  Business Process Management - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
BPMS allows the full business process (as developed in the process design activity) to be defined in a computer language which can be directly executed by the computer (see #standards).
In the latter case an emerging class of BPM software known as the Human Interaction Management System is used to support and monitor these processes as well as to permit their ongoing redefinition at runtime.
BPM is regarded to be the crucial backbone of enterprise content management.

 Infoconomy - Business Process Management   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
Business process management (BPM) software is growing in popularity, the market is fragmented with more than 50 vendors and, as a result, customers are understandably confused.
Over the past two years, vendors have been augmenting their BPM software with so-called BAM technology, trumpeting that this emerging technology is not merely another segment of the analytics market but the key to creating what some call the 'actively-managed enterprise'.
BPM has been heralded as a technology capable of transforming an organisation’s operations, through easing the process of mapping applications to business processes.

 CSC: New BPM Book Promises to Obliterate the Business-IT Divide
In the second wave of BPM of the past decade or so, processes were manually reengineered and, through a one-time activity, cast in concrete in the depths of today's stovepipe applications.
He adds that BPM provides an infrastructure "such that the business can discover, design, and deploy their processes and the role of IT is to provide a stable environment in which that happens."
The authors argue that a BPMS is integral to the success a process-managed enterprise and signals the advent of a new software category that will be "the cornerstone of the company of the future." The analogy is drawn to the role of the relational data management system that underpins all business applications today.
