Ultimus Launches Adaptive Business Process Management Suite

Business Wire, May 1, 2007

Adapting to Change - The Adaptive BPM Suite provides significant flexibility in handling exceptions and managing the change required to keep processes up to date. Specifically, every component in a process, from roles, rules, steps, flow and forms, to integrations and data models, are all subject to change. The Ultimus Adaptive BPM Suite has systematically extracted core capabilities from the embedded process and exposed them in flexible, easy-to-use interfaces and features. This enables people across the business and IT teams to handle exceptions and change much more readily. The innovative Adaptive Discovery technology allows both analysts and IT to change rules in real time, but through two separate interfaces which allows the analyst to make simple changes and IT to deal with more complex changes. This offering recognizes Unruly Events[TM] triggered during simulations and offers users test scenarios in simulation to build and change rules as necessary. It also provides rules versioning capabilities as well as expanded organizational charts with business charts, AD/LDAP and custom directories.

"The Adaptive BPM Suite is far more powerful than anything we or our competitors have ever offered. It takes into account the three key elements of process success - people, systems and change," said Rashid Khan, CEO and co-founder, Ultimus Inc. "The technology not only supports the historic elements of business process management, but leads the market well into the future with the addition of reporting, collaboration and real-time incident control. It also supports the goal of every IT and business executive - immediate ROI."

The Adaptive BPM Suite is scheduled for release in Q3 2007. In the meantime, for more information go to www.ultimus.com or call (919) 678-0900.
