Less radical; less disruptive; more incremental. 7
BP Management (BPM) A management system designed to sustain BPI efforts over time; Includes methods and tools to support the design, analysis, implementation, management, and continuous optimization of core BP throughout the organization; Integrates disparate BPI initiatives to ensure consistent strategy execution. 8
