What do you like best about IBM Business Automation Workflow (BAW)?

About 80% of IT resources are engaged in maintaining the applications, tools, systems and infrastructure that are already in place. That leaves only a very small percentage of IT resources available to respond to business needs and new development. What if there was a way to take advantage of the knowledge and expertise of those who do the work every day and enable them to make changes for process improvement? This cannot be realized with today’s applications. That is why most organizations resort to spread sheets and e-mails to manage process execution. BPM empowers the business with technology that allows IT to deliver more effective and efficient solutions and, ultimately, provide IT with more time to develop and implement new business ideas.
