Enhancing BPM With a Business Rule Engine

Overview Business rules permeate and surround business processes. They can be used to initiate processes, to aggregate and interpret the effect of multiple running processes, and as discrete steps within business processes, the subject of this white paper. Including a Business Rule Engine (BRE) as part of a Business Process Management (BPM) deployment ensures consistent application of policies, increases automation and improves the agility of the BPM suite. This white paper explores the fundamental characteristics of business rules as they relate to BPM, suggests core requirements for a process-centric BRE, and describes how TIBCO iProcess Decisions addresses those core requirements.
