account. And since Blueprint is simple and requires little training, companies can leverage everyone involved in the process – from the executive level to subject matter experts and process architects. Start with the high-level process map and drill down into the detailed workflow diagram when ready. And when process discovery is completed, export the workflow diagram using industry standards like XPDL and BPMN 2.0. For IBM WebSphere Lombardi Edition users, direct integration is available to subscribe to Blueprint processes directly from WebSphere Lombardi Edition. Structured inputs for simple documenting, always current, “evergreen” documentation Automatically generated workflow diagrams Process repository with a central location, access control: set “author” or “participant” view Automatically generated PowerPoint presentations Blueprint's ease-of-use, browser-based delivery and wiki-like structure have changed this and allow stakeholders inside and outside your organization as well as across functions, campuses and even oceans to collaboratively participate in process improvement. Blueprint takes the practice of process from the hands of the few and spreads it throughout your organization. In effect, the Blueprint platform becomes the central communication platform for collecting, sharing and improving how work gets done in your organization. What are the benefits? Easy to use -- Designed to be simple enough so people who have direct knowledge of a process, but may not be familiar with process mapping, can work on the same process Because it is a cloud-based application, it is accessible from any browser anywhere, no software with access control with both author and participant views Centralized and collaborative -- Acts as the central repository for all process related assets. Keeps you up to date -- When you log in you are able to see immediately who has made a change or commented on a process you’re working on. Bring data in, take data out -- Import and manipulate Visio diagrams, output data to PowerPoint, Word, Excel, PDF, XPDL, or BPMN 2.0 for execution in WebSphere Lombardi Edition Who is this designed for? Mid-to-large-sized enterprises in any industry that want to stay competitive and to rapidly change their business processes to respond to a variety of market and business demands will need business process management capabilities to address their business opportunities and challenges. The idea behind Blueprint is that the greater the number of stakeholders who collaboratively participate in and contribute to process discovery, the greater the quality of your business process improvement efforts. Traditionally, due to their complicated nature, process mapping tools have been used only by a select group of individuals and did little to provide for collaboration.
