Business Process Solutions
ImageWork prides itself on being one of the few Independent Business Process Management solution providers on the East Coast. Our BPM solutions are highly focused creations designed to deliver for the client under all specified conditions. ImageWork believes that enforcing stringent methodology on a client based on previous implementations only leads to resistance and results in a less than optimal solution.
ImageWork is a proponent of applying "Shu-Ha-Ri" to the art of process design, development & deployment:
- Shu: traditional wisdom — learning fundamentals, techniques, heuristics, proverbs
- Ha: breaking with tradition — finding exceptions to traditional wisdom, reflecting on their truth, finding new ways, techniques, and proverbs
- Ri: transcendence — there are no techniques or proverbs, all moves are natural
What differentiates ImageWork from other solution providers is our insistence on achieving "Ri" when most others stop at "Shu". Our clients apply BPM technology to give them significant competitive advantage; this is only possible when "known" facts are absorbed, fine-tuned and then blended back into Client DNA in its optimized form. We concede that while the process of achieving "Ri" may take more iterations & require more commitment from both parties - it will yield solutions that are more intuitive, dynamic & reflect the true nuances of the business process.
ImageWork specializes in both Human-centric & System-to-System BPM Solutions:
Human-centric solutions are usually long running processes that requirement period input from users to promote a particular item through a process.
System-to-System processes run in the background of a larger operating environment and can be short or long running. These processes are "orchestrated" based on a set of business rules that determine the interaction and rules of engagement between various services & components.
